Survival is step one. We’re step two.

Armed Attorneys Emily Taylor sits down with real estate professional and longtime Second Amendment supporter Germaine “Gigi” Baur to talk about a profession most people don’t think of as dangerous: real estate.

What risks do Realtors face when meeting strangers, entering vacant homes, and conducting showings after dark? What can real estate professionals do to improve their situational awareness? And if a Realtor is forced to defend herself inside a home she’s showing, does the Castle Doctrine apply?

September is Realtor Safety Month, and Gigi shares what she has learned from years in the real estate industry, including her top safety tips for agents working alone, conducting night showings, and entering unfamiliar properties.

Emily and Gigi discuss:

• Why real estate can be a surprisingly dangerous profession• Situational awareness during property showings• Gigi’s system for making sure others always know where she is• The added risks of vacant homes and nighttime showings• Firearm and self-defense education for real estate professionals• Why simply being inside a house does NOT necessarily make it “your castle”• Castle Doctrine considerations for Realtors• Trespass and unexpected occupants• Gigi’s top three safety tips for agents• Why training before an emergency matters

Gigi also discusses Coastal Dreams Realty Group and her efforts to bring more practical safety and firearms education to professionals throughout the real estate industry.
