In every 15 seconds, a home is burglarized. In this age of rising crime, it is wise to have a home monitoring system to enhance your home’s security. Home monitoring systems are of many varieties (wired and wireless) and prices, ranging from a single device to a set of devices. You can even set up your own home monitoring system by assembling gadgets, according to their feature and price, which you think required for the security of your home. You can either monitor your own alarms or hire a home monitoring service to do it for you.

First and foremost, you need to get a home monitoring system installed. Different home monitoring systems have different gadgets as their components. Most of them contain door and window alarms. These sensors are programmed to detect suspicious movements and sound an alarm. Driveway alarms are installed in the driveway and provide the advantage of sounding an alarm before the burglar has broken into the house rather than after as is the case of motion detectors. The disadvantage here is that the burglar may not enter via the driveway.

Motion detectors are also put to use in designing a home security system. Apart from sending alerts on sensing movement, they can be used to provide lighting or announce warning to deter the burglar. Glass break detectors are also useful components of a home security system. Another clever way to deter burglars is to use signs and decals on your doors, windows. and maybe in your driveway to tell the burglars of an installed home security system. It is unlikely that a burglar will be brave enough to break into a home which has a foolproof home security system in place.

Having a home monitoring system helps you not only to deter burglars but also avoid encounters with the criminals. Such confrontations can be hazardous. By knowing when someone has broken into your home, you can ensure neither you nor your family members come in the way of these criminals. Home monitoring systems also have panic buttons so that in case of emergencies like someone trapped inside your house can seek help. Apart from burglaries, your possessions may be endangered by a fire or water leakage. Smoke-detectors and carbon-monoxide detectors can send alarm signals to you and the fire brigade when a threshold limit is crossed and danger is sensed. Similarly, flood or water detectors can detect if there is a water-excess inside your house.

Home monitoring systems are becoming a way of life with crime rates rising everywhere. But is it feasible for you to always monitor your security system alarms? If an alarm is sounded due to fire at home and you are attending a meeting, you may not come to know about it till it is too late. Or if you are on a holiday, you would certainly not like to spend most of your time checking to see if any alarm has gone off. This is why a home monitoring service is recommended. These agencies keep a constant vigil on your behalf. They monitor your alarms 24/7 to ensure that rapid action is taken even if you haven’t got the alert. They not only inform you but also inform the appropriate authorities like the police or hospital to make sure your family members are safe even when you are away.

First off, let me state that every person’s scenario is different. There are many factors in determining if you should sell now, or wait. Obviously, home values have declined since 2005/6. Condos and townhomes have especially been hit hard. So be prepared, if you are going to sell now, or soon- you would be selling for less than you bought it for. If you’re okay with this, then we need to look at what they are selling for now, and decide if you’re ready to list it at that going price point, or if you want to keep it and wait until the market returns. The problem here in waiting, is that when is the market going to return? In a year? In two years? 2014? It may be the best option to sell now, instead of waiting for the market. We are seeing an increased amount of Short Sales and Foreclosures in the market. You will have to compete with these “typically lower-priced” homes. Know that interest rates are ideal AND property values are declining, making it a great time for buyers to get into a home. And with the first-time home buyers tax credit of $8,000- it appears to be a good time to sell, for the year.

This brings me to my next point. When selling, you can either price it ahead of the market, or you can price it to where you are chasing the market. The best scenario is to price your house or condo ahead of the market, so that you will sell it quickly. The alternative is to price it similar to the others, where you are continually doing price reductions (with the market) and end up selling where you should have priced it all along in the first place, and it took a much longer period of time (which means -$$).

Great, what is my point? Just make sure you understand that to sell in this market right now, your home has to be priced properly AND has to show very well. The days of just putting your home on the market “right away” are gone. You have fierce competition in your marketplace and neighborhood, and you need to get with your Realtor and have a complete game plan. If you structure your game plan well before you hit the market, then you are aligning yourself with success and will more than likely hit it. Like I mentioned, you are in a fierce, competitive marketplace and if you don’t have a SOLID game plan, you will be left out in the cold. Worse yet, your house will be on the market and become that “stagnant house” down the street. In your game plan, your Realtor will give you an opinion on value of your house, so you must decide whether that price is acceptable to sell, or whether you need to wait and possibly rent. Right now, a lot of sellers have decided they don’t want to sell in this tough market. That is just fine as long as you don’t HAVE to sell right now. Renting out your home might be a viable option right now, but know that being a landlord is work. Problems come up with the house, you get the wrong tenants, etc. It can take a lot of time and money.

As far as what is a good time to put your condo on the market (if you decide to sell and take the hit), I think that now might be the best time. Showings are up during the spring and summer, the $8,000 tax credit is out there, and new construction and sellers are offering fantastic deals and incentives. Typically, the winter months are slower, and I would say that your best chance to sell would be in the Spring and Summer. But with the rates being at where they are now, this gives buyers the chance to get in with a good rate, if qualified.

It is up to you to decide what is best for you. Each scenario is different, and you must make the decision yourself, hopefully with some guidance from your Realtor. It may be best for you to wait, but rates sure are low right now. With unemployment going up, home values will decline further. If you price it right now, and it looks good on the inside, and you have a solid marketing plan, you should be able to compete to sell. A lot of the people sitting on the fence have come out to buy with the way rates are right now, and with the first-time homebuyer tax credit.

Good luck, and do your homework before hiring your Realtor!
