About CCHW
Coastal Carolina Home Watch Announces Ownership Change
Coastal Carolina Home Watch founder Jack Luber of Murrells Inlet has been providing Home Watch and other custom services to seasonal and part-time homeowners on the Grand Strand and Waccamaw Neck since 2005. During that time CCHW has established a reputation for discretion, confidentiality, and services personalized to alleviate the fears of their clients during their absence.
On January 2, 2024, Steven Montesano of Myrtle Beach became, President/Owner of Coastal Carolina Home Watch. Steven hails from Connecticut and brings his vast experience in land development, home construction, and real estate to CCHW.
Steven says: “I could not be more excited and confident about the future of Coastal Carolina Home Watch. Jack’s vision has always been to represent the best interests of our clients. To act as their advocate when they aren’t at the beach, and I have adopted that vision.”
Coastal Carolina Home Watch provides Home Watch inspections, preventative maintenance, Contractor Liaison Services, Concierge, Cleaning Services and Rental Assistance to its clients on the Grand Strand of South Carolina.
Coastal Carolina Home Watch is licensed, bonded, and insured. We carry workers’ compensation insurance, thus ensuring our customers’ protection while inspectors and other workers are at their property. All employees of CCHW must pass background and DMV checks. We take your privacy and trust very seriously. You have our word on that.
