How It Works

Help Protect Your Vacant Property

A vacant property can become vulnerable to unauthorized entry and fraudulent occupancy. If someone claims a right to live there, resolving the situation may become complicated, time-consuming, and expensive.

Registered Vacant Property helps owners document a property’s vacant status in advance, creating a clearer record if unauthorized occupancy occurs.

The Process

1. Register the Property

Before the current occupants leave—or before a newly built property is occupied—the owner registers the property as vacant.

Registration records key information, including the date the vacancy begins.

2. Document the Vacancy

We help establish and maintain a record showing that the property is vacant and that no one has permission to occupy it unless authorized by the owner.

Where applicable, vacancy information may also be shared with the appropriate local authorities or agencies.

3. Identify the Property

Notices may be posted at the property to identify it as a Registered Vacant Property. These notices can help make the property’s status clear to neighbors, visitors, service providers, and responding authorities.

Additional monitoring measures, such as motion detection, may also be available.

4. Respond to Unauthorized Occupancy

If someone enters or occupies the property without permission, the registration record can help the owner demonstrate that:

• The property was vacant before the unauthorized entry occurred.
• The individual was not an authorized tenant or occupant.
• The owner did not grant permission to possess or use the property.

This documentation may help law enforcement, attorneys, and other professionals evaluate the situation and determine the appropriate response under local law.

Why Register in Advance?

Once an unauthorized occupant has established a presence and claims a right to remain, recovering possession may require formal legal proceedings.

Registering the vacancy beforehand creates a dated record of the property’s status. This can provide important evidence, reduce uncertainty, and help the owner respond more effectively if a problem arises.

Vacant Now Means Better Protected
