About Selz Property Care
Professional experience that matters on the ground.
I’m Curtis Selz, a local dad and the founder of Selz Property Care. My background includes HVAC project coordination, mechanical service operations, vendor management and customer service leadership.
That experience taught me how to document details, communicate directly and keep people informed when something needs attention. I built this service for property owners who want a responsible local contact. You will not get a call center or a rotating list of unfamiliar people.

Straight answers
Common questions
Clear boundaries are part of providing a professional service.
View all frequently asked questionsIs a home watch visit the same as a home inspection?+
No. A home watch visit is a scheduled, noninvasive visual check of agreed areas with photo documentation. It is not a real estate inspection, code evaluation, diagnosis or professional opinion about a building system.
Can you verify that the HVAC system is working?+
I can record temperature and humidity and confirm whether the system appears to respond to normal thermostat controls. That does not replace diagnosis, maintenance or inspection by a qualified HVAC professional.
Do you manage vacation rentals or guests?+
The core service is scheduled property checks during unoccupied periods. Guest communication, booking management, cleaning and turnover services are not included unless separately agreed and legally permitted.
What happens if you notice a concern?+
I document what I observed and notify you promptly. You decide what happens next. When arranged, I can provide access to a qualified service professional you select.
How often can a property be checked?+
Visit frequency is customized around the property, the expected vacancy period and your priorities. Availability and the final schedule are confirmed during the initial conversation.
