Happy Halloween 👻 🎃 from Home Watch Academy! 🎃👻

10/28/2026

Home Watch looks simple: visit the house, make sure everything’s okay.

But what happens when you miss a slow leak? When a homeowner asks about your insurance? When you’re not sure what to charge, or what belongs in your contract?

You don’t know what you don’t know. The Home Watch Business Owner course covers what most new business owners learn the hard way, from household operations and the professional Home Watch Visit to insurance, pricing, and winning clients. You even get a customizable contract and Client Presentation Packet.

Learn from the trainer who’s been teaching Home Watch Professionals since 2008.

5 Steps to Starting a Home Watch Business

Thinking about starting your own Home Watch business? Building a professional business takes more than a business name and a certificate.

1. Begin With Specialized Education
Learn the principles of Home Watch, including scheduled visits to unoccupied homes, visual observations, documentation, client communication, and business operations.

2. Establish Your Business
Complete the appropriate business registrations, obtain suitable insurance and bonding, and understand your professional responsibilities and the scope of your coverage.

3. Develop Consistent Reporting Practices
Document visible conditions, include relevant photographs, recognize changes and patterns over time, and promptly communicate concerns. Professional reporting is an essential part of Home Watch.

4. Price for Sustainability
Consider travel, reporting, insurance, software, administrative responsibilities, continuing education, and your time. Build your pricing around the value of professional service rather than competing on the lowest fee.

5. Build Relationships and Trust
Connect with local professionals, clearly explain your services, and demonstrate professionalism through consistent visits, documented observations, and dependable communication.

Trained eyes. Consistent visits. Documented observations.

Ready to build your Home Watch business on a foundation of professional education?

The Home Watch Academy Home Watch Business Owner Course provides on-demand education to help you understand the responsibilities, practices, and business decisions involved in starting and operating a Home Watch company.

Start with the education. Build with confidence.

“I’m not ready to retire. I’m ready for my next chapter.”

Your experience has value. Your attention to detail has purpose. Your next chapter could be a Home Watch business, built independently or together as a couple.

But a successful start takes more than a business name and a certificate.

At Home Watch Academy, preparation centers on The Exceptional Home Watch Visit: learning to make thoughtful visual observations, recognize changes, document findings and communicate concerns promptly.

Risk management is part of that foundation—from understanding the scope of your services to establishing clear agreements and consistent business practices.

And graduation opens the door to more. Through our Graduate Resources, you can continue learning, access business and marketing materials, and receive guidance as new questions arise.

For graduates who meet the requirements, the Certified Home Watch Reporter™ designation is a further step—verifying both the professional and the business.

Build your next chapter on preparation, supported by experience.

🌟 New connections, familiar faces, and a cause close to my heart!

I attended the Naples Business Expo, sponsored by the Grow Business Network, and it was a fabulous event! 🤝

🏡 Robert Powell from Qubic Home Watch had a booth, and we enjoyed chatting with some seasonal homeowners about Home Watch.

💻 Our own Vicky Cardone was there promoting her company, Vicky.ai, and Kurt Voight from Watchtower Home Watch came out to show his support!

❤️ I loved making new connections and catching up with friends I’ve known through various networking groups over the years. Those relationships make events like this even more special.

The event was also a fundraiser for Biz Kidz, a project very close to my heart. Supporting young entrepreneurs while connecting with our business community? That’s a wonderful combination! 🌱👏

𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗛𝗢𝗠𝗘 𝗜𝗦 𝗜𝗡𝗦𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗗. 𝗕𝗨𝗧 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗜𝗡𝗦𝗨𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗨𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗬 𝗣𝗔𝗬?🥴

You pay your premiums. You have homeowners’ insurance. You assume that if something goes wrong while you’re away, your policy will take care of it.

But do you know what your policy actually covers?

Insurance policies may contain conditions, exclusions, or requirements that matter when a home is left unoccupied.

Imagine a pipe bursting while you’re away. Water runs for days before anyone discovers it. Microbial growth, including mold, may develop. The damage grows.

Whether that loss is covered depends on your policy and the circumstances—not simply whether you paid your premiums.

Then comes the question from the insurance adjuster:

“When was the last time someone checked on the home?”

Depending on the policy, the circumstances, and the type of damage, that answer could matter more than you realize.

This is why professional Home Watch services are not simply a luxury for second homeowners.

Before leaving your home, ask your insurance agent:

▪️ Are there conditions or requirements for leaving my home unoccupied?
▪️ How does my policy address water damage, ongoing leaks, and microbial growth, including mold?
▪️ What steps am I responsible for taking while I’m away?

This is also where professional Home Watch brings value.

A Certified Home Watch Reporter conducts scheduled visits, documents visual observations, recognizes obvious issues, and reports findings promptly. Early recognition gives homeowners an opportunity to address a concern before the damage becomes more extensive.

Does hiring a Home Watch professional guarantee an insurance payout? Absolutely not.

Assuming your insurance will cover everything simply because you pay your premiums is a gamble worth questioning.

At Home Watch Academy, we believe homeowners deserve to understand the value of professional Home Watch services BEFORE something goes wrong.

Here’s our question: Do you actually know what your homeowners insurance policy says about leaving your home unoccupied?

🍂 A real taste of fall

Millions will see morning temperatures tumble into the 30s and 40s this weekend.

Fall is making its presence known, and temperatures are dropping across parts of the country!

For most people, it means pulling out sweaters, turning on the heat, and enjoying that first crisp morning with a cup of coffee. ☕

But for millions of seasonal homeowners, especially those who have already headed south, changing temperatures bring an entirely different set of concerns.

🏠 Is the heating system operating properly?

🌡️ Is the thermostat set appropriately for cooler temperatures?

💧 Are there plumbing or moisture concerns that have gone unnoticed?

🍁 Are fallen leaves affecting gutters or drainage areas?

🚪 When was the last time someone actually visited the home?

Here’s something worth remembering: The weather doesn’t wait for homeowners to return.

And a home that looks perfectly fine from the outside may tell a very different story on the inside.

This is where professional Home Watch services make a difference.

A trained Certified Home Watch Reporter conducts scheduled visits, observes changing conditions, documents findings, and reports concerns promptly.

At Home Watch Academy, we believe professional training matters because knowing what to look for as seasons change is an important part of providing quality Home Watch services.

🍂 The seasons are changing. Who’s keeping an eye on your home while you’re away?

Long before “Life is Good” became a recognizable brand, those words were already part of my signature.

When I was a little girl, I wrote letters to my grandmother. I signed every one:

Life is good,
Diane

In 1994, brothers Bert Jacobs and John Jacobs founded Life is Good with only $78 left in their pockets. They sold T-shirts from an old van on the streets of Boston and at college dorms.

From those humble beginnings, they built an extraordinary company rooted in optimism. Today, Bert serves as Chief Executive Optimist, while John serves as Chief Creative Optimist.

Their entrepreneurial story is fabulous—not only because of what they built, but because of the good they continue to do.

There is a powerful lesson in their message:

Do what you love. Like what you do.

Build something you believe in. Use it to make a difference. And love the work you have chosen.

I know I do.

Life is good. 💙⌚🏡
