Are home security systems expensive?
The prices of home security systems will vary depending on the type of system you choose and the type of monitoring that you choose as well. Newer homes often come already equipped with a home security system. All you will need to do is to pay a monthly fee to an alarm company, in order to monitor your alarm. If your home is not wired for security system, then you can expect to pay between 100 and $1000 not including the monthly fee for monitoring. Of course, motion detector sensors and surveillance cameras will be more costly.
