There is a tendency for crime rates to increase both around this time of year and during difficult economic times. A fact even the government acknowledges.
At the moment therefore, we are on a hiding to nothing if past experiences remain true!
Even though findings of a survey commissioned by Allianz Insurance recently revealed that the majority of people believe they are likely to become victims of property crimes such as burglary, car theft or vandalism as a direct result of the current ecomomic difficulties sweeping across the UK.
There are however some simple, relatively inexpensive ways you can protect your worldly possessions. Installing good quality window locks and burglar alarm systems in your home can often prove effective deterrents for any opportunist thief (as long as you remember to use them that is!)
Protecting your cars are a slightly different matter but again, fitting say a steering wheel immobiliser, burglar alarm and/or an immobiliser in your car you will undoubtedly offer some kind of deterrent making any potential thief thinking twice before attempting to break in.
The extra security measures could even bring your insurance premiums down a little, or at the very least avoid any loading to your insurance premium.
It is important to remember however that if you have declared these extra security measures, your insurer will expect you to use them. Failure to do so, could invalidate any claim!
