Property Oversight

Independent eyes on the property — on a schedule

Recurring visual oversight for portfolios and absentee owners: accessible interior, exterior, site, and amenity conditions documented so small issues do not stay invisible across one home or many.

What oversight includes

  • —Scheduled visual property checks
  • —Accessible interior / exterior / site / amenity review
  • —Photography and visible issue identification
  • —Persistent finding IDs and digital property record
  • —Maintenance calendar and vendor access support
  • —Storm / post-event checks when safe and available
  • —Annual condition review and verification on future visits

What happens onsite

A consistent field method—not a turnover walkthrough and not a transaction inspection.

    Intake

    Owner/manager intake and review of known work, open issues, and recent repairs.

    Approximately 1 hour onsite for a visual, non-invasive review of accessible interior, exterior, site, and amenity conditions.

    Classification

    Each finding classified separately by condition, required timing, and workflow status.

    Handoff

    Your report is delivered within 5 business days of the property visit, followed by a brief owner report-review call.

  8. 08

    Annual verification

Onsite duration

Systems
Accessible equipment and controls are visually observed. Equipment, systems, and alarms are not tested.
Inaccessible areas
Spaces that cannot be safely accessed—including attics and crawlspaces unless expressly included—are recorded as not reviewed.
Roof / aerial
Roof observations are included where safely visible from the ground. Permitted aerial capture may be added when specifically scoped.

What is reviewed—and what is not

Whole-property visual review of accessible conditions. Observation type is explicit on every item.

Typically observed

  • —Roof observations where safely visible from the ground
  • —Gutters, downspouts, and visible drainage discharge
  • —Exterior walls, trim, doors, windows, decks, stairs, and railings
  • —Driveways, walkways, patios, surface drainage, and site water management
  • —Interior finishes, high-use guest areas, kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry
  • —Visible staining, damage, deterioration, or repeated temporary repairs
  • —Accessible mechanical equipment and controls as visually observed
  • —Smoke and carbon-monoxide alarm presence where visible and accessible
  • —Accessible pool, spa, patio, dock, and specialty amenity areas as visually observed

Property oversight visits are visual and non-invasive. Equipment, systems, and alarms are not operated or tested.

What it is not

  • —Not a licensed home inspection
  • —Not an engineering assessment
  • —Not a code inspection
  • —Not a guarantee that all defects will be found
  • —Not a substitute for qualified specialists

When a finding appears to require licensed evaluation, it is classified and referred—not diagnosed beyond visual scope.

Smoke and carbon-monoxide alarm presence is observed where visible and accessible. Testing, placement verification, functionality, and code compliance are excluded.
