Before you leave your home/workplace for the day or vacation – stop for a minute.

Look at your house, apartment or work vehicle as if you were a burglar.

Which path would you choose? Are valuable items visible through the window? Is the attic door really locked? Is the garage door remote control left in the car? Have the stairs been left out?

Most burglaries are not about skill. They are about opportunities.

That extra minute before you leave can be the cheapest insurance you have.
