Home Insurance Guide

I know it sounds a little silly but one of the easiest things you can do to ensure your home is secure is to double check your windows and doors every single time you leave your apartment, condo, or house. A lot of times you’ll open a window or unlatch your sliding back door, go outside, and then pull it closed behind you - forgetting to lock it up because you aren’t going anywhere. Then, a few hours or a day later, you leave without thinking about the door … and you have unlocked doors and windows giving open access to your home. See how easy it is to leave your house exposed? If you have an alarm, it’s not that bad because the alarm system will still protect you (and let you know if you left the sensor tripped), but it’s easier to prevent access in the first place.
