A property guardian is someone who lives in a vacant commercial or residential property at a reduced cost, in exchange for keeping the building secure and maintained. This lived-in presence helps deter anti-social behaviour and protects the building from deterioration, while offering affordable accommodation to young professionals, key workers and creatives.
