When
conducting
an
open
house,
there
are
many
problems
that
can
arise
for
the
vendor,
prospective
buyers
and
the
agent.
Below,
identify
one
(1)
risk
that
may
affect
the
vendors
and
propose
a
control
measure
to
prevent
this
from
happening.
One
risk
that
may
affect
vendors
during
an
open
house
is
theft
of
personal
property.
During
an
open
house,
vendors
open
their
doors
to
the
public,
making
their
homes
and
personal
belongings
vulnerable
to
theft.
This
is
a
serious
concern
for
many
homeowners,
who may
have
expensive
jewelry,
electronics,
and
other
valuables
in
plain
sight.
To
prevent
this
from
happening,
control
measures
can
be
implemented.
First
would
be
to
request
that
all
prospective
buyers
provide
identification
before
entering
the
property,
and
keep
a
record
of
all
attendees.
By
requiring
identification
from
all
prospective
buyers
and
keeping
a
record
of
all
attendees,
vendors
can
ensure
that
any
incidents
of
theft
can
be
easily
traced.
This
can
provide
valuable
evidence
if
the
police
are
involved.
Next
would
be
to
ensure
that
all
valuable
items
are
removed
or
securely
locked
away.
By
removing
valuable
items
from
plain
sight
or
locking
them
away,
vendors
can
minimize
the
