This is the second installment covering safety.
I am going to talk about buyer showings and appointments.
First of all, NEVER meet a prospect for the first time at a property. Always meet your customer at the office. Copy their drivers license and leave this and your itinerary with your broker. Have your customer pre-approved with a mortgage professional before showing property. Keep your cell phone on silent. Do not wear flashy clothes, jewelry, carry credit cards or large sums of money. Always go into the home through the front door.
Direct the customers through the home always keeping yourself between the customer and the exit. Have a secret code or phrase with your office in order for them to understand that you are in trouble. Make sure that it is something innocent, so that the customer is not alerted. Always have pepper spray or gel with you at the ready to use, if the emergency arises. It works on snakes, and other animals that may be a danger to you or your customer.
Remember that in order to lessen your risk of becoming a victim be aware of your surroundings and trust your sixth sense. Getting a sale is not as important as your safety.
