SAFETY PLEASE!!!!

Hi,

I just wanted to take a moment to remind everyone safety first. This has been a dangerous month it seems. Below are a few tips to help keep you safe.

The heat is unbearable at times. Remember if out in the sun wear sunscreen. We have had personal battles with screen cancer. Reschedule strenuous activities until cooler times such as early morning or late evenings. Drink plenty of fluids.

Keep all doors locked and never let a stranger in your home. I know this may seem silly, but in the past month I have had clients called with strangers wanting to see inside their homes or letting themselves in. If you house is for sale, call the agent to show. If your children are home alone, tell them not to answer the door. Just remember you don't have to show your home to someone who is wanting to see the floor plan.

One last tip. If you use online banking. Make an effort to check it daily or weekly. This will help you catch fraud sooner. If something looks suspicious call your bank, even if you cant remember if it was you or not they will be able to give more details of the purchase and help to stop identity theft from happening to you.
