PARADISE VALLEY, AZ -- (Marketwire) -- 08/16/10 -- Imagine moving into your gorgeous new home: It's spacious, nestled into an exclusive gated community and has every amenity you've dreamed of. But as you begin to unpack, you notice a cracked tile in the bathroom. And you need to hire someone to care for your pool. And there are some tree branches awfully close to your roof. And looking up at the vaulted ceilings, you wonder when -- and how -- the last owner changed the smoke detector batteries.

Luxury homeowners have a lot to manage between their home and the grounds upon which it sits -- but who has the time or energy to spend micromanaging plumbers, painters, landscapers, housekeepers and subcontractors?

"That's where we come in," says Jim Audiss, owner of Scottsdale, Ariz.-based Luxury Property Services, a division of Eagle Luxury Properties. "We are a licensed and insured general contractor who provides a single-source solution for the care of your home. We offer a full-service team of professionals with diversified skills to meet your every need, while saving you time and money by protecting your investment."

Luxury Property Services offers three service packages. The Silver Service offers a monthly 10-point inspection of the property to ensure all components of the home -- from electrical and HVAC to plumbing and security -- are working properly. The Gold Service offers the same 10-point inspection on a biweekly basis. The Private Client Services package offers weekly total house management tailored to each individual homeowner -- a team of professional trades people manage all of the aspects of the property while simplifying payment into one monthly bill.

"A home is just like your car, it has a maintenance schedule to ensure everything works properly," explains Audiss. "For instance, did you know your hot water heater should be drained annually? These are things you don't have to worry about when you use our services."

And for those who own vacation homes to escape the Arizona summers, Luxury Property Services can serve as that watchful eye when you leave town for any length of time. "We can take care of everything from managing the landscapers and maintaining the property to securing the home and checking for leaks," says Audiss. "We realize our clients' time and money are both valuable commodities, so we never charge more than we're saving our clients. We're simply providing a solution that doesn't otherwise exist in the marketplace."
