derelict property

Derelict property refers to buildings or land that have fallen into disrepair and are often abandoned. This type of property may show signs of neglect, such as crumbling structures, overgrown vegetation, or lack of maintenance. Derelict properties can pose safety hazards and reduce the value of surrounding areas. They may also attract criminal activity and become eyesores in neighborhoods. Often, local authorities may take steps to rehabilitate or demolish such properties to revitalize the area and enhance community safety and aesthetics.
