Property Preservation

Vacant and default properties secured, maintained, and documented to the standard your file has to meet.

A boarded and secured vacant property with a fresh lockbox on the front door

Preservation keeps a vacant asset from losing value and from drawing a violation. It begins with securing the property: lock change, boarding where it is needed, and a check that the building is watertight. It continues with winterization, debris removal, and a grounds cutting cycle that runs for as long as the property is held.

What the service includes

  • Initial secure, lock change, and lockbox install
  • Boarding of windows and doors
  • Winterization and de-winterization
  • Debris removal and personal property handling
  • Grounds cutting on the required cycle
  • Roof tarping and emergency leak response
  • Photo documentation to the client checklist

How it is documented

Every order is completed and photographed against the requirements the client works to, whether that is an investor guideline, a servicer checklist, or a local code notice. Photos are dated and labeled by the task they evidence, so an allowable can be billed and a reimbursement supported without sending a crew back for a second set of pictures.

Questions we get about this service

Do you work to servicer and investor guidelines?

Yes. Orders are completed and photographed against the checklist your file has to satisfy, with photos labeled by the task they evidence, so an allowable can be billed and a reimbursement supported.

What happens on the first visit to a vacant property?

Secure first: lock change, boarding where it is needed, and a check that the building is watertight. Winterization, debris removal, and the grounds cycle follow on the schedule the property is held under.

Need field support, or ready to introduce your service company?

One team covers both sides of the work: the client who needs a property held in condition, and the vendor who does the work on the ground.
