friend or relative is OK with it, give them your firearms to hold onto as well.
FIGURE OUT VULNER T VULNERABILITIES B ILITIES BEFOREHAND
Could you determine where your screams will not be heard from outside in your home? Do not accompany them to any of those areas, period. For example, if you know that no one will be able to hear you yell from your basement, send all prospective buyers down there by themselves. To test this, have someone outside your home, preferably on the sidewalk or in front of your neighbor’s home, and scream in different areas of the house.
ASK FOR IDENTIFI ENTIFICATION
When prospective buyers see your home, ask them to show you their identification, such as a driver’s license. If they refuse to show you or do not have it with them, tell them that they will need to come back later when they have their identification or that you do not allow people into your home unless they show it to you if they begin to argue with you over this or have an issue with it in general, shut and lock your door. Better safe than sorry, in all cases! The argument is not worth losing your belongings—or your life.
PLEASE DON'T GIVE THEM P N'T GIVE THEM PERSONAL DETAILS
For example, if you are on vacation next week and the house will be completely vacant the whole time, do not say so. Please do not give them any details about your personal life, period. The less they know about you and your life, the better! They’re here to buy a house, not be your friend.
