Meeting unknown prospective "buyers" alone at empty houses is cause for concern and planning.

In the wake of the abduction and murder of REALTOR Beverly Carter in Arkansas, real estate companies throughout our region and across the country are having office meeting discussions about safety.

Does your office have a plan to help protect agents from harm? Coldwell Banker does, thank goodness.
