What is a neighborhood watch?
Neighborhood watch is an exceptional, citizen-led program wherein the members form themselves, working together with local law enforcement to prevent crime. By all means, the National Crime Prevention Council has specified that programs like this are the top means to reduce residential crime rates.
Provided that there’s already a neighborhood watch program in your rental property’s vicinity, we encourage giving a communication encouraging your tenants to join up. Many renters are happy to contribute their time to a community that meets their needs and reflects their values and need a small bit of persuasion. When the inhabitants are involved in having their territory safeguarded, they are more likely to form positive relationships with community members, stay in the home longer, and keep your investment property from being targeted and maligned by neighbors within your area.
A safe, protected rental home and satisfied tenants are both keys to a successful long-term investment strategy. At Real Property Management Preferred, we consistently communicate with the property owners and our local public to manage quality rental properties. Our property management experts understand how imperative it is to promote and sustain good relations with neighbors and community leaders. Contact us or call us at 281-894-9111 for more insights.
