One of the best ways to out think the prospective burglar, who may well take up temporary residence in your home, is to put yourself in his shoes. The typical owner thinks like a homeowner, not like a burglar. The “professional” burglar approaches his job like a science, like a career that must be learned over a period of time. Like a doctor or lawyer, a smart burglar studies a given subject (namely home security methods) and devises a reaction to ultimately achieve his goal. It’s a battle of wits, hardly an entertaining game, but a game that you must still win to protect your valuables. Consider some confessions of dangerous burglars and the facts behind the confession.

While home security systems are often targeted at homeowners, it is important to note that rental homes are just as much of a target for burglars and criminals as owner-occupied homes. In fact, a rental unit may be even more of a target due to the fact that renters are perceived to be less likely to take measures regarding security.
