There are good selections of rugs that you can wash to place under the bed for warmth if that is your main concern.

I've had clients buy a SimpliSafe security system and send it to the PM to set up for the property as well as a mobile wifi to make sure it's connected to the internet and notify the police.

I am concerned about parking and how that would work parking more vehicles along the street.
