If you get a FLUME (about $200 on Amazon) and attach it to the water meter, you can monitor your water usage. It will alert you if it thinks there is a leak or excessive water is being used. If you have separate water and irrigation meters, you could just use it on the irrigation and shut the main house off. That said, the water does evaporate from toilets and traps, so getting them refilled on occasion is something that should also happen.
I have a WiFi garage door opener on both the houses I own, and when I was a sunbird(come down in July, up north in January), I had a maintenance company pick up the cart from the garage. I opened the door, watched him get it and drive away. I then closed the door. Easy peasy.
