Low Voltage Wiring and Automation

I'm trying to find a target client after opening a home integration and audio video company.

I've been looking at a couple of flips in the area and noticed that no one is really wiring for security cameras, access control, theater rooms, home security, audio/video distribution, shades,lighting, home automation and integration.

I would imagine adding these features to a home would increase sale value am I wrong?

Yeah, I'm probably not qualified to answer this.

I don't believe these upgrades would offer enough bang for the buck to a flipper.  They may make a property more desirable but not more profitable.

Your target market, I think, would be higher end home owners.

Of course, marketing to flippers isn't necessarily bad but probably wouldn't fit in the 80/20 rule.
