How we do home watch in Cory Lake Isles
Cory Lake Isles in New Tampa (Tampa, FL 33647): Gated lake community inside Tampa city limits in New Tampa, laid out on brick streets around Cory Lake and run day to day by the Cory Lakes CDD, with a Beach Club, two pools, a beach with dock and boat ramp, and a Morris Bridge Rd gatehouse. Plenty of Cory Lake Isles households are gone for a week or a month at a time, and a closed house in Florida still needs checking. We live a few streets over in Cross Creek, on the same side of the county line.
A home watch visit is a walk through the house with a checklist and a camera: doors and windows, the A/C running and the thermostat and humidity reading, the drain line, no water intrusion and no musty smell, no pests, the water heater and main valve, the electrical panel, faucets run and toilets flushed, the lanai and pool cage, mail and packages. The photo report is in your inbox the same day. We look, we report, and we call you if something is wrong. We are not home inspectors, and we do not guarantee the condition of the home.
Residents use a barcode lane and everyone else uses the visitors' gate; the CDD contracts security patrol services and a virtual guard, and since the amenity policies the board adopted in July 2026 the published gatehouse phone is the Cross Creek gatehouse rather than the Morris Bridge one. Tell the gate to expect us before the first visit; we confirm the arrangement at the free meet and greet. Cory Lake Isles has both a CDD and an HOA, which means two sets of rules and two lines on the tax bill, and we follow both for parking and visitor policies. Single visits are $45/visit. Monthly plans are $150/mo for weekly visits or $85/mo for every other week, and both include the hurricane prep visit and the post-storm check.

Home Watch in Cory Lake Isles: questions we get
Do you offer home watch in Cory Lake Isles?
Yes. Home watch is a scheduled walk-through with a same-day photo report covering doors and windows, A/C, water, lanai and dock, and mail. We live in Cross Creek, so the schedule can flex around your travel dates, and a post-storm check is part of it for monthly clients.
How much does home watch cost in Cory Lake Isles?
$45/visit per visit. Monthly plans are $150/mo for weekly visits or $85/mo for every other week, both with a same-day photo report each time and the hurricane prep visit and post-storm check included.
What do you check on a home watch visit in Cory Lake Isles?
Doors and windows, A/C and thermostat, drain line, water intrusion and odors, pests, water heater and main, electrical panel, faucets and toilets, lanai and pool cage, mail and packages, with photos of each. It is a visual walk-through and report, not an inspection.
What happens if you find something wrong?
We photograph it, we call you the same day, and if you want us to meet a contractor or the A/C company we do that as an errand visit. We do not make repairs and we do not decide anything about your house without you.
Do you check Cory Lake Isles homes after a hurricane?
Yes, when roads are open. The post-storm check is a walkthrough with photos, power and A/C status, a water-intrusion check and a debris report. It is included in monthly plans and available on its own. We do not enter during an evacuation order or the storm itself.
