Why would you ever put signs in your yard, advertising what kind of alarm system you have? If I were to do this, I'd be sure to put signs in my yard from a company whose system I did not have. Why tip others off on which kind of system they need to know how to defeat?

I rode past the house today where we have an offer pending to buy it. I saw a few newspapers in the driveway, so I stopped to inspect further. There was a foreclosure notice on the front door and a few ADT signs in the yard. Does anyone think those signs are gonna deter someone whose interest was piqued by the foreclosure notice? Now I'm kinda worried that the house is not being maintained since we first saw it.

BTW, those commercials are just the most insulting thing to one's intelligence I've ever seen. Like anyone who's dumb enough to kick in a door when they know someone is home is gonna be scared off by the siren and then the homeowner is gonna run upstairs to grab the call from the award-winning monitoring center. Has this ever once happened in real life?

I think this is gonna be in my front yard when I buy this house.
