Caring For Your Home While You Are Away
Travelling, for any reason, should not leave you worried about what is happening back at home.
Acuity Advantage provides scheduled, in-person visits to help ensure changes or concerns at your property do not go unnoticed during your absence.
Whether you are away on business, taking a holiday for a few weeks, spending part of the year elsewhere, or travelling frequently, we provide a consistent point of contact at home and keep you informed about the condition of your property.
Areas We Serve

Why Regular Home Watch Matters
A lot can change at a property when no one is there to see it.
Calgary's changing weather and temperature fluctuations can affect everything from plumbing and mechanical systems to exterior conditions. Water concerns, storm damage, security issues and other unexpected situations can develop regardless of the season. As locals, we also know how quickly a summer hailstorm can move through the city, leaving tens of thousands of dollars of damage behind in a matter of minutes.
Regular visits mean there is someone paying attention.
Our professionals look for visible changes or irregularities, document each visit, and communicate concerns so that appropriate action can be taken when needed.
Regular home checks may also be required under the terms of some insurance policies when a property is vacant or unoccupied. Homeowners should always confirm the requirements of their individual policy before travelling.
Home Watch Designed Around Your Home
No two properties, homeowners or travel schedules are exactly alike. Our clients include snowbirds, frequent travellers, owners of multiple residences, executors and estate representatives, and homeowners whose properties will temporarily be unoccupied.
We begin by understanding your home and what needs to happen while you are away, then establish a schedule and service plan appropriate to your needs.
Each visit follows a structured process for observing and documenting the condition of your property. If something appears out of the ordinary, you are informed and, when appropriate, we can coordinate next steps on your behalf, from providing access to a service professional to coordinating a repair or responding to an unexpected situation.
Professional Standards You Can Rely On
Acuity Advantage is an Accredited Member of the National Home Watch Association, and our team includes Certified Home Watch Professionals.
These are not simply credentials we list. They are part of the professional standard we believe should exist whenever someone is entrusted with access to your home.
Let's Talk About Your Home
Every property requires something a little different.
