David's Response:
"I can't believe how close I came to a disaster. If Home Watch Club hadn't caught this during their monthly visit, I would have faced a $5,000+ AC replacement during peak summer season. Their attention to detail and immediate action saved me thousands and kept my tenants happy. This is exactly why I joined their club - they watch my investment like it's their own family's home."
