Building security

In a building that I manage all unit owners/brokers have to register their open house with management. We ask for the broker(s) name(s) and that is given to the door staff along with the notice of the open house. If someone attempts to have an open house with registering, we do not allow potential buyers in. It's a hard stance but it has worked well and unit owners accepted it. In a non-doorman building we do something similar but we pay the Super extra to be present during the open house and we only allow open houses from 12-6pm.

      We do not allow OPEN HOUSE. No one is allowed in without the broker or the owner. No posting of signs on polls etc.

      This is no doorman building. We get management to bring in security during the hours of open house. All sign in and the seller has to pay the Co Op for this service.
