CRIME PREVENTION TIP

 

THINKING OF MOVING?

 

Assess The Area Before Moving In

 

Some of the things that you should consider before purchasing a home or moving into a rental property are:

What is the general maintenance standard of surrounding properties, streets and parklands?

This is a good indicator of the concern that residents have for their neighbourhood, and will tell you much about the area.

What is the quality of the overall street lighting? This will involve visiting the neighbourhood after dark.

Some areas are quite different after the sun goes down, and it is recommended you visit them before you purchase a new house or move into a rental property.

What is the proximity to transit? How far will you be required to walk to and from transit facilities, and what is the neighbourhood like when it is dark?

How close are the schools in the area? How far will your children be required to walk to and from education facilities?

What is the traffic flow in the area, and what is the availability of sidewalks?
