Professional patrol services, detailed incident reporting, and responsive protection, the kind of oversight that makes residents feel safe and boards sleep at night.
A complete community security program, not just a guard who drives through occasionally.
Officers patrol community perimeter, common areas, parking lots, pool facilities, and access points on your defined schedule, not ours. You set the frequency and hours; we execute them reliably, every shift.
Board-ready written incident reports filed within 24 hours of any event. No more vague logs, no more verbal summaries that get forgotten. Every incident documented with specifics your board can act on.
Visitor management, gate oversight, and unauthorized-entry response. Officers monitor who enters the community, log unusual vehicle or pedestrian activity, and intervene when access protocols are violated.
Officers respond to resident calls, de-escalate neighbor disputes, address noise complaints, and refer emergencies to appropriate law enforcement. Residents have someone to call, and someone actually shows up.
Late-night and overnight patrol when most incidents occur and most security companies are understaffed or absent. Our officers are specifically trained and scheduled for the hours that matter most.
Monthly reporting summaries, attendance at board meetings on request, and direct communication with your HOA management company. We integrate into your management structure, we don't create extra work for it.
Good HOA security serves the entire community, not just one group.
MT Security currently works with RealManage and 360 HOA among others across San Diego County. These relationships didn't happen by accident, they developed because we understand that the management company is the operational backbone of any HOA, and we've built our service delivery to work within that structure, not around it.
When we're brought in by a management company or introduced through a board, we coordinate directly with the property manager from day one. We learn the community's specific reporting requirements, preferred escalation protocols, and documentation formats. Our incident reports are written to be useful in board meetings, concise, factual, and actionable.
If your management company currently works with another security provider and the relationship isn't meeting your community's needs, we're happy to do a confidential assessment. We'll tell you honestly whether we can do better, and what that would look like in practice.
This range reflects the full spectrum of San Diego HOA security engagements, from a smaller community needing three evening patrol shifts per week, to a large 300+ unit development requiring overnight officers seven nights a week.
Factors That Affect Cost
The right way to determine your cost is a free, no-obligation community assessment. We'll review your community's size, layout, incident history, and coverage goals, and provide a specific quote, not a vague range.

Residential communities seeking professional patrol and incident documentation
Officers patrol on a defined schedule, log all observations, respond to resident concerns during their shift, and file written incident reports for the board. The patrol schedule, including which areas, at what frequency, and during which hours, is established during the initial assessment and customized for your community. Coverage is not passive; officers are actively looking for issues and responding to them, not just driving through.
Typical HOA security contracts in San Diego range from $3,000 to $10,000 per month. Smaller communities needing limited evening coverage fall at the lower end; larger developments with nightly officers and access control needs fall at the higher end. Armed officers cost more than unarmed. The most accurate way to get pricing for your community is a free assessment, call (619) 765-2222 or submit a request and we'll provide a specific quote within 24 hours.
Yes. We currently work with both RealManage and 360 HOA in San Diego County, along with other management companies. We integrate clean into existing management structures, coordinating directly with property managers, matching our reporting to your documentation requirements, and reducing administrative burden rather than adding to it. If your management company wants to evaluate us as a preferred vendor, we welcome that conversation.
The officer responds immediately, assesses the situation, takes appropriate action (which may include de-escalation, controlled removal of individuals, or law enforcement coordination), and documents everything. Within 24 hours, a written incident report is filed for your board records. If the situation warrants immediate board or management notification, a serious incident, major property damage, or anything requiring urgent decisions, we escalate directly rather than waiting for the scheduled report.
Tell us about your community and what you're looking for. We'll respond within 24 hours with a clear, specific assessment and quote, no obligation.
