Real Estate Agent Safety: Situational Awareness & Defense Options

Empowering Agents with Practical Safety Strategies

​

Real estate professionals often work alone, meet with unknown clients, and enter unfamiliar properties—creating unique safety challenges. This course is designed to provide real estate agents with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to protect themselves in a variety of situations. We focus on proactive safety strategies, emphasizing situational awareness, risk assessment, and conflict de-escalation. Agents will also be introduced to a range of personal defense options, both non-lethal (such as pepper spray, stun devices, and improvised tools) and lethal (firearms), with an emphasis on responsible decision-making, legal considerations, and practical application.

​

Topics Include:

• Personal Safety Mindset for Agents

• Situational Awareness & Pre-Attack Indicators

• De-escalation Techniques & Verbal Boundaries

• Open House & Showing Safety Protocols

• Non-Lethal Tools: Pros, Cons, and Deployment

• Introduction to Lethal Force Options & Legal Considerations

• Real-Life Scenarios & Role-Playing Exercises

• When to Act: Threat Recognition & Use-of-Force Decision-Making

• Interacting with Law Enforcement After an Incident

 

This course is ideal for new and experienced agents seeking to improve personal safety without sacrificing professionalism or client trust. No prior experience with self-defense or firearms is required.
