The First Places Burglars Go in Your Home

The FBI says the average home burglary takes just 8 minutes. With that kind of turn around, you can bet there’s targeted agenda. The first place burglars hit is the master bedroom: dresser, drawers, under the mattress and closet shoeboxes. Second hotspot: the fridge! The freezer or fridge and cereal boxes and cans tend to get hit looking for fakes that actually hold valuables.

If you have a safe, bolt it to the ground. Easy to find safes that aren’t can be carried away. Other hotspots: a study or home office, books (looking for fakes that hold valuables) and your medicine cabinet.

Are you hiding valuables in any of these spots? Stay a step ahead. Hope this info helps!
