Why Credit Unions Should Utilize a National Preservation Company

 

Why Property Preservation is Important

Property preservation is an important aspect of managing a credit union's assets. When a borrower defaults on a loan, the credit union must take steps to protect its investment in the property. This may involve securing the property, maintaining the property, and eventually offloading of the property in a manner that maximizes the credit union's return on investment. Due to the many different laws and/or local requirements, it’s a good idea to use a national preservation company like SGPNOW to ensure you’re getting the best results possible.

 

Property Preservation Steps to Follow

  • One of the first steps in property preservation is securing the property. This involves changing the locks, boarding any broken windows and installing a lockbox for access. It is important to take these steps as soon as possible to prevent vandalism or squatting, which can further decrease the value of the property.
  • Finally, the credit union must decide how to offload of the property. This may involve selling the property through a real estate agent, auctioning it off, or renting it out. The chosen method should be the one that will maximize the credit union's return on investment.
