First Time Home Owners’ Guide to Home Security Systems
As first time home owners, moving into a new place and acquiring a new home security system means learning pains on two fronts
You’ve bought your first house and are excitedly moving in. You are now part of the first time home owners club! There are challenges ahead as you learn how to maintain your new home and deal with all the responsibilities that implies.
One of those challenges is protecting your new home. To meet that challenge, you need a home security system and, as a first time home owner, you may need a bit of help knowing what you need to meet that need.
You might feel like the best way to cover your inexperience in your new home on the security front is to buy an expensive, contract-laden, professionally-installed system, and companies will happily prey on your anxiety to sell you more than you need and lock you into a longterm contract at a high rate.
But you don’t need something like that. A simpler solution is available with a DIY home security system, one that you can assemble and plan out as you deign, at rates you will much prefer.
Starting with a simple, meet the basics DIY home security kit is the ideal way to settle into your new home.
After all, this house is new to you. You don’t know all of its nuances, all of the quirks that will become evident as you spends months and years within its walls. But neither will some stranger sent to assemble a system based on a boilerplate, one size meets all strategy.
A DIY home security kit will allow you to start small and meet the very basics of home protection. BlueAccess offers a beginner’s kit that includes a minimum number of cameras and sensors for basic home coverage, which is perfect for first time home owners.
As you learn the ins and outs of your new home, you may find other areas in your home you feel need extra protection or a layer of protection you didn’t have before. With BlueAccess, you can order additional components for those needs, sync them to your existing system and expand your network, without expensive installation fees or follow-up visits from prying strangers in corporate outfits.
Start simple. Get a home security panel, a camera or two, a motion sensor for at least the most likely location burglars will target, perhaps a video doorbell. You can add components to increase your house’s utility as a smart home as you go. Add more cameras as you desire. Another sensor or two. Or three. No one will tell you no (except maybe your credit card company if you start to really overdo it). Have at it.
You can stop early or keep going until your house is a virtual fortress. Only you know what will meet the needs of you and your home and give you peace of mind in your new home.
No matter what you decide, BlueAccess will be there to meet your requirements and help you make your home the well-protected, safe place to live you always wanted.
There’s no time better to get started than right away. Get to it.
