REALTOR Safety Report 2011
September marks the National Association of Realtors' Realtor Safety month and the industry is currently introspective about the topic, sharing tips and tricks of the trade.
While we find it important to prevent crime against real estate professionals, we believe preparation is the best way to fine tune your gift of instinct. For the first annual Realtor Safety Report, we have teamed up with Moby and SAFE to investigate the rise in violence against real estate professionals.
Our industry has lost some amazing people this year, and countless others have been assaulted, and in conversation with leadership at Moby, we all felt that the actual crimes are not being analyzed in depth, rather associations are limited to sharing tips on heightening Realtor awareness.

Founded by John Farhat in 1970, and now managed by his son Abraham (Abie) Farhat, Green Acres is a family-owned business – and a family-operated business, too.

Green Acres is a true hunter's and sportsman's store – and each staff member is an avid sportman (and sportswoman). Each transaction is also guided by one of our professionals, who can back up their knowledge with actual hands-on experience in the field. The company prides itself on customer satisfaction, serving clients in Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas.
