FAQ

Common Questions About Scottsdale Home Watch

Why should I hire AG Homes instead of family, friends or neighbors?

Reliability, Accountability, Privacy & Professionalism. AG Homes will inspect your property. We have a staff so there are no vacation issues, too busy or “I meant to”… issues. We do what we say and provide reliable feedback about your property. Our online access provides you 24/7 information about your property. Lastly, asking your neighbors, friends and family to watch your house may very likely be a burden on them – whether they admit it or not. Over time, this may affect your relationship with them.
