Residential Property Care

Someone checking on your home when you can't

For second homes, seasonal cabins, short-term rentals and owners who simply travel, Saw & Cedar provides scheduled property care: a real set of eyes on the property, documented with photos, followed by a plain-language report you can act on.

This is property care and maintenance — not property management. We do not manage tenants, collect rent, hold owner funds, or act as your agent.

What we do

  • Scheduled interior and exterior condition inspections with photo documentation
  • Routine maintenance: detectors, filters, doors, windows, visible plumbing
  • Minor carpentry and repairs completed on the visit, within limits you set in advance
  • Seasonal opening and closing of second and seasonal homes
  • Storm and severe-weather checks with damage documentation
  • Meeting and admitting contractors you have authorized

What we don't do

  • Tenant placement, screening, leasing or rent collection
  • Holding or disbursing owner funds
  • Acting as your legal agent or representative
  • Electrical, plumbing, HVAC or other licensed-trade work beyond what our license allows — we document it and coordinate a licensed provider
  • Any additional work beyond the plan without your prior approval

Submitting a plan request is a request for a written proposal. It is not an agreement, and it does not authorize any work. Nothing is scheduled or performed until you review and sign a written agreement.

If you set a pre-approved spending limit, it applies only to small items found during a scheduled visit. It is never blanket authorization: anything outside it is documented and quoted first.
