"is is the only mobile system for property preservation today that will provide mortgage servicers with an enhanced, multimedia look into their portfolios," said Alan Jaffa, CEO of Safeguard. "Video, with the addition of audio, will help Safeguard and its vendor network tell a better story about each property. If a photo is worth 1,000 words, video will speak volumes."

"It is our mission to provide preservation services and innovative technologies that proactively protect our clients' assets and communities across the country. Video and audio capabilities continue Safeguard's tradition of investing in technologies that help solve the industry's most challenging problems," said George Mehok, Chief Information Officer for Safeguard. e initial implementation of video has a risk-based focus on assessments for basements, roofs, plumbing systems, floors, and exterior conditions are currently those triggers, which represent some of the more challenging property preservation perils for mortgage servicers.
