Chances are that if you live in the house for five years or more, you are the victim of a burglary or home invasion would be that the distinction is whether the house is occupied or not. A home invasion is a line, forced or not, when the house is occupied.

2004, said the Office of Legal Affairs that:

-77% Of all crime was property related

-17% Of all locations of crime in breach of an intruder

-85% Of all burglaries the offenderaccess to housing or other buildings.

Property crime occurred one every 3 seconds, a home burglary every 15 seconds, rather frightening statistic.

The good news is that 90% of all burglaries at home and prevent attacks by following some basic tactical common sense. Think about it. If you have an intruder who might be looking for a target to steal. Believe it or not, most thieves are smart enough and are just looking for an easy target, not the big challenges.It's no fun to catch.

Wants to see a lot of coverage so that he can not be seen inside the residence, shrubs, trees, etc.

Sought a place of Windows is interesting so you can see in the house to see what was available for him to steal.

Would look for a hostel in relative obscurity. The light is certainly not a friend of a burglar.

Wants to seesigns, literal signs that, if a place is guaranteed in any way to advertise. Signs of a security company, a sign of NRA membership, "Beware of dogs waiting," "Neighborhood Watch" signs, etc.

Also examined whether there is a visible deterrent, such as cameras, bars on the windows below.

Wants to see a model of the wall leaving windows or garage doors open.

When no self-respect thief does not work, which is looking for different elements, when "cases" future goals. Heneeds of the time in the dark, and of course a reason to steal an item of residence. "Look" at home is very important that a thief too. If you take measures to remain "attractive" to make the possibility of a thief are pretty good you will pass your residence and choose a more vulnerable.

Chances are good that you read this, because in some way crime has touched your life, if you want to be proactive and protect themselves, family, home or business from teethcrime. This is the first step.
