Only give your house key to a professional house cleaner if you trust them. When giving your house cleaner the key to your home, you need to be sure that they are reputable and honest. Check the housekeeper’s references very carefully. If this professional is from a company, it’s best to check with the Better Business Bureau to see what kind of reputation they have.

TIP! Your home should always look like it is occupied. You can buy timers to have radios, TVs, lights and other electronics go off and on at different times.

This works very well if you have a pet that is not very fond of strangers. You will get the access you need without having to worry about your safety.

Good home security systems sound a loud alarm when breached, and that’s not all. They often even alert you to any time a door is opened. This can be valuable to parents with small children as they are made aware their child has opened or closed a door.

TIP! Once you buy a house, switch out the locks. Many people may have been given keys by the former owner.
