Professional monitoring: We recommend professional monitoring with every home security system.The plus is that contracts can mean no big upfront costs for equipment. Most contracts come with steep termination fees (up to 100% of the remaining contract) if you cancel early. Long-term contracts: Some alarm companies require contracts that can last anywhere from 36 to 60 months.These fees can depend on the size of your system and whether or not you choose professional installation. Fees: You may be charged fees for installation or activation.The good news is you can choose the equipment that works best for you-multiple security cameras or none at all? Just the basics (base station, motion detector, window sensor) or the latest and greatest security and smart home innovations? Equipment costs: Most DIY home security systems require you to buy all of your equipment upfront, which can cost between $200 and $1,000 or more.Things that can impact your overall cost: A close second is figuring out if it’s worth your money. Example savings based on example home insurance premium of $1500 and at least 6.7% discount for alarm professional monitoring.The most important question to ask with any home alarm system you’re considering is how well it will protect your home, belongings, and loved ones.
