Real Estate Private Equity Group Streamlines Security with Cloud-Based Access Control and Video Surveillance Solutions

Established in 2004, this large New York based real estate group has expertise in the acquisition, development, and management of affordable housing communities.  They have a proven track record of taking proactive steps to safeguard the affordability and quality of multifamily housing for its residents.

The Challenge

Managing security across multiple properties presents significant challenges, particularly when it comes to managing access control and security camera systems. The customer needed a simplified way to onboard new tenants, monitor security activity across all locations, and eliminate the inefficiencies of maintaining separate security systems at each site.

The Solution

To address these challenges, the customer partnered with Linx Security to design and implement a cloud-based security system. Linx Security deployed an integrated Brivo keycard system and Eagle Eye video surveillance system across all properties. This solution eliminated the need for separate on-site servers at each location, providing the management team with full visibility and control through a single, centralized login.

With this system in place, individual property managers can now administer keycard system access and monitor security cameras at their respective sites, while corporate management retains oversight of all properties remotely in a unified interface. Additionally, because the access control and video surveillance systems are fully integrated, all keycard access events are synchronized with corresponding video footage, significantly reducing the time required to locate relevant security recordings.

The Results

By implementing a streamlined, cloud-based security system installation, the customer has greatly improved efficiency in managing tenant access and monitoring security across multiple properties. The ability to oversee all locations remotely from a single platform has enhanced security operations while reducing administrative burden. Now, the firm can focus more on what it does best—developing and managing high-quality real estate properties while maintaining a secure environment for tenants and stakeholders.
