My mom has a cottage on Lake Michigan that doesn’t get used much which is why I’m asking.
Secure all the windows and doors. Pay for a quality security system, preferably monitored and with exterior cameras that are cloud-based. The key is being able to react immediately to the initial break-in and showing it was a break-in. The timely response of the police will not give them time to fix the evidence of the break-in and replace the locks on the doors. The exterior cameras should be able to prove the break-in as well. If there is clear evidence of a break-in it will go a long way in most jurisdictions to avoiding it ever becoming a landlord-tenant issue. These are merely basic tips and their effectiveness would be heavily impacted by jurisdictional laws.
