Second home property management

Property care for homes that aren’t occupied every day.

Second home management at City Root is residential oversight. It keeps a line of care running when the owner is at their other home, abroad, or simply not due back for a while.

PROPERTY CHECK OBSERVE CARE COORDINATE REPORT READY
The cycle returns to the next check. Frequency is agreed per property.

Agreed visit schedule How often someone attends is set with the owner. This site does not publish a standard frequency or a package price.
General property oversight A continuing look at the home while it is not in everyday use.
Visible condition Interior and exterior observations within the rooms and areas that have been included.
Maintenance requirements Items that need a decision are reported, then coordinated if the owner agrees.
Contractor access Authorised access so work can happen without the owner making a special journey.
Seasonal care The routine can shift with weather, heating, garden and arrival patterns.
Pre-arrival preparation A check and a status note before the owner returns.
Departure checks A closing look after the owner leaves, within the agreed scope.
Owner reporting A written picture of what was seen, not a guess about what might be hidden.
