​September is Agent Safety Month.
For many agents – new and tenured alike – safety protocols aren’t top of mind, especially in a busy market with new opportunities and prospective clients popping up daily.  Here are some simple safety precautions real estate professionals can take during home tours and open houses.
Verify Who You’re Meeting
Take initial meetings with clients outside of a home setting. Meet clients first in places like a coffee shop or in the office. Verifying the identity – and intentions – of each and every prospective client is a relatively simple precaution real estate professionals can take.

​Be aware, everywhere
  • Attacks happen both in metropolitan and in rural areas.
  • Men and women are equally susceptible to being attacked when working alone.
  • Use the buddy system. Bring along a colleague, mortgage professional, friend or family member to ensure they’re never completely alone in the home with strangers.
  • Share your schedule with others so someone always knows where they are – or should be.
Protect with tech
  1. Find My Friends and Find My iPhone features are the most popular options for ensuring others have safe access to an agent’s location.
  2. Use the tracking capabilities on your Iphone or Android.
  3. Apple AirTags is a small tracking devices that cost under $30 that can be kept on your keyring.
  4. Forewarn is an app that does an extensive background check on any individual.
  5. Life 360 is a location tracking services that can be used with a Buddy or a group.
