A surveillance system can dramatically enhance the safety and quality of any property, especially apartment buildings. Not only do tenants want to feel safe, but also property managers can worry less knowing the property is more secured and monitored. Here are some ways to improve your apartment building with video surveillance.

How Video Surveillance Can Help Apartment Buildings

1. Attract Better Renters

Most prospective clients will be on the lookout for a secured apartment building because it makes them feel safer. Knowing there is a surveillance system in place will put their minds at ease, making them more likely to rent from you.

2. Decrease Theft & Vandalism

If it still happens, however, having video evidence will increase the chances of finding the culprits and holding them responsible for their misconducts. 

3. Prevent Non-Residents from Using the Parking Lot

One of the most common complaints property managers hear is the lack of parking spots available. Quite often, this can be the result of non-residents parking there. A video surveillance system can help by catching them in the act. From there, the proper proceeding can take place, whether it be the issuance of a ticket or towing their vehicle, which will deter them from parking there in the future.

4. Reduce Liability 

An apartment building without a surveillance system in place is risking liability. Without security footage, tenants may not feel safe, disputes between tenants in common areas may be harder to settle, and it can be harder for security or property managers to monitor the property. Video surveillance eliminates these issues, resulting in a feeling of safety, physical evidence to back up claims in a dispute, and an easy way to monitor the building.
