True story: About a month ago I got a call that a neighbor of a seasonal resident heard that the maid found a leak under the kitchen sink and put a pail under it and can I (I do some handyman work) check it out sometime, if I have time. Another neighbor looked but couldn't find a leak.
What do I find that night?, a overflowing pail in the bathroom with standing water approaching the master. For want of checking the entire home disaster almost got them.
The double neighbor system, actually three people, failed what a monitor would shut down automatically.

Seasonal resident, simple, turn the main off.
