Vacant Property Inspection Service
An essential service to shield your unoccupied properties from trespassers, city fines, and catastrophic damages.
Exterior & Entry Point Security
We meticulously inspect all windows, doors, gates, and other potential entry points for any signs of tampering or forced entry.
Board-Up & Securing Checks
For boarded properties, we verify the integrity of the board-up, ensuring it remains secure and unbreached since our last visit.
Catch Squatters Early
On non-boarded properties, we conduct careful interior walkthroughs to confirm there are no unauthorized occupants before they can establish rights.
Why Monthly Inspections Are Non-Negotiable
A vacant property isn't just empty—it's a high-risk liability. In Philadelphia, the law is not on your side if you neglect it. Here’s what you're up against:
The Squatter's Rights Clock is Ticking
The longer an unauthorized person occupies your property, the harder and more expensive it is to remove them. They can begin to establish residency, turning a simple trespassing issue into a complex, months-long legal battle. A squatter can cost you tens of thousands in legal fees and lost time.
Our monthly inspections "catch them in time." We provide dated photographic evidence that the property is actively monitored, which is crucial for proving they are trespassers, not tenants with rights.
The High Cost of Inaction
One broken window or kicked-in door can lead to catastrophic damage. A small leak can turn into a full-blown mold infestation costing thousands to remediate. A single squatter can cause irreparable damage to plumbing, wiring, and fixtures.
Proactively boarding up and securing your property isn't an expense; it's the smartest financial decision you can make. It prevents immense future losses and is the first line of defense we check on every visit.

A digital report with time-stamped photographs will be emailed to the Client after each inspection.
- Subscription & Billing: This is a recurring monthly subscription. The Client's payment method will be charged automatically on the same day each month. The subscription will continue until cancelled by the Client as per the cancellation policy.

The Client hereby grants the Company and its authorized representatives a limited right of entry to the specified property for the sole purpose of conducting the scheduled monthly inspection.

No partial refunds or credits will be issued for cancellations made after an inspection has been completed for the current billing period.
