Questions that get asked of realtors on a daily basis include “Is this a safe neighborhood?” or “How safe is this street?” or “What is the crime rate like in this community?” Today, we talk about that great question and why it may not be as easy for realtors to answer as you might think.

My name is Lou Lombardi... now here's the Dick Tracy of Real Estate... Jason Wilcox!

TALKING POINTS (3-5): • Introduction o Innocent question o Tougher to answer than you might think • Two main reasons we can’t answer that question: o Everyone’s definition of a “safe neighborhood” is different o Cannot steer clients • Other unethical behaviors coming out at the same time as steering o Panic-selling o Redlining • Why doesn’t the seller disclosure cover crime? • What can buyers do to get an answer to their questions? o Check online o Talk to neighbors o Call the local authorities o Check Megan’s Law • Final thoughts o Research BEFORE you make an offer on a home!
