You could rent it out, but that means dealing with the hassle of finding and screening tenants and the risk that they&#8217;ll do damage to the place. You could leave everything as is and hope for the best, but that can be risky, too. If the pipes freeze and burst, the roof springs a leak, or the tenant throws a wild party and the police come, you&#8217;ll have to deal with the aftermath.<\/p>\n<p>Friant Insurance Agency is here to help all Temecula, CA condo owners understand how to protect your property when you&#8217;re out of town for an extended period of time.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How To Protect A Vacant Condo<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Keep up appearances. If&nbsp;the property appears to be vacant, it&#8217;s more enticing to criminals. Keep your security system running if you have one; even if you don&#8217;t, keep a security sign prominently displayed as a deterrent. Keep the blinds closed to prevent others from looking inside.<\/p>\n<p>Reach out to your neighbors or friends. See if you can get someone you trust to occasionally check in on your condo to ensure everything is okay. Better yet, ask a member of your condo association to do this.<\/p>\n<p>Consider insurance. Your condo association may have insurance covering vacant property for your unit&#8217;s structures and utilities. However, this is not a guarantee. If you&#8217;re leaving belongings inside your condo, you&#8217;re responsible for insuring them. Some insurance policies can even offer special &quot;vacant property&quot; coverage.<\/p>\n<p>If you own a condo in Temecula, CA, reach out to Friant Insurance Agency for more information on protecting your property when you&#8217;re out of town with the condo insurance you need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What do you do when you&#8217;re leaving a condo that you own and aren&#8217;t going to be around for an extended period?
