For condos and second homes

Mammoth Lakes Home Watch & Property Care.

When you are away, get a local set of eyes on your condo or second home. Eric Matson makes scheduled visual checks and sends dated photos with a clear summary of what he observed.

How it works

Know what was visible at home.

Each home is different. At an initial walkthrough, we agree on access, areas to observe, reporting preferences, and whom to contact if an obvious concern is found.

Scheduled home checks

Two visits each month, with a dated photo report after each visit.

  • Look for visible water concerns and appliance alerts
  • Note unusual indoor temperature readings where available
  • Check accessible doors, windows, and obvious exterior concerns
  • Tell you promptly when something visible needs your attention
$175 per month
Introductory price for two scheduled visits to an eligible Mammoth Lakes home. Scope and access are confirmed before service begins. Extra visits are quoted separately.

New owner orientation

A practical introduction to the condo or home you have just purchased.

  • Locate shutoffs and important equipment together
  • Review routine upkeep and seasonal considerations
  • Discuss HOA processes that affect planned changes
  • Leave with a list of questions for the right professionals

Quoted individually based on the home and the time you need.

From setup to report

A straightforward way to stay informed.

1. Agree on the scope

We discuss access, which areas can be observed, your HOA's rules, and the contact you want Eric to use if he sees a concern.

2. Schedule the visits

Eric makes two visual visits each month to the accessible areas agreed on for your Mammoth Lakes home or condo.

3. Receive a photo report

After each visit, you receive dated photos and a concise summary of visible conditions. If something appears to need attention, Eric contacts you promptly.

Home Watch consists of scheduled visual checks of accessible areas. It is not a technical home inspection, security patrol, emergency monitoring service, repair service, or rental management. You make decisions about any work and hire licensed professionals directly. A visit cannot discover every issue or detect a problem that arises between checks.

Eric brings years of homebuilding experience and familiarity with condo and HOA concerns. His construction consulting practice is separate from any contractor you choose to perform work.

Common questions

Before you arrange a check.

What does property care include?

Here, property care means scheduled visual home checks, dated photo reports, and practical new owner orientation walkthroughs. We agree on access and the areas to observe before visits begin. Repairs and maintenance are arranged by you with the appropriate professionals.

What happens if you notice a possible problem?

Eric documents what is visible and contacts you using the plan agreed on at setup. You decide what happens next and hire any needed licensed professional directly. This service does not provide emergency response.

Can you check a condo with HOA access rules?

Yes, if you can authorize access and the agreed visit complies with the association's rules. The initial walkthrough establishes which areas Eric can actually reach and observe.

Is this the same as a home inspection or property management?

No. It is a scheduled visual check and photo report for an owner who is away. It does not include technical inspections, guest or rental coordination, maintenance work, or continuous monitoring.
