Managing a portfolio of investment properties remotely can be challenging, especially when those properties are vacant and vulnerable to criminal activity.
Sally Stallworth, Owner of Sweet Home Detroit knows that all too well. As a property manager residing in California and managing empty properties in Detroit, she experienced several break-ins, theft, and vandalism with her Detroit assets. Due to time constraints and pandemic-related travel restrictions, she could not travel regularly to her properties to coordinate security.
From her previous trips to the Detroit area, Stallworth had seen many vacant properties secured with DAWGS steel door and window guards. When she inquired with a Detroit contractor about their experience with DAWGS, she was told: “nobody gets past DAWGS security.”
Intrigued, Stallworth contacted DAWGS (Door and Window Guards Systems) about securing her properties. She could remain out of state while the DAWGS team secured her vacant properties.
DAWGS Delivers Peace of Mind
Stallworth’s comment after partnering with DAWGS:
“After experiencing break-ins and appliance theft using plywood board-up, I was ready to try another security solution. After I had DAWGS installed I was literally able to sleep better at night, knowing my properties were safe and secure, DAWGS gave me frequent updates and photos of the entire security process”.
