Absentee Owner Management

Professional Binoculars

With Doubtless Bay being a holiday destination and with residents away travelling, we have developed a Home Care Program for Absentee owners to ensure that property owners have peace of mind no matter where they are.

It does not matter whether you are in the country or overseas we treat your property with the same attention to detail as you would if you were in town. You won't have to trouble your neighbours or friends with favours when we are managing your property. We are in constant communication with our property owners keeping them informed of all happenings at the property both inside and outside of the home.

Communication in the absentee owner situation is truly the lifeline between an owner and their property. Our service provides interior and exterior home inspection and feedback to you with some photos on a weekly/bi-weekly/monthly basis of your preference. Additional services include maintenance, emergency care, supervision for any renovations that might become necessary and anything else needed to properly ensure care of your home.

Our purpose is to ensure the condition and security of your property not only remains the same while you are away also allowing you to return to your property knowing that you can enjoy your stay rather than focus on all the maintenance which can arise while you are away.

We’re here to handle your house watching; to inspect, protect and safeguard your property against damage and maintain your home with the same care and consideration as if it were our own.

Below is a list of some of the services we offer:

Check for broken windows or doors
Check all window and door locks
Check interior and exterior for mould, insects, rodents, etc.
Check for smells and sounds
Check smoke alarms / replace batteries if required
Check lights (if power on)
Ensure lawn service is being performed
Check for storm damage, debris build up
Check for any water damage
Grounds Inspection, building deterioration
Check mailbox is cleared if applicable
Check taps/showers and flush toilets to check for leaks
Run disposal & shower once monthly (if power on)

Check for potential problems

Our Absentee Owner Management Authority sets out our general terms and conditions. A travel charge may apply if your property is out of town (Mangonui to Taipa bridge). We suggest you have a read through this, and then arrange a meeting with us (or phone us if you are out of town) to discuss any queries you may have.

We look forward to hearing from you.
