Anchor & Key

Anchor & Key is private home and boat watch for absentee second-home owners on Florida's east-central coast — Ormond Beach to Edgewater, Daytona Beach, New Smyrna Beach and every town between. One caretaker makes scheduled visits to your vacant condo or in-water boat, follows a written checklist, logs temperature and humidity, checks for leaks and storm damage, and sends a timestamped photo report after every visit — so the answer to "how's the place?" is a scroll away, not a phone call. Every concern is tracked until it's resolved, and one number handles vendors, storms and contractor access. A National Home Watch Association member, run by an active Florida real estate agent, capped at 40 homes so the same person watches every property.
