Real estate agents are particularly vulnerable to crime. Many agents are so focused on making sales that they often fail to take the time to think about safety. Here are some very important tips that can help keep agents safe while pursuing career success.

Learn to trust your instincts,your guts. If you sense that something is wrong about a certain situation or person,you are probably right.

Criminals target real estate agents because they know that the nature of this business requires agents to sometime be alone when doing an open house or show off a property. So it is necessary that you as a real estate agent take your personal security as seriously as you pursue a sale.

Take along a friend. If at all possible, have a friend come along with you when you do an open house or meet with potential buyers. This will greatly decrease the possibility of some one trying to rob or assault you.

Meet with potential buyers at the office first. Before you go out in the field to meet with potential buyers have them come to the office and collect their personal information, like their driver’s license.
