Dog Repellants, Pepper Sprays and Personal Alarms Among Items Suggested By Real Estate Agent Safety.com
3/23/06 - With recent stories in the media surfacing of several agents being assaulted while showing properties to clients, online resource Real Estate Agent Safety.com (http://www.realestateagentsafety.com) is urging real estate agents nationwide to take precautions to ensure their own safety.
"The recent news stories we've seen underscore the need for real estate agents to take personal safety more seriously," said a spokesperson for the website. "Whether it be enrolling in a self defense course, carrying pepper spray, or using some kind of personal alarm system, what may seem to be an afterthought right now could turn out to be a life saver in a dangerous situation."
Real Estate Agent Safety.com specializes in tips, resources, and safety products uniquely geared toward the situations real estate professionals face on a daily basis. Featuring items such as pepper sprays, dog repellants, GPS trackers, and personal alarms, the site hopes to both raise awareness to dangers and offer suggestions on how to stay safe.
"Getting a copy of a client's ID, and meeting first at your office where others in your office can see them is the first step toward protecting yourself," the spokesperson added. "Making sure you have either the equipment or the know-how to protect yourself once you are alone with that client is the next step. Hopefully, our site will help prevent other agents from being involved in situations like the ones we've been reading about recently."
