Vision
A house which allows neighbours and people walking past a clear and uninterrupted view of the home makes it less likely to be broken into.
A large front fence is ideal for privacy, but provides perfect cover for intruders. Bushes and trees that obscure windows and doors can make good hiding places.
Property Identification
Property is less likely to be stolen if it is marked using
the Queensland Police Service property identification system.
Further information is available by obtaining a copy of the
property identification brochure from your local police station.
