Commercial property trespassing challenge
The Challenge

Vacant Properties Were Becoming Liability Magnets

Riverside Properties manages 8 commercial properties in various stages of vacancy and development. Chronic trespassing, illegal dumping, and encampments were creating liability risks, cleanup costs, and delaying development projects. Security guards were effective but cost-prohibitive for multiple vacant properties. Local law enforcement was responsive but could not prevent recurring issues without 24/7 presence.

The Solution

Voice-Down Intervention That Prevents Recurrence

SCT+ deployed solar-powered cameras with real-time voice-down capability across all 8 properties. When trespassers are detected, our monitoring team immediately addresses them through high-powered speakers, warning them they are being recorded and that authorities have been notified. This consistent, documented response eliminates the perception that vacant properties are unwatched, preventing the recurrence that plagues traditional security approaches.

Challenge

A property manager was struggling with chronic trespassing, illegal dumping, and encampments across 8 vacant and under-development commercial properties.

Solution

SCT+ deployed solar cameras with real-time voice-down capability, providing immediate intervention that eliminates the perception of unwatched properties.

Result

100% resolution of all active issues within 30 days, with zero recurrence maintained for 6+ months.

We had tried everything - fencing, security patrols, working with local law enforcement. People kept coming back because they knew no one was really watching. SCT+ changed that completely. Now when someone enters our property, they hear a voice telling them to leave immediately. Word got out fast, and the problems stopped.
