2018 Residential Security Market Report: Home Monitoring Fees, DIY on Upswing

As has been the case for the past five years, Security Sales & Integration and Parks Associates have once again collaborated on the annual Residential Security Dealer Survey (a.k.a. Residential Market Report).

Now in its sixth year, the 2018 survey was fielded in August and September, and lends key insights into the leading trends, opportunities and challenges. A few more than 200 security dealers participated in the survey. Not all dealers respond to all questions, so question base numbers and margins of error percentages vary.

From the article "2018 Residential Security Market Report: Home Monitoring Fees, DIY on Upswing" by Tricia Parks and Scott Goldfine.
