The importance of property security
Property security is vital for protecting assets and promoting a sense of safety, stability, and well-being
Unfortunately, burglaries are not uncommon. In the UK, a burglary takes place every 108 seconds, costing on average £3,030. Here at Total Landlord, we find that break-ins spike in the summer and winter months.
Your rental property is more vulnerable to burglars when tenants are on holiday and the property is vacant, or in winter when thieves take advantage of the darker months, particularly in the run up to Christmas when they are on the lookout for presents to steal.
But having a secure property and implementing measures to deter burglars from targeting your rental property is important in all seasons.
In this guide to securing your rental property, we’ll share our tips to help you and your tenants reduce the risks of burglary and break-in.
We’ll explain who is responsible for repairing damage and how landlord insurance can protect you.
