Owning a Vineyard Home From Afar Shouldn't Keep You Up at Night
Storm Vulnerability
A nor'easter hits overnight. Without a caretaker, homes average $35,000 more in damage — and you won't know until spring.
Insurance Exposure
Your insurer requires documented monitoring. Without proof, your claim is denied — on a property worth $2.6M.
Contractor Premiums
Island contractors charge a 20–35% premium. Without local advocacy, you pay more and wait longer.
That's precisely what a caretaker does.
We connect you with year-round island residents who become your trusted presence on Martha's Vineyard.
