most of the negatives are lessened, but there are still some:

Some providers will not want to go to a client's home because of risks that go along with that.

Also, unless you are very confident about the provider, you open yourself up to them ripping you off or stalking you or even sending a "boyfriend" over to deal with you should you have an unfortunate "misunderstanding".

If you are very careful about selecting a provider and keeping your relationships with them on a positive basis, you should be OK.

Being divorced I have had providers over to my house many times, but not on a first date.  It's a lot of fun to have the home court advantage.

Positve and Negatives...

I LOVE to visit people homes.  But there are risks both ways.

From the hosts viewpoint, unless you know who you are dealing with you are opening youself up to any number of problems, mainly theft, the risk of your SO coming home unexpectedly or nosy neighbors.

If you dig through the "humor" forum you can read my account of when a guys wife came home and I was trapped in the 2nd floor guest room of a mansion in RSB...  Giggle.

But for the most part it's always been a really great time for both parties.

If you do this though it's really important you research your provider.

In general most independent girls won't go to private homes alone for all the obvious reasons. If she does you should expect her to take various safety precautions.  If she brings a driver, you need to be prepared. If someone is sitting in a car for an hour your neighbors are liable to call the cops to check it out.

So if in doubt just save an extra $60 and enjoy a no-tel-motel rondevous.

Have fun, play safe.

letting them know who you really are and where you live?  LOL

I would never invite a provider to my home until meeting her at least one previous time at a hotel or other location.  And I think it would be a similar rule for most reputable providers.

without the slightest problem, I don't worry about it. Keep in mind that well reviewed providers making great money aren't likely to risk their reputations by pulling any shit on you unless you give them a damn good reason to. So don't, and you'll be fine. Single hobbyists have it made.

My advice would be to use hotel rooms. Please reference the link below for another post about this subject.

Not good idea for Providers

IMO . For simple fact that  I have been  video recorded without my permisson in a gents home .
Not saying that  every man does this but  they have the upper hand on the lady when  they tell you where they want you in the home, sittin, laying, etc.... I prefer to keep my location so i know there is nothing shifty going on  that i am  not aware of .
We all have to remember this is not a totally "honest' world we live in .
Both men & women are capable of doing video recording one another but  chances are ladies are not interested in recording men when they visit opposed to the lady coming over to his place .
It has not been too long ago I did visit someone in their home and  when I walked in  there was a shrine with my photos in one room and it did not make me feel very comfortable about being there .
Just my .02

world, probably not a good idea.  Many reasons outlined above least of which is attracting attention from nossy neighbors.  I just don't want a lady knowing where I live.  Bruno doesn't need to pay me a visit later on.  [disclaimer--no offense to Italians]

Better to meet in hotel for both's safety if its the 1st date

If you feel like to keep in touch with the provider, you can make next date at your home.
If you dont, you will be glad that you didnt bring her home.
if she is with some 'bf', you would be regret to bring her home.
I am not only saying that you have to be careful with providers, but also, if you dont have reference from other providers, most professional providers wont visit you at your home
So, have fun and stay safe-to both boys and girls!

I am very single and have my own townhouse.

I've invited several providers into my house.  As long as she is well reviewed there is not much of a risk.

One of the reasons I like outcall to my house is I can set the date for earlier in the evening 6:00 vs 7:00 because I can just go home take a shower put on some music and then she is there vs go home take a shower hope back on the motorcycle, get to the incall location.  

One provider actually talked to me about inviting her to my house and did I feel safe about that and I told her it was not like she was some unknown provider.  She had many reviews and was an active poster on the regional board.

One provider after arriving and meeting me sent her friend a quick text message so you can see the concerns of outcall to a house do go both ways.

Just a hint for both provider and hobbiest.  Dont asssume provider is wearing proper attire to come to your house.  I like outcalls to the house,, and normally do so with providers I have seen before so both are comfortable.  But on occasion, there has been some first timers there.  One came about lunch in her short short, and halter top and high heel fuck me shoes, got dropped off out front and walked up to the door. Nice lookiing blonde with long legs,, but not lunchtime attire.  Obviously not the Avon lady.  Hard to explain to neighbors.LOL  so be forewarned.

Hey thanks to everyone for the input. Every little bit helps in making a decision.
