Many tenants travel out of town during December, and leaving a rental home unattended requires preparation. Whether you’re gone for a weekend or a full week, taking precautions helps protect your belongings and supports the long-term well-being of the property.

Before leaving, secure all windows and doors, set your thermostat to maintain a safe temperature, and unplug nonessential electronics. If freezing temperatures are expected, consider leaving cabinet doors open under sinks and allowing faucets to drip to prevent pipe damage. Notify Conquest Property Management if you are aware of any existing issues that should be addressed before your trip.

It can also be helpful to ask a trusted friend or neighbor to keep an eye on your home, bring in packages, or report anything unusual. When you return, inspect the property for any changes or maintenance needs. Acting quickly allows our team to address concerns before they worsen. We want your holidays to be stress-free, and preparedness is the best tool for peace of mind.
