Ya, i have 2 APBT, and a Glock .40, not really worried about that if it comes down to it, but sometimes my girl will be home alone, or if we were both gone and something happens i want some protection. Also the insurance discount is a must. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

If you have some skills working around the house I suggest installing your own setup, if you go with Brinks, ADT or any of the big names a lot of them tie you into 1-3 years contracts and on top of paying the $20-40/mo it was about $1000 for installation of the system for me, I have two doors and 8 windows that was for two keypads.

IF you have USAA as your credit union you can get ADT installed free and up to I think $200 in xtras. You do get locked into a 1-2 year plan though. I was paying ~25/month for monitoring. After the 1-2 years you don't have to pay for monitoring though and still have the alarm, just if the alarm goes off ADT isn't notified.

ya im not really worried about being tied up in a contract, but i really dont want to have to pay for install or deposit. ive got good credit so hopefully i can find one that ill be ok with. I mean, ill have this house for the next 30 years or so, unless i get a deal i cant refuse on it, so 1-2 years is no biggie..

I did have to sign a one year contract with ADT for my new build, but the install was free from the builder.
