You therefore need to be on alert for the "thermostat at 90 with the window's open" in January behaviour;7) Social dynamics become harder to ignore when you rent by the room as you are the common link/cause for the individuals sharing a house.  

We ended up choosing property ware because our programmer / Designer / tech guy/ business partner told us that property ware has an "open API" which means he can customize the program however he wants and can integrate it with what ever other software we might be using.  

HVAC guy said it would be cheaper/easier to just install another furnace and A/C to cover the lower level which was a little colder and no Proper A/C ductwork.The result is one heat/cool system,  a heat system and a cooling system. 3 thermostats total. 

On the utilities angle, water & sewer must remain in the name of the owner - on our SFRs, we use our Utilities Budget programme to bill back to the tenants.  

At 1pm it switches to 80 (they give you free programmable thermostats, another savings.).

The same day my property manager arrived to show the property to a potential renter (difficult to rent in January) to find the house “quite cold”.When she went to check the heat the thermostat had been ripped from the wall.

Z Wave thermostats, locks and the like can help automate the check-in and monitoring processes.Read up on this forum.

Specifically this situation involves a tenant that will turn down the thermostat to our buildings boiler, in the winter season if she feels that her unit is too warm.

Ignition switch failed, house temp had dropped to 38 when we disciovered it on our honeywell thermostat. 

Another option is to install heat tape and a thermostatic control.
