An empty home can be a disaster waiting to happen! Unexpected problems can and do arise:
- Burglars could break a window, thereby creating an opening vulnerable to rain damage and mold, rodent and insect infestations, or further intruders and vandals.
- A leaking faucet or toilet upstairs could lead to damage of the ceilings, walls, and floors below.
- Severe weather storms could wreak havoc – especially if your belongings have not been adequately secured.
Mitigate these risks, appease your insurance company, and relax in the knowledge that your home is being looked after in your absence.
