Home Security System - Bill wifi into rent or let tenant handle?
Hey BP! So i am in a situation where i would like to have security system in my house. 90% of the systems require wifi to work properly but Simplisafe works on cellular, but at times it is finicky. I transfer the ownership of the security system to each new tenant after they move in and take ownership back after they move out. This ensure continuous protection/monitoring of the house. However, the video camera's with simplisafe only work with Wifi and I have always requested my tenants to set up their own wifi.
Here is what i am thinking. Should I just have wifi set up and bill it into the rent? That way my continuous monitoring after a new tenant vacates will also include video recording and doorbell camera possibilities?
Would like to hear some opinions on this
