Real estate is surprisingly one of the most dangerous professions in the world - we are the only professionals that meet complete strangers at a property and often find ourselves behind closed doors with people we don’t know.
There are so many safety details we overlook, endangering our lives and the lives of our clients in the process, but this can be avoided with a few changes and decisions.

What are some of the safety mistakes agents make?
In this episode, I’m joined by “Tracey, the Safety Lady” Hawkins. She shares her expertise on steps we can take to keep ourselves, our clients, and their possessions safe throughout the entire transaction.
