Is Self-Monitoring Enough?

For most people, yes. Here's the honest breakdown:

Professional monitoring means a call center dispatches police/fire when an alarm triggers
Average police response time: 7-10 minutes — burglars are in and out in 2-3 minutes
Self-monitoring with instant push notifications lets you call 911 directly
The main value of pro monitoring is insurance discounts (5-20% off homeowner's insurance)
