According to a white paper released on Monday, vacant or abandoned homes lose $70,000 of their value, but using clearboarding instead of plywood to secure residencies is helping to mitigate losses.

The ubiquitous material used for sealing up windows on vacant or damaged homes can, in some cases, cause more harm than good. What is the alternative?
