U.S. LawShield®, industry leader and America's largest provider of Legal Defense for Self Defense® coverage, announces a free resource available to real estate agents called “Staying Safe: The 5-Step Road Map to Real Estate Agent Safety and Peace of Mind.”
“Real estate professionals face a multitude of safety risks in their everyday work,” said P.J. Hermosa, CEO of U.S. LawShield. “They are often in unfamiliar locations with strangers, and because life-threatening situations can happen anytime and anywhere, they need to understand how to protect themselves,” he stated. “While you may know how to defend yourself in your own home, what about when you are in someone else’s? Are you aware of the potential risks and how to prevent them?” Hermosa asked.
According to 2020 statistics from the National Association of REALTORS® Member Safety Report, one in four REALTORS has had a dangerous encounter while on the job. “Personal safety must be a priority for hard-working real estate agents, and awareness of the safety risks they face at work should be second nature. With this resource, we introduce them to thinking about potentially dangerous situations in a new way,” he said.
The free download is tailored specifically to help real estate agents learn situational awareness. It features safety practices for agents as they conduct open houses, show properties, work in offices, drive alone or with clients, and more.
