From open houses to showings and client meetings, staying aware and prepared is key. Simple steps, like positioning yourself near exits, securing valuables, and scanning your surroundings, can make a big difference. Refer to this essential checklist to ensure your safety.
Let's be real - as a REALTOR®, you're constantly meeting new people you've never seen before, often in empty houses, remote properties, or unfamiliar neighbourhoods. It's just part of the job, but it also means you can end up in some pretty vulnerable situations. Your safety should always come first, no matter how promising a client seems or how big the commission might be.
So how do you protect yourself when things feel off or potentially dangerous?
Take our 4-question quiz and prove you're a safety-first REALTOR®.

We would like to acknowledge the Indigenous Peoples in whose traditional territory we work and live: the Anishinabek; the Haudenosaunee; and the Lunaapeew. The three distinct First Nations communities within the Middlesex-London area are: Chippewas of the Thames First Nation; Oneida Nation of the Thames; and Munsee-Delaware Nation. We acknowledge the many longstanding treaty relationships between Indigenous Nations and Canada – including the London Township Purchase of 1796 between the Anishinabek and the Crown. This territory is now home to many First Nations, Metis, and Inuit peoples.
Each of us must honour these relationships, and we all have a responsibility to reconcile.
