RemoteLock and Smart Locks
Hello,
My husband and I are currently househacking a six-bed, five-bath house. We are renting out the rooms individually on a month-by-month basis using Airbnb. We use the Kwikset 912 to lock the rooms, the 914 for the front door, and the 916 for the back doors. We just signed up for the RemoteLock software to connect all of our locks and generate codes. We already use Smart Things as our smart hub.
How do you guys program the locks and send the codes to tenants? We're looking to scale and possibly rent out the house short term in the summer, so I'd like everything to be as hands-off as possible. Would you guys recommend using RemoteLock or attempting to use the Kwikset apps? Or do you have any other app recommendations that would work?
Thank you,
Eve Velasquez
