The real estate community witnessed yet another safety scare last week when a man held a real estate agent captive in Elk Grove , Calif. The agent was handcuffed and held at gunpoint by David Timothy Burnhart, 47, while showing an empty home model. Burnhart was arrested outside of his home on Friday. While the real estate agent was safely released, it’s important to remember that when it comes to showing spaces, safety should come first.
