The senior population is growing fast – today one out of six Americans is over 65. That’s 52 million seniors! Many of these seniors can afford (and want) second homes, so the number of second homes has grown dramatically in the last 2 decades. In addition to prosperous seniors, the number of highly paid professionals has also grown in recent years, and a second home is high on their wish list as well.As the number of second homes has grown, so has the need for someone to look after both the primary and second home while the owners are away. And because home prices have increased so much, they are a major investment that requires paid professional care to prevent and control damage and risks from everything from natural disasters to a leaky faucet.Today, almost all home insurance companies require regular home checks by a pro if a home is to be unoccupied for extended periods of time. According to industry insiders, home watch services have now become a multi-billion dollar industry, with steady growth and great prospects for the future, as it’s an essential, recession-proof service that’s needed every year regardless of whether the economy is booming or not.This growing demand has created a golden opportunity for those who can provide security and peace of mind for homeowners who are away from their homes.It’s important to note that home watch services are needed in all communities, not just in vacation or sunbelt areas. For example, when a “snowbird” homeowner leaves their primary residence in the fall to spend a few months in the sunbelt, a skilled home watch pro is needed to look after their home during the winter months to prevent problems, just after another home watch pro looks after the sunbelt home during the summer months when the owner has returned to their northern home.A home watch business can keep you as busy as you wish, whether you live in a small community or a large city. It requires no formal education or expensive training, just common sense, a can-do attitude, organizational skills and honesty. Plus, a home watch business can be started with very little money – as little as a few hundred dollars. If you have a car and a cellphone, you’re almost there.A home watch business offers you:• Flexible hours.• Be your own boss.• A recession proof business. • Start on a shoestring.In this book, you’ll discover:• How to get started with just a few hundred dollars. • How to price your services.• How to get a steady stream of new customers.• How to boost your profits with “add-on” services. • How to get free advertising.• The tax deduction that can pay for your new vehicle
