your home watch provider
In the late 80’s, this otherwise unknown industry consisted of three niche and part-time family owned businesses. Today, watch service has exploded with dozens of entities and individuals operating with scales ranging from a side hustle to established and relative organizations. So, who’s the best?
“...the best, no question! We have been customers for nearly 15 years now, and we can honestly say he has been fabulous to work with. Highly recommended.”
“Jon, and Nauset Management, is the best, no question! He is always on top of his game, keeps us well informed, is knowledgeable, courteous, and efficient. We have been customers for nearly 15 years now, and we can honestly say he has been fabulous to work with. Highly Recommended.”

Today’s watch market is driven by a handful of companies properly licensed, bonded and insured alongside a saturating number of start-ups where watch is a supporting service or a seasonal second source of revenue where little if any experience relative to how a home functions is offered.
Association and by extension an inherent pre-existing trust is often the first step when homing in on an individual or entity charged with ensuring your home is in sound working order and while trust is no doubt a box to be checked, it is also an attributed to be earned and nurtured rather than assumed whereas relative experience is vital. Anyone with a key and consent can convey bad news. Leveraging decades of commercial and residential construction experience lends itself to a proactive approach where that background affords the ability to identify and mitigate small cues before those innocuous tells evolve into entirely avoidable and larger issues.
“Jon has all the talents necessary to spot troubles before they become catastrophes, to make recommendations as needed... all while keeping his good humor.”
“We began our Eastham second home ownership with a Fingers Crossed method of management, coupled with relying on the good graces of daughters in the Boston area. When that became a problem, we turned to the Yellow Pages (a pre-Google information service) and found a large local company. The fellow assigned to us was a gem, so we overlooked the failures to communicate, high rates, and added fees of the firm. When our guy was replaced, it was over, and we were fortunate to find Jon and Nauset Management. Jon has all the talents necessary to spot troubles before they become catastrophes, to make recommendations as needed, has his own personal Yellow Pages of reliable vendors and contractors, and a willingness to go above and beyond, all while keeping his good humor. We only wish we had found him sooner and would happily recommend Nauset Management to anyone.“

Beyond trust and relative experience, communication is of paramount importance in order to foster peace of mind. No news implied as being good news is a nonstarter at Nauset Management. Aside from timely responses, my customers are constantly in the know when adverse weather conditions decide to ratchet up apprehension. Be it a significant storm or the prospect of an undetermined calamity conflated through off Cape outlets, actual conditions on the ground are conveyed in real time throughout a given event.
“...he frequently emails splendidly written commentaries on the weather, homeowners’ needs, and a variety of highly useful topics. He’s one of a kind. He’s always willing to go the extra mile. We recommend him most highly!”

Trust through diligence, leveraging relative experience in a proactive approach, providing the resources necessary to address findings and clear communication always front of mind maintains Nauset Management’s position as a leader in the Cape Cod watch market.
“...hands-on, accessible, dependable...on down the line. He has proven to be worth every penny of what we pay him.”
“Besides his creative writing skills, Jon is hands-on, accessible, dependable…on down the line. After many years of trusting to luck when not at our Cape home, we trusted Jon. He has proven to be worth every penny of what we pay him. If and when we decide to sell our home, we would also use his services. You cannot do better than Nauset Management. Highly recommend.“
