Just some important information regarding home security.
Did you know that most home burglaries are crimes of opportunity? A thief sees something valuable through a window or door — a laptop computer, an iPhone, a wallet or purse — and then breaks in and grabs it.
So it’s a good idea to keep valuables where they’re not easily seen by someone outside the home.
Here’s another good tip…
We all know to keep our doors locked. But are all your keys accounted for? Think of how many times you lend a key to a cleaner, contractor, friend or neighbour. So every month or so, do a key count. If one is missing, get your locks rekeyed or replaced.
I have a lot of experience as a REALTOR®. So I hear about home break-ins from time to time. It can be a devastating experience for the home owner… an experience I certainly wouldn’t want to happen to you.
So… keep your home safe.
