Testimonials

Find out what our clients say about us

A pleasure to deal with

We turned to Bradley & his team at LIG after experiencing two periods of squatting at one of our properties and finding that our usual alarm systems were not providing sufficient protection at that particular property.

The team at LIG made life completely easy for us, overseeing the works to bring the property to a suitable standard for occupation & dealing with all the necessary paperwork.

Since using them on this first property we have gone on to utilise both their Live-in Guardian & Live-in Caretaker services at a number of properties and they have been professional and a pleasure to deal with on every occasion.

Over £100k saved

We employed Live-in Guardians to safeguard our building in WC2 which was vacant awaiting planning permission. This has not only helped us reduce our costs, including a significant reduction in our empty business rates (over £100,000), but given us peace of mind that our building is protected and safe.

From the initial appointment of Live-in Guardians, they offered an innovative and cost effective approach to vacant property protection. We found all staff and Guardians helpful, responsive and a pleasure to deal with. Without hesitation, we would strongly recommend the service Live-in Guardians has to offer based on our own positive experience.

LIG was outstanding

We recently used Live-in Guardians to secure our vacant care home whilst we were going through a planning process. I couldn’t be more impressed with their service. From start to finish, their knowledgeable and helpful team demonstrated exceptional efficiency and professionalism. I was amazed at how quickly they got the building ready for Guardian occupation. I expected it to take 4-6 weeks, but Live-in Guardians had their whole team at the property and turned the building around in 2 weeks.

When it came time to hand my property back, the process was seamless with the team handling everything quickly, ensuring the property was returned on time and in even better condition than when it was handed over. The team at Live-in Guardians managed the full process to ensure all Guardians left on time, which meant the property was handed back with vacant possession, avoiding any delays to our future plans for the building.

Overall, we had a fantastic experience with Live-in Guardians, and I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a reliable and professional cost-effective solution to secure their vacant building.

Not only were our properties protected, Live-in Guardians were also able to dramatically reduce our empty rates liabilities.

Cost effective solution

We at Londonewcastle have found Live-in Guardians to be responsive, reliable and proactive in resolving any issues that have arisen during the course of their appointment. The nil management fee that Live-in Guardians offers ensures that we, the client, receive a very cost effective solution, especially when compared to other alternatives on the market.

Live-in Guardians have ensured that our building is both protected and safe from squatters and vandals and most importantly, they have saved us over £100,000 in relation to our empty rates liability.

LIG proved to be fundamental

We were delighted with the service we received from LIG. During the enforced pub closures of COVID, the substantial listed property which we managed was broken into and vandalised when it was vacant. In addition, the upper floors were being refurbished which made them unsuitable for occupation. We did not want to fully board up the property but had genuine concerns over the security of the premises, which were shared by the local planning department.

Live-in Guardians found an experienced Guardian for us. They successfully prevented further attempted break-ins and kept the property secure until it was sold. The sale of the property took far longer than anticipated, but LIG were able to support us right through until the day of the sale. LIG proved to be fundamental in maintaining the physical security of the property, which could not have been achieved as effectively with boarding-up and remote monitoring.
