About Oro Valley Home Watchers

Oro Valley Home Watchers was established in 2016 by Dave and Michelle Arellano because of their personal experiences while shopping for a home in Oro Valley. They observed that many of the high end, unoccupied homes that had been on the market for some time had some serious problems that were not being adequately addressed, which affected the marketability of those homes. They also experienced firsthand of what it felt like owning a home in Tucson, but being in another state for the first three months, worrying if the plants had all died or worse, someone broke into the house.

In their investigation, they found there were home watch companies out there, but many were not licensed, insured or bonded and that many of those companies were not even using written inspections. So, they determined there was a need for a high level, professional company and established Oro Valley Home Watchers, partnering with Realtors and other professionals to give their clients an uncompromising focus on professionalism, highly comprehensive inspections, and personalized, responsive service.

Oro Valley Home Watchers is accredited by the National Home Watch Association, which sets the highest standards for its members. They have adopted their Code of Ethics and use the Best Practices that were developed by its members from across the country. They are fully insured, bonded and licensed for your protection and peace of mind.

Oro Valley Home Watchers is also accredited by the Better Business Bureau and has earned an A+ Rating. Click the link and see what our clients have to say about us.
