First visits start once a local walker is assigned. We aim to complete the first walk within 14 days of a qualified enquiry in Winter Garden, Horizon West, Stoneybrook West, Clermont, Kissimmee, Celebration or Davenport. No monthly fee before that walk.
Video home watch · Clermont to Celebration

Video home watch for empty Florida houses.

We walk the house on a schedule you choose. You get one unedited video from the driveway back to the driveway — HVAC, humidity, plumbing traps, doors, pool level and screens. Standard plan $219 a month. First paid visits once a local walker is assigned. Not a rental manager.

The product

One unedited film. Same-day email.

One visit = one person, one loop, one unedited driveway-to-driveway film. You get the link by email the same day, plus a short note. That is the product on day one — not a live stream and not a email inbox login.

  • Walker arrives and films from the driveway in
  • HVAC, humidity, traps, doors, pool level and screens
  • Unedited file emailed the same day with short notes

A portal may come after visits are running. We will not tell you video keeps a policy valid. Home watch is not property management.

Why home watch

Florida is beautiful. Empty houses are not.

When a second home sits empty, humidity, undetected leaks, pests, and a pool that no one is watching can do real damage in a few weeks. Standard property managers care when there is a tenant paying rent. Cleaning crews care between guests. We care when the house is meant to sit quiet — which is the whole point of a snowbird or vacation home.

SafeNest Florida is home watch only. We are not a property manager, we do not let the house, and we do not perform repairs. That is how we stay unbiased: we will never invent a job so we can bill it.

The walk

What we actually check

A physical list, filmed driveway to driveway, then emailed. Not a clipboard that says “fine.”

  1. 01

    Damage

    Walls, fixtures, exteriors — storm, seepage, or something that was not there last visit.

  2. 02

    HVAC & humidity

    Thermostat, air handler, indoor humidity. Florida mold does not wait for you to fly down.

  3. 03

    Plumbing traps

    Toilets flushed, showers and sinks run so traps stay wet and bugs and sewer gas stay out.

  4. 04

    Water leaks

    Under sinks, water heater, ceilings, baseboards. Roof and pipe leaks hide until they smell.

  5. 05

    Appliances

    Fridge and freezer still cold after the afternoon thunderstorms that knock power out.

  6. 06

    Outside

    Forced entry signs, lanai screen cage, pool water level, obvious roof and gutter issues.

  7. 07

    The report

    Short notes plus the unedited driveway-to-driveway film emailed the same day.

Process

How it works

Enquire, talk keys, book after a walker is assigned, film the house, email the file. Month to month. No annual lock.

  1. 01

    Enquire

    Send city/ZIP, empty dates, and the plan you have in mind. No gate code on the first submit.

  2. 02

    Call Pete or Victoria

    A short call about keys, gate, thermostat, and alarm. We do not invent a statewide vacancy law.

  3. 03

    First visit booked

    First visit is booked after a local walker is assigned. We aim for within 14 days of a qualified enquiry in the listed towns.

  4. 04

    Walker films the house

    One person, one loop: driveway → house → driveway. Unedited film. Typical west Orange visit: 25–40 minutes.

  5. 05

    Same-day email

    You get the unedited file by email the same day, plus a short note. Share it with a spouse or co-owner.

  6. 06

    Repeat on your plan

    Watch, Standard, or Weekly. Storms and alarms are extras — not bundled into the monthly rate.

Service area

Areas we will actually drive

Lake, Orange, Osceola, and Polk. We skip the Space Coast. We will not sell a pin we cannot actually reach in a storm.

View all areas

Fix-It Network

We find the problems. A vetted network fixes them.

If the video shows a leak or a dead AC, you are not stranded. Clients get our private, zero-kickback list of local trades. You pay them directly. We do not take a referral fee.

Zero kickbacks

Property managers often dispatch a “preferred” trade and add a markup. They profit when the house breaks. Our loyalty is to the owner. We do not perform repairs. The network exists so you are not googling a plumber from a hotel Wi-Fi at midnight.

Advice Hub

Practical notes, not folklore

Vacancy clauses, humidity, dry traps, pools, and cameras vs a walk. Not legal or insurance advice.

FAQ

Questions owners actually ask

When do visits start?

Once a local walker is assigned. We aim for 14 days after a qualified enquiry in the listed towns. No monthly fee before the first completed walk.

What is home watch?

A scheduled inside-and-outside check of a house meant to sit empty, filmed driveway to driveway. Not property management, lettings, cleaning or repairs.

What does Standard $219 include?

Two video visits per month, HVAC and humidity, traps, doors, pool level and screens, same-day recording by email.

Do you cover Horizon West and Winter Garden?

Yes. Core loop is Winter Garden, Horizon West, Stoneybrook West. Clermont, Kissimmee, Celebration, Davenport yes. Not the Space Coast.

Does the video keep my insurance valid?

We will not say that. Only your carrier can say what they accept. Florida has no statewide 14-day vacancy law.

Is there a live portal?

Not on day one. You get the unedited file by email the same day. A portal comes after visits are running.
