Safety at open houses
The Real Estate Safety Counsel has recommended several safety precautions when showing an open house.
- know the escape routes - determine several if possible
- make sure deadbolt locks are unlocked
- walk behind the prospect when showing the house
- check-in with your office hourly
- have a prearranged emergency code word
- write down, if you can, the license numbers of all arriving prospects
- have someone stay with you
