September Safety Tip: Don't Discount Your Feelings by NAR

"Every person I have ever interviewed that was victimized said they knew something was wrong before it happened. But they didn't do anything about it, they didn't want to think it could happen to them. But it did." -Robert Siciliano, CEO of IDTheftSecurity.com, who has taught classes on personal security to real estate agents across the country.

He says whether you're in the middle of Montana or downtown Boston, there are assaults on men and woman happening every minute. According to the FBI, there are 270 serial killers walking the streets every day along with nearly 750,000 sex offenders, and there are 2.2 million burglaries and home invasions every year. "We live in a somewhat violent society. That's not going to change," Siciliano says. "But being proactive and putting systems in place can give you a fighting chance."
