I help housing associations and property owners manage their empty properties easily and cost effectively, whilst providing a chance to make a meaningful contribution to communities.Dot Dot Dot offers reliable, flexible, cost-effective security plus a cost-free opportunity to contribute to the community. We do this by placing carefully vetted guardians who are dedicated to voluntary work in properties that would otherwise be empty.Our property guardians live in and look after the buildings where they’re placed – and move out at short notice when owners require vacant possession.We manage our guardians’ presence to ensure security, to allow access to the property for clients and their contractors, and to guarantee vacant possession at short notice when required.While providing security, we use the vacant properties to generate social value by supporting our guardians to increase the voluntary work they can take on, and by encouraging them to set up or get involved with local initiatives.Inexpensive accommodation as property guardians reduces the financial pressures they face, allowing them to give more time and energy to the valuable projects they are involved with.For more information about how Dot Dot Dot can take care of your property, please get in touch and I'd be happy to talk you through it and answer any questions you might have.
