Gate tailgating and unregistered visitors
A code shared once ends up shared forever. Nobody watching the gate live means nobody actually knows who's on the property.
Covenant violations nobody can prove
An unauthorized rental, a parked commercial vehicle, an unapproved structure — a neighbor's word against another's, with no timestamped record either way.
Vandalism and theft in common areas
Pools, clubhouses, mailrooms, and parking areas sit unmonitored after hours, exactly when incidents happen.
