Almost 6 years on my birthday our home was burglarized. This post is on tips on how to protect yourself from home burglary based on things I learned going through the experience. Twice.
What are the chances?! My family’s home was burglarized when I was 11 and then my own family’s home was burglarized as an adult.
No one was home, or hurt, either time, which was the most important thing, but once you are the victim of a crime like this, you are never quite the same. Which is why I wanted to write this post – in the hopes that some of these tips on how to protect yourself from home burglary might keep it from happening to one of you.
The truth is, no one thinks it could happen to them. I see neighbors leave windows wide open when they are not home, and I cringe, because I know, it can happen.
I am going to share my most important tip first. Please do this today, like after reading this post…
