Heading South for Winter? Don't Leave Your Northern Home Unprotected

As the leaves begin to change and that first crisp morning reminds you why you love your winter sanctuary down south, it's time to start thinking about your annual migration. For snowbirds across the northern states, late summer marks the beginning of preparation season – that crucial time when you start planning your escape from the coming snow and ice.

But while you're busy booking flights, checking your southern home, and planning your route, there's one critical detail that deserves your attention: protecting the home you're leaving behind.

The Reality of Unoccupied Homes in Winter

Your northern home faces unique challenges during those months when you're soaking up the Florida sun or enjoying the Arizona desert. Winter weather can be unforgiving, and problems that might be minor inconveniences when you're home can become major disasters when left unattended.

Burst pipes from freezing temperatures can flood entire floors. Power outages can lead to heating system failures. Heavy snow loads can damage roofs. Break-ins are more likely when homes appear obviously vacant for extended periods.
