Memo 1163 � Contractor Web Enhancements - High Risk Conditions
To: All Safeguard Contractors
From: R&D Department

The contractor web will be unavailable from 9:00 - 9:30am EST on Tuesday, 7/25/06, to allow Safeguard to amend the update form to include a new property condition reporting section. In order for this change to function properly, you MUST clear your java cache before re-entering the site.

Safeguard clients expect a full property condition report to be provided with each property visit. It is essential that unusual or high risk conditions at the property are reported immediately so appropriate action can be taken in a timely manner. The update is being amended to include a section where this information can be reported.

The following is a list of conditions that our clients would consider unusual or high risk conditions.

• Property has at least five units
• Property is intended for commercial usage (auto shop, laundromats, hair salons)
• Property includes at least five acres of land
• Mold growth affects over 50% of the home
• Property contains a meth lab, bio-hazards, or environmental issues (excess animal waste, blood, underground storage tanks)
• Property has an extensive amount of debris (junk yards, landfill, 200+ tires)
• Severe structural issues (near collapse, sink holes) are present
• Law enforcement or the health department has placed a posting on property
• Other abnormal preservation issue or dangerous condition not described above are present

Please begin to use this new field immediately. Do NOT list any of these conditions under the general comments section of your update.
