Elevation Security: HOA Protection


October 28, 2021

A Homeowners Association provides many different benefits for a variety of entities associated with its implementation. The residents, property owners, community, and surrounding areas can all benefit from the utilization of an HOA and its governance over an area. The rise of HOAs in America began on the west coast and quickly spread across the country as those who were developing land sought to not only maintain its value but increase worth over time with properly maintained residences and accompanying covenants to protect their investments. The HOA also has an obligation of service to those who reside within its boundaries.

Residents can often identify the multiple benefits of living in an HOA but this is also a reciprocal relationship. The HOA has a responsibility to the citizens under its covenant and this includes the ability to keep them protected. For some, this may include limiting access via a gate or it may include the services of a full-time security detail to patrol property or operate a guardhouse at the entrance. While there are positives to both, extending this service beyond simply a manual barrier comes with many other essential functions.

Access

A key card entry system can indeed help to protect a gated community but this also does not prevent unwanted access from individuals who should not be on site. Anyone with a passcode or card would be able to enter the community. However, when a hired security service is used to control access, then the HOA can guarantee privacy along with the ability to keep any individuals who should not be on property outside the area.

Enforcement

Having a highly trained and professional security detail on-premises can also help to implement any rules or access to restricted areas. One of the most common amenities associated with an HOA is typically a clubhouse with either a gym and/or a swimming pool. Having security available to monitor these areas of general access can be essential to helping community members feel at ease when putting them to use. Another potential issue security can help to alleviate is parking or traffic flow problems within the HOA. Continuous monitoring can keep individuals from leaving their automobiles either parked or unattended in problematic areas.

Response

In the event there is an emergency within the HOA, on-site security can greatly reduce response times by trained personnel. From traffic accidents to fire and everything in between, knowing a security presence is available within your HOA either 24/7 or during other hours can help patrons feel at ease about their homeownership while getting to see and experience their dues at work.

Protection

All of these different benefits of having a professional security team add up to one thing - protection. Caring about the quality of life for HOA members while allowing peace of mind in the community can all help boost the status of your area while also potentially increasing property values.
