California Apartment Community Catches Break-In in Progress with Live Surveillance Monitoring

Here’s a perfect example of how live video monitoring can help stop crimes in progress:

At approximately 10:48 pm, Stealth monitoring operators observing a California multifamily residential community caught sight of an individual attempting to access the property before grabbing an implement and ultimately breaking into a locked door. Audible alarms were activated, and local police were quickly dispatched due to the nature of the activity being observed. Officers responded onsite quickly and were able to make contact with the suspect before ultimately taking them into custody without further incident. 

Safeguarding Your Sanctuary: Why Proactive Security Matters 

Apartment and other types of multifamily residential living is ultimately all about peace of mind. Yet, unchecked break-ins can shatter that sense of security, impacting both residents and the community as a whole. 

When break-ins occur, residents feel unsafe in their own homes. This constant worry takes a toll on their well-being. Fear can lead to residents taking matters into their own hands with expensive personal security measures, or worse, seeking a new home altogether. 

Unchecked break-ins are more than just a resident concern – they can impact the entire community. News of crime can deter potential tenants, leading to vacancies and decreased rental income. Additionally, existing residents may request rent reductions due to perceived safety risks. Negative online reviews may further complicate attracting new tenants. 

Residents trust their landlords to provide a safe and secure living environment. When break-ins happen, that trust erodes, leading to frustration, complaints, and even legal action. This negativity further tarnishes the community’s image. 

The financial impact goes beyond stolen belongings. Communities often need to invest heavily in improved security measures like lighting upgrades, security cameras, and access control systems. Investing in proactive security upfront can be significantly less expensive than dealing with the aftermath of break-ins and a declining community.
