landlord controlled thermostats

Hi all
I was wondering about your experiences with controlled thermostats -- there seems to be so many choices -- ones that are actually hard set, like 71 degrees or 73, then units that are both programmable or not but have "set points," etc. I'd like to have them be programmable so that I can set them at a MAX like 72 degrees, but also be able to have them go down a few degrees at night -- any thoughts? this article has alot of info but I'd like to hear from real landlords

It's very easy! Simply don't buy a building if it has owner paid heat or buy the building so cheap that you can convert it.

There is nothing magical about larger buildings. If you can't make money with them, DON'T BUY THEM!!!
