  • What are the benefits of using VPSitex’s services?

    Retaining the value of your property

    Our speed in response and expertise in security ensures that the value of your property is protected from the minute it becomes vacant. This allows you to effectively hold on to your property’s value over the long-term. Our world-class bespoke services address ongoing issues quickly, helping you to evade trespassers, reduce crime, and keep your vacant property in working order.

    Controlling your costs

    We protect you from potential costs that could either be resolved or reduced as soon as possible. In this way, we can reduce prohibitive costs otherwise associated with managing the property yourself or leaving it unattended. By investing in the upkeep of a vibrant and well-maintained property, we make sure that you are better prepared for faster re-occupancy, sale or construction at lower cost.

    Reducing your impact on communities

    Through the neglect of a property, communities can be impacted by the cyclical effects this causes. For example, broken windows can often lead to further vandalism and crime.

  • Why should I choose VPSitex over other suppliers?

    At VPSitex, our success depends on your peace of mind. Whether you are around the corner or around the world, you can take comfort in knowing that your vacant property is safe in the hands of experts.

  • What do I need to consider when my property becomes vacant?

    Our customers know that the problem is not solved by simply locking the front door. More often than not, a vacated property is not something you will have planned for. As a result, the situation can feel a bit overwhelming, with concerns around loss of income, security, vandalism, crime, and asset value depreciation.

  • How can VPSitex help me from the moment a property becomes vacant, to when it goes back on the market?

    We understand what is required to care for, protect and restore your vacant property. To clarify this process, we’ve identified the four key elements of a vacant property’s lifecycle.

    Clear: We can change and remove fittings, clear rubbish, rubble and hazardous material, make repairs, conduct Asbestos surveys, and clean up after squatters. We also drain down or close off utilities, and pump out, investigate and make repairs after water ingress.

    Security: For the past decade, we have been protecting the safety of our customers’ vacant properties. Whether you rely on our world-class security guards, dogs, and patrols, or our innovative technology such as shutters, cameras, and alarms – the security measures we offer are world class.

    Maintain: Our expert maintenance services cover major concerns such as flood, fire or structural upkeep, down to the smaller details such as mould, decay and gardening services. We keep a diligent watch on all the issues that may affect your property. Communicating with you every step of the way, we take pride in keeping you fully aware of any ongoing concerns.

    Prepare: Our preparation service is expert and comprehensive. Essentially, we do everything required to make your property ready for a new tenant. This includes changing locks, transferring utility bills, and making security arrangements. If there is construction or development to be done, we’re on hand to clear and prepare the site for you.

  • How can VPSitex benefit the community?

    Taking care of your property doesn’t just benefit you; it benefits those in your community. Through the maintenance of a vibrant and well-kept property, not only can you keep out squatters and trespassers, you can also help to reduce crime. Keeping your building secure also reduces the possibility of public health and safety concerns.
