Owners and managers of affordable housing communities often face crime incidents that harm the tenants and the property. A proactive, public-private program that reduces risk will improve the residents’ quality of life and can reduce liability exposure and insurance costs.
Too often, property owners and managers react to crime. They call the police, hire a security company or evict troublesome tenants. None of those actions prevent problems from reoccurring, reduce liability or help residents. When violent acts in a community become regular fodder for TV news, the property is perceived as a place where criminals live. Its value, income and insurability are all affected.
