Home check
If there were a simple answer to this post, there would have been one answer, and the post would be over. But life isn't that simple. In reality, this post isn't any of my business because I live year-round in my local residence. I do know some house check people, and it seems to me that there is no simple answer, even when you ask "the pros". My guess is that a mixture of methods is the best answer. Nothing beats a real live human taking a walk around (inside and out) a residence while the owner is not present. Sure, electronics can provide a lot of monitoring within and without a home, and there are monitors for virtually everything, but nothing beats the human walk-around. It is not my intention to spend all of somebody's hard-earned money on gadgets and widgets, but I would hate to see somebody trick their house out in the latest and greatest monitors only to return someday to find damage caused by a broken window which let in water during a rainstorm which then froze due to a cold snap in early November. Okay, I get it, there are gadgets for that,too, but a real pair of eyes is so much better.
