Realtor & Vacant Checks

Freshwater Property Watch provides reliable vacant property checks for Realtors, brokers, investors, and property professionals—helping protect listings, avoid surprises, and keep transactions moving smoothly.

What Vacant Checks Include
Interior Walkthrough

  • Verify doors, windows, and garage are secure

  • Check for leaks, water intrusion, or moisture

  • Confirm HVAC and utilities are operating (visual check)

  • Observe ceilings, walls, and floors for visible issues

  • Look for signs of unauthorized access

Exterior Walkthrough

  • Walk the property perimeter

  • Check exterior doors, windows, and access points

  • Look for storm or weather-related damage

  • Monitor for vandalism, trespassing, or disturbances

  • Check general curb appeal and safety hazards

Why Realtors Use Vacant Home Checks
Ideal Use Cases

  • Catch issues before showings or inspections

  • Protect vacant listings between visits

  • Provide documentation for sellers and buyers

  • Reduce liability during extended listing periods

  • Support long or delayed closings

  • Vacant listings

  • Pending or delayed closings

  • Investor-owned properties

  • Between tenants

  • Seasonal or second homes listed for sale

Reporting & Documentation

  • Date- and time-stamped visit log

  • Photo documentation

  • Clear written summary

  • Immediate notification if an issue is identified

  • Reports can be shared directly with agents, sellers, or property managers.

Optional Realtor Add-On Services

  • After-hours or pre-showing checks

  • Post-storm inspections

  • Vendor access and coordination

  • Light interior cleaning or refresh

  • Garage, outbuilding, or vehicle checks

What This Service Is Not

  • Not a home inspection

  • Not a repair or maintenance service

  • Not a property management substitute

  • Vacant home checks are observational only and intended to support—not replace—professional inspections.

How Realtor Services Are Structured

Realtor services are offered as short-term or as-needed visits, not long-term home watch contracts. Frequency and scope are tailored per property.
