Buyer questions

What buyers askbefore hiring AMB.

How quickly can you deploy officers in San Francisco?

Most standard requests are staffed in 24–72 hours. Urgent and fire watch requests are typically staffed next day — call our 24/7 dispatch directly to confirm same-day availability.

Do I need on-site, mobile patrol, or hybrid?

On-site fits high-traffic, customer-facing posts (lobbies, hotels, gates). Mobile patrol fits after-hours, vacant property, and multi-site portfolios. Hybrid layers both for the best cost-to-coverage ratio. Use our Recommend My Model tool above for a personalized answer.

Do you serve my property type?

Yes — we staff apartments, condos, HOAs, offices, hotels, construction, parking, retail, mixed-use, industrial, and event properties. Tell us your property type and we'll match the right officer profile.

Do you cover my San Francisco neighborhood?

AMB actively patrols 14+ SF neighborhoods including SoMa, Mission, Mission Bay, FiDi, Marina, Pacific Heights, Nob Hill, Hayes Valley, Castro, Sunset, Dogpatch, Bayview, and the Embarcadero. Don't see your block? Ask — we likely already operate near you.

How are your officers supervised?

1 supervisor for every 8 officers, with random in-person spot-checks, GPS-verified patrols, and supervisor sign-off on every daily report before it reaches you.

A security record your ownership can stand behind.
