How much for a good home security system?

Sunday, February 24th, 2008
Mr SmoothHead asked:


What do I need for a basic home security system.

I don’t want anything elaborate as I live in a “safe” area.

I want something like a remote operated button that my elderly mom can push in an event someone breaks in. A loud alarm that will go off both inside and outside to “scare” any robbers and alert her neighbors.

Confused asked:


It makes sense that having a home security system adds value to your home. Is there a certain criteriea used to estimate a percentage that it does increase with that system?
