A Lifetime of Experience in Home and Community Protection
Brian Tholen, the founder of Blue Line Home Watch, is no stranger to safeguarding homes and communities. Coming from a family that owned a plumbing business, he was introduced to property maintenance at a young age. His father provided hands-on training, allowing Brian to gain firsthand experience in home care and upkeep as a teenager.
Brian's professional journey led him to a distinguished 29-year career in law enforcement, culminating in his role as Police Chief for the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department. A graduate of the University of St. Thomas and the 275th F.B.I. National Academy, Brian began his policing career in Edina before serving and protecting the Lake Minnetonka area. In addition to his law enforcement background, he has managed rental properties in Wayzata for over two decades, further strengthening his expertise in home care and maintenance.
Recognizing his passion for property care and security, Brian transitioned seamlessly into the Home Watch industry. His years of experience patrolling neighborhoods, investigating security concerns, and maintaining his own properties provide a unique foundation for ensuring his clients’ homes are protected and well-maintained while they are away.
