Our ServiceWe provide total vacant property management, we typically act on behalf of receivers, estate agents or probate solicitors in order to ensure that the physical integrity of the asset is maintained. We begin every engagement with a detailed risk management survey before taking appropriate action to prevent harm to your building, this might include:
Using secure by design (SBD) principles we ensure that your property retains defensible spaces, cutting back trees and shrubberies to prevent potential hiding places for would-be intruders, this might also necessitate additional security lighting, remote camera monitoring or installation of portable motion detectors. This list is by no means definitive, we will advise you of what risks we have identified and what options are available to mitigate them but our services are bespoke to your needs, the only area in which you will find us inflexible is in our drive to be competitive in both quality and price. Having secured your asset we will then carryout periodic visits, we suggest that weekly is beneficial to ensure that the measures we have put in place remain in place. Each visit will be recorded and uploaded onto our client portal, you will be able to view your assets and witness every single visit with the click of a mouse. But wait, there‘s more! Here at Portcullis we believe that your vacant asset can be better protected with the assistance of the community in which it is located. You can expect us to make contact with the Neighbourhood Police Officer that has responsibility for the property, we will update the Police and Fire service of the status of the property, where appropriate we will consult with the local neighbourhood, through community meetings, Neighbourhood watch and local media acting as your ambassador on the ground. |
