All apartment complexes have the same mission for their tenants, exceptional customer service, convenient resident programs, dedication to the community, and a worry-free living experience that is safe and secure.
What is today’s biggest issues in apartment security?
According to researcher and property owners, theft, vandalism, unwanted access and illegal dumping are the main reasons that justify security concerns. Property owners are required to develop a unique mindset that allows them to determine the right mix of deterrents, since no two buildings have identical problems.
Another important issue that must be taken into consideration is the high cost of on-site security guards. Security guards can’t be everywhere at once and in some cases, are a part of the problem. Given the nature of their jobs, guards are also put in potentially risky situations, leaving property owners responsible and liable for their well-being, this is costly and stressful.
System integration is also an important topic to considered. No property owner wants to invest in a security system only to discover that it can’t be interfaced with new technological advances even before the setup has been properly amortized.
What’s cost got to do with it?
Because security systems are viewed by owners, managers and tenants as “amenities”, using them as a selling point has not been lost on the public. In fact, consumers contacted by Wakefield Research at the behest of Comcast in 2017 were extremely vocal about opinions they expressed about video surveillance popularity. From the disappearance of delivered packages on doorsteps to the theft of items left outside an apartment or condo door, consumers crave reassurances that only video surveillance, properly positioned, can provide.
Liability issues are increasing exponentially, and nobody wants to be held responsible for injuries resulting from unmaintained conditions, but that’s exactly what can happen if a building’s security system isn’t functioning properly. Tenants who admit visitors who later commit crimes may still be subject to building management blow-back, but the right security system and properly placed cameras can mean the difference between a jury verdict favoring management and one that finds for a tenant.
Fortunately, there’s a more comprehensive and cost-efficient solution – remote live video monitoring from NVMC Solutions.
