When a distant property needs a human visit, give the nearby person the context they need while keeping every other home private.

Trusted local helper checking a remote lake home after receiving an alert

Why it matters

Remote property access should not be all or nothing

A friend near the cabin may be the fastest person to check a leak or alarm. Giving them your login exposes unrelated homes, settings, and history and removes accountability.

Invite by home

Choose the cabin, rental, or vacation home where the person can help.

Choose what they can do

Give the person only the level of access needed for the task.

Keep individual accounts

Use named invitations instead of sharing your owner password.

From alert to outcome

Share one CHIRP home with the person who can help

Invite a trusted person to the relevant home. They can see the property information you share without receiving access to every other home in your account.

You explain the problem. CHIRP helps set up the protection.

Describe the property problem in everyday language—even if you have not bought a sensor yet. CHIRP can recommend what to buy, check whether a specific model will work, guide the setup, and prepare the response for your approval.

Home Access Control for Trusted Property Helpers FAQ

Can a helper see my other homes?

Not unless you separately invite them. Each home keeps its own people, devices, dashboards, and history.

Does this page mean CHIRP controls door locks?

No. This page describes account and property access inside CHIRP, not physical smart-lock control.
