The device has a no-motion sensor, which triggers an alarm if senses no movement for a fixed time period. First it gives an audible warning, if this is not acknowledged an alert signal is sent out to a website in the realtors office, a Text message to their teams cell phones or via Email. Alternatively, if the person is feeling threatened, they can press the 'Panic' button, which instantly send out the alert. The device is fitted with a high spec GPS locator, which will give the persons position in real time (as well as leave a 15 minute breadcrumb trail). If this is of interest, please feel free to call me on 604-889-2429, or email me at george@pureworld.ca Be safe out there!

I decided to design a website that allows agents to conduct Open Houses entirely over the Internet. The site is called www.openhousebroadcast.com and by using a laptop, webcam, and wireless broadband connection; a real estate agent can invite anyone, living anywhere in the world, to attend their next Open House. Not only that, but since the Open House Broadcast is done entirely over the internet via streaming video, there are never any unscreened prospects in the house with the agent; thus eliminating the "sitting duck" aspect of the Open House...

We are to trusting because one of our qualities is to be open and trusting. We know that the world has changed so much but we still trust. Maybe this trust must be temperered and re-looked at. Getting a copy of the buyers drivers license may be totally fine and give the buyer a bit more respect of us and our type of job not to mention how a woodbe felon would react.
