Preventive Maintenance Checklist for Vacant Properties

Monthly: water supply and tanks, visible leaks, electrical mains, locks and gate condition, and general security of the boundary.

Quarterly: roof and drainage before and after the monsoon, damp patches, paint condition, and pest activity.

Annually: geyser and air-conditioning servicing, wiring inspection, and a full photographic record for comparison against the previous year.

An empty property deteriorates quietly. Documented, scheduled visits are far cheaper than the repairs that follow neglect.
