An empty house in London can quickly become vulnerable to vandalism, water damage, trespassing, damp, and maintenance problems if it is left unmanaged for too long. Whether the property is between tenants, awaiting sale, undergoing probate, or preparing for refurbishment, owners should take steps to protect both the building and its long-term value.
