Take the REALTOR® Safety Pledge!

As a REALTOR®, my first priority is the well-being and safety of myself, my REALTOR® colleagues, the clients and customers we serve, and the business partners who foster our profession.

Therefore, I pledge to always conduct business and prospecting activities in a reasonably safe manner, which includes following the recommendations from the National Association of REALTORS® and adhering to the Safe Listings Form to the best of my ability.

I am committed to receive education and in turn to advise consumers and colleagues on best safety practices.

REALTORS® are committed to safety, and I take this pledge because I care about the wellbeing of myself, my clients and customers, my colleagues, and my profession.

Quick Safety Tips Right Now

Top 10 REALTOR® Safety Tips For You

  1. Keep it light. Show properties before dark. If you are going to be working after hours, advise your associate or first-line supervisor of your schedule.
  2. Check in. When you have a new client, ask him/her to stop by your office.
  3. Don’t be too public. Limit the amount of personal information you share.
  4. Touch base. Always let someone know where you are going and when you will be back.
  5. Open house safety. Don’t assume that everyone has left the premises at the end of an open house. Check all of the rooms and the backyard prior to locking the doors.
  6. Social Media. What you should never post.
  7. Stranger Danger. Tell your clients not to show their home by themselves. Alert them that not all agents, buyers and sellers are who they say they are.
  8. Sturdy doors are key to home safety.
  9. Block identity theft.
  10. Keep track of colleagues.
  11. Wear your REALTOR® ID. Always wear visible company identification such as a badge.
