A few days ago I wrote a post about REALTOR safety. It is a subject I feel passionate about and one that I think is largely ignored by my peers. Yesterday I found a blog post written by Fred Carver who talked about the recent murder of a co-worker. It gave me chills reading about this very tragic death of real estate agent Lindsay Buziak. She had received a call from a potential customer who wanted to see a particular upscale home right away. The customer wanted to purchase a home by the end of the day. Lindsay like so many other agents would do… set up an appointment to show the vacant high priced home. She apparently told some people in her office that she felt uncomfortable but still she went to show the property. It was the last time that she would ever show a house… she was found dead..murdered in that home. How very sad. Please be careful out there and don’t take chances. Check out this weblog REALTOR Safety 911 and be sure to watch this video, I posted it the other day but really think it’s worth re-posting.

I thought I was going to have to break in…
This is a true story.
A listing was being shown by a co-broke. This was an un-accompanied showing…meaning No Listing Agent was present. As the co-broke was finishing the showing, a man pulled up and said “Thank God, I locked myself out of the house and I did not know how I was going to get back in. Boy am I glad I caught you… I thought I was going to have to break in!”
What would you do in this case? This house has a for sale sign on it and agents are coming and going. There is a visual tour on line, so a good thief can easily case the place and know what the inside is like. A good thief can also have a full crew with a moving van ready and the house would have been cleaned out in minutes! This day and age the neighbors would have thought nothing of a seeing a moving van.
The Co-broke….She let him in and left.

REALTOR Safety Alert
This week we had a Safety Alert go out through the REALTOR community and because I know that many REALTORS as well as consumers read my blog I thought I’d post this video as a reminder to all my peers and anyone selling a home to be careful. It seems as if someone posing as a buyer is trying to get REALTORS to show him houses…empty houses and he claims to be a cash buyer but all his information is false.
Trust your gut….
