Most Common Home Theft Items

If you have ever had anything stolen, you know how much of a hassle it is to have to deal with the repercussions of someone else’s selfishness. Although Utah is considered to be a safe and low-key state, theft is the most common crime committed. Utah homeowners often take the safety of their neighborhoods for granted and end up spending hundreds of dollars on home and property damage. Knowing what the most common items thieves are looking for will better help you protect your home and keep it safe.

Electronics

This can be a variety of items like; laptops, computers, TVs, PlayStation consoles, Xboxes and cell phones. If you keep any of these near your windows, you may want to rearrange your furniture to keep them far away from arms reach. Burglars can easily smash the window of your home with a rock and steal property that is close to a window, that way they never have to step foot in your home.

Jewelry

Jewelry is so easy to be sold off now days without a trace of anyone who sold it. Unlike cell phones and other electronics, jewelry does not have a GPS or tracking device so it can be pawned off at any local Utah pawnshop or sold online. Keep expensive jewelry locked away in a safe and not out in the open where it is visible to see.

Cash

Just like jewelry, there is no trace or way to prove it is yours. Cash can be easily stuffed into burglar’s pockets and easy to move around. Burglars are usually looking for cash, the reason they steal possessions is to sell them in return for money. Having a wad of cash out in the open is pretty much welcoming someone to come and take it.

Power tools

Some high-end power tools can be expensive and so the demand to own them is high. Many Utah homeowners keep tools stored in their garages or sheds and when those are kept wide open or unlocked, they are and easy target for someone to get their hands on. Keep your doors locked at closed at all hours of the day.
