September is REALTOR®
Safety Month
As we kick off REALTOR® Safety Month this September, it's crucial for REALTORS® to prioritize their safety and keep the following statistics in mind.
NAR REALTORS® and Residential Member Safety Report reveals that 31 percent of members felt unsafe after receiving threatening or inappropriate communications, such as emails, texts, or calls. Additionally, 21 percent of these members encountered crimes following such interactions.
These numbers serve as a powerful reminder of the importance of vigilance and proactive safety measures in the REALTOR® profession.
