Vacant property security has now become a major issue for property owners, landlords and managers. Vacant properties run the risk of gaining the unwanted attention of people who can break into the property, cause damage or loss. To prevent this situation from occurring it is important that all properties within a portfolio are inspected regularly. If you are unable to do this yourself, you should consider employing the services of a specialist vacant property security company. One of the first considerations for landlords and commercial property owners is to decommission any property that becomes vacant. There is a long list of mandatory requirements stipulated by many insurance companies that need to be met in order not to prejudice the cover offered by their policies.
