Re: Empty Nest Service - what is it?
Whether you hire someone to visit your house periodically is pretty much up to you. The "Empty Nest Service" is a part of TV Property Management Division. Their inspectors have a prescribed checklist (walk the property, outside inspection, flush the toilets, run the dishwasher, crank up the AC to dry the place out, etc.) and visit every 10 days or so. They then provide you with a written report of their findings monthly. If anything needs to be addressed, they call the appropriate service provider you give them to order service. Or they may contact you directly with a recommendation. (Last year they called me to suggest they hire someone to wash the "love bugs" off my house, they had gotten so bad.)
The Empty Nest service is pricey--I think they're up to about $22.50 a visit. There are dozens of other reliable and experienced people in TV that will perform essentially the same service for less. This year I hired a fellow with 30 years experience as a house inspector for only $10 a visit.
But, like I said, hiring someone to look in on your house is a purely personal decision.
