Why second-home owners have us check in

As a family business, we focus solely on properties in the Axarquía area to guarantee consistent attention to detail. We carry out every inspection ourselves—your home is never passed to unfamiliar contractors or rotating agency staff.

Perimeter vigilance & anti-squatting deterrence

Squatters and burglars deliberately target homes left visibly unoccupied. During every visit, we physically verify your boundary gates, fencing, and entrance padlocks to ensure all access points remain secure, latched, and uncompromised.

Letterbox clearance & active deterrence

Opportunistic scouts look for telltale signs of absence, such as accumulated delivery flyers or menus jammed in gates. Regularly clearing your post-box and walking the perimeter keeps your home visibly active, monitored, and off opportunistic radars.

Early weather & storm damage detection

Autumn DANA downpours and mountain gusts can shift roof tiles, tear awnings (toldos), and block terrace drains with calima dust and pine needles. We inspect exterior drainage and closures before standing water causes interior ceiling leaks.

Physical verification when smart cameras fail

Smart alarms and Wi-Fi cameras are useful, but rural power cuts and dropped 4G connections frequently knock them offline. We provide dependable, time-stamped photo confirmation directly from a trusted person on site.

Winter in the UK
Sarah & John
Villa in Nerja (El Capistrano)

"We stay in Manchester from November to March. Having our villa checked every two weeks with WhatsApp photos gives us complete peace of mind. We know terrace drains are clear and post isn't piling up at the gate."

Chosen Plan: Fortnightly Care (€95/month)
Country Home with Storage Tank

"Our country home has a private 10,000-litre water storage tank. We chose the Fortnightly Plan with the Water Tank add-on. They check the water level and pump on every visit, so we never return to a dry tank."
