Vacant Property facilities and security services
Allied Force Group supports vacant and void property with scheduled inspections, security cover, void compliance tasks and dated condition reporting. The purpose is to find deterioration, unauthorised access or a lapsed statutory obligation during a planned visit rather than at the point of reletting.
An empty building still carries risk and still deteriorates. We hold a schedule of inspections, security arrangements and compliance checks so the asset is protected and ready when it is needed.
Scheduled inspection
Written reports on condition, ingress, damage and unauthorised entry.
Security and access
Keyholding, patrols and access control arrangements set to the risk on the site.
Handback readiness
Clearance, cleaning and records prepared for reletting, sale or reoccupation.
How an empty building is held
A schedule of inspections, security arrangements and compliance checks protects the asset and keeps it ready for its next use.

Inspection on a written schedule
Each visit follows the same checklist: ingress, damage, unauthorised entry, water and drainage, fire precautions and boundary condition, with photographs and a dated report each time.
Security set to the risk
Keyholding, patrol frequency and access arrangements are set against the location, the building's condition and how long it will stay empty, and reviewed as those change.
Ready for handback
Clearance, cleaning, minor repairs and records are prepared ahead of reletting, sale or reoccupation so the building can be handed over without a scramble.
- Dated inspection reports with photographs
- Patrol and alarm response records
- Utility, water and fire precaution checks
- Clearance and remedial works records
Vacant Property facilities questions
What happens during a void inspection?
The building is walked to an agreed route, condition is recorded with photographs, and any deterioration, water ingress, damage or evidence of access is reported with a date so changes can be tracked over time.
Does an empty building still need water compliance?
Yes. Low-use and empty systems remain a Legionella risk, so flushing and temperature monitoring continue under the site's written scheme of control while the building is void.
How is the building kept secure?
Security cover, keyholding and alarm response can be arranged alongside the inspection programme, so an activation receives a planned attendance rather than an ad hoc call.
What happens before reletting?
Clearance, cleaning and presentation work can be programmed ahead of marketing or handover. The scope and delivery arrangements for a specific site are confirmed following a site review.
