One of the biggest concerns forfamilies in and aroundBeaverton, Oregon,when they are looking to buy a home is “How safe isBeaverton?” Well, I personally feel Beaverton,Oregon, real estate is prettysafe, but what about when you aren’t around?
This is where the City of Beaverton police has reallystepped it up. I always used to hate going on vacationprior to buying an alarmfor my house and even then I still get a feeling in the pit of mystomach fromtime to time about all my stuff sitting back at home without me andreally justhoping it is still there when I get home. (I had my home broken in towhen Iwas in college, so I still never really got over that.)
So, how is the City of Beaverton helpingme feel more atease? They are starting a new program called “Vacation Check”. This is wherethey drive by your house from time to time, just to make sureeverything isalright while you area away. The only thing is that you have to submityourrequest at least 72 hours prior to going on vacation and the vacationcan’t befor less than 7 days and can be no longer than 3 weeks.
The BeavertonPolice department says thought there is noguarantee that a break in won’t still occur, they do feel that thiswill reducethe chances of a citizen who is a resident of Beaverton,Oregon, will have lessof a chance of becoming a victim thanks to this program. I personallyfeel thatthis program will help Beaverton,Oregon, real estate in the form of homevalues, because security really is a major component in value.
