THE ENGAGEMENT
Our engagements are structured around the residence and household and the level of ongoing management they require. Scope varies based on the property, household requirements, service relationships, staff, projects, assets, and degree of oversight involved.
Engagements begin at $4,500 per month, with final pricing determined by scope.
PRIVATE HOME MANAGEMENT
Private Home Management provides ongoing oversight of the responsibilities involved in operating a private residence and supporting the household around it.
We maintain awareness of what requires attention, coordinate the people and services involved, plan recurring requirements, oversee work, maintain household and property information, and follow matters through to completion.
The work itself may be performed by housekeepers, contractors, technicians, landscapers, mechanics, pet-care providers, household staff, or other specialists. Our responsibility is to ensure those separate functions are properly coordinated and accounted for within the operation of the household.
THE RESIDENCE & HOUSEHOLD
The residence itself requires ongoing care: systems need maintenance, repairs arise, grounds require attention, projects develop, equipment ages, and records accumulate.
The household creates a separate set of requirements. Groceries and household supplies need replenishment. Vehicles require care. Staff and service providers need direction and access. Travel changes what is required at the residence. Pets, guests, deliveries, and recurring household needs require coordination.
Private Home Management brings those responsibilities under one management structure.
Private Home Management may extend across the following areas based on the requirements of the residence and household. We coordinate, arrange, source, supervise, and maintain responsibility for the work; specialized services are performed by the appropriate providers.
Includes coordination of preventive maintenance, inspections, repairs and service for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, appliances, generators, water systems, security and access systems, pools and spas, and other residential systems.
Includes contractor and specialist sourcing, proposals and estimates, scheduling, access, project coordination, progress follow-up, outstanding items, installations, replacements, repairs and property improvements.
Includes coordination of landscaping, irrigation, tree care, pest control, pool and spa service, exterior cleaning, drainage, gates, exterior lighting, outdoor amenities and seasonal property care.
Includes coordination of housekeeping, grocery and household-supply replenishment, household inventory, laundry and garment care, deliveries and returns, meal services, recurring purchases and guest preparation.

Includes coordination of grooming, boarding, sitting, walking, appointments, care-provider access, supply replenishment, travel arrangements and other recurring household needs.

OPERATING CONTINUITY
Many responsibilities within a residence are recurring rather than one-time. Equipment requires service again. Supplies are consumed. Vehicles require maintenance. Seasonal work returns. Service relationships change. Projects create future requirements. Travel alters household routines.
We maintain the schedules, records, open items, service history, and upcoming requirements necessary to preserve continuity over time.
The homeowner remains involved where a decision, preference, or approval is required. The ongoing responsibility for identifying, organizing, coordinating, and following through on the work remains with us.
ENGAGEMENT LENGTH
Private residences operate on an annual cycle, and the household itself changes throughout the year.
To manage the residence through a full operating cycle and develop a complete understanding of the property, its systems, service relationships, household requirements, and recurring responsibilities, our initial engagements are 12 months.
