We present the results of our search for nearby planetary companions of transiting hot Jupiters in 12 planetary systems: HAT-P-24, HAT-P-39, HAT-P-42, HAT-P-50, KELT-2, KELT-15, KELT-17, WASP-23, WASP-63, WASP-76, WASP-79, and WASP-161. Our analysis was based on multi-sector time-series photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and precise transit timing data sets. We detected no additional transiting planets down to the 2-4 Earth radii regime. For ten hot Jupiters, no departure from linear transit ephemerides was observed. Whilst we refute long-term variations of the orbital period for WASP-161 b, which were claimed in the literature, we notice a tentative hint of the orbital period shortening for WASP-79 b. In addition, we spot a short-period transit timing variation for KELT-2A b with the characteristics typical of the so-called exomoon corridor. We conclude, however, that further observations are required to confirm these findings.
