February 16, 2007, Newsletter Issue #147: A worry-free vacation begins at home

Tip of the Week

As you prepare to leave on the lavish and exotic/or quick and cheap trip you have booked, invest some time in making sure your homecoming is happy: alert the police when you will be gone so they can keep an eye on your house during their rounds...put lights on a timer to give the illusion of someone being home...ask a neighbor to park their car in your driveway for the same reason...arrange for newspapers and mail to be suspended or collected in your absence. If you don´t have an alarm system consider getting one- it should lower your insurance rates as well as protect your family and your belongings whether you´re home or not.
