ARE HOME

Security Systems

WORTH THE INVESTMENT?

By Julie Achtermeier

Looking to sell your Waterfront Property? Call me for your free Property Evaluation $1,675,000 Statistics Canada released figures in 2015 showing that crime rates have been continuing to decline over the past ten years.

While there are many theories about why this trend is occurring, one is the widespread adoption of home security systems. But are they necessary? The question is not an easy one to answer.

Deciding to purchase a home security system is an intensely personal one and goes far beyond a simple cost analysis. Putting a price on peace of mind is hard to measure, especially if you have children in the home.

While there are many reliable systems on the market at various price points, take time to do the research and also examine your reasons for wanting one in the first place. Depending on where you live, perhaps your concerns could be addressed with some simple improvements to locks on your doors and windows and by adopting a few new habits to ensure your home is not inviting unwanted intruders.

Identify Your Goals

Consider what a security system means to you and why you think you need it. If your goal is deterring burglary, it’s easy to see that security systems make a difference, specifically in areas where crime rates are high. If you are also looking for better smoke alarms and carbon monoxide protection with alerts to a monitoring company, make sure you find a company that offers a solution that takes all of your needs into consideration.

Protect Irreplaceable Values

No security system is 100% fool-proof, so if your neighbourhood has a low rate of home invasions, you may be satisfied to keep heirlooms or other sentimental items in a safety deposit box or fireproof$1,995,000 safe.

While home security systems will significantly reduce the likelihood of a robbery, the cost may not be worth the risks if you live in an area that experiences very few break-ins.

Check Your Insurance

Most major insurance companies in Canada offer significant discounts for homes that are electronically protected against theft, vandalism and fire. A reduction in your insurance costs can help offset the cost of a security system and make its purchase more affordable if you do decide it’s is the right decision for you. Before you choose a home security solution, ask your insurance company about their discounts.

Local Law Enforcement

It would be worth a quick phone call to your local police service to find out their response times when a security system alarm is activated, and whether there are any charges or fines for false alarms.

Improving Your Home Security Without an Alarm System

Putting your mind at ease could be as simple as taking the time to ensure your home is not a target for a potential thief. Local police departments can provide a checklist so you can perform a safety audit of your home. They also offer tips online to improve your door and window security, reduce risks of a home invasion while you’re away and how to give your home an appearance that deters thieves.

Call for a complete Cottage Evaluation!

Understand All the Costs

Most home security systems have an initial set up cost for the equipment, and then a monthly fee for use. Be sure you understand the full commitment and whether you’re signing up for month-by-month usage, or for an extended contract period.

keeping your home

” Stage

Ready

By Julie Achtermeier

It’s not uncommon to scramble and stress when it’s time to put your house on the market. All those little jobs and fixes that never got done are now an overwhelming list of “to dos.” Don’t let the tasks pile up.

By making simple updates now, you can better enjoy your home while it’s still very much your home, and it will be ready to show when it’s time to list. Here are some inexpensive ways to give your home a staged appearance every day:

Complete unfinished jobs We all have that list of nagging little fixes that we haven’t gotten around to yet. These often include minor repairs like replacing light fixtures, repairing baseboards or painting trim. To get started, grab a notepad and wander from room to room making a list of any unfinished jobs you can tackle quickly to bring your rooms up to snuff.

Update your door handles and knobs

Replace door handles and knobs with styles and colours that are current. Shiny gold door knobs are no longer fashionable and are not unlikely to come back in anytime soon. Update an entire floor with a brushed nickel or pewter look which is very trendy and can go a long way to updating your space. Likewise, update faded or scratched cabinet knobs and handles in your kitchen for a fresh new look.

”

Declutter, declutter, declutter There’s a great deal of psychology that suggests a cluttered house leads to a cluttered mind, but it can be difficult to know where to start.

Before tackling bigger jobs, adopt the mantra “every item needs a home.” In other words, if magazines don’t have a rack to file into, they will remain cluttered on your coffee table.

Craft items without a bin will remain scattered across your dining room table. Pick an area and determine where items should go. Then invest in bins, baskets or a cupboard and put away the items you use regularly. Throw out old papers and knick-knacks that serve no purpose, file bills and important papers and find a home for anything you want to keep.

Get in the habit of putting things “in their home” instead of leaving them on the counter or kitchen table.

Easy decorating It’s easier than ever to find cost-effective accent pieces to update a tired room. For about $100, you can change throw pillows, add a new piece of wall art or find a seasonal tablecloth. For a simple bathroom update, replace the builder’s mirror with a pretty framed one and add new designer towel racks. A simple change can spruce up your home, and your mood.

Spruce up the outside With many of us having busy schedules and constantly running in and out, it’s not uncommon to overlook the state of the outside of our homes. Simple tasks like adding a new welcome mat, pruning shrubs and keeping a seasonal arrangement in an urn by the front door are quick ways to enhance your curb appeal.
