We inspect our units every 6 months, change smoke and carbon monoxide batteries and HVAC filters, and Thermostat batteries.

If you think the above strategy smoked your calculator, now figure that one out, make sure you have fresh batteries. :)I may also know what the odds are as to obtaining a DIL, most are willing to avoid foreclosure, most will walk with a small chunk of equity to walk.

We have been slightly less satisfied with their web solution (so called "sites" module).

Usually most people would replace a battery every 12 months but in reality most alarms tell you when they need a new battery by beeping- Personally I don't want to be notified if they leave for 3 days

@Sean Hurwitz I suggest another tool: ProperrtyRadar, founded by another Sean.My friend Sean O'Toole has brought us West Coast investors another indispensable feature that I only discovered this weekend, investment analysis module.

Mechanical keypad locks are available for your gate I would think, they are push button and do not need a battery. 

Some of the smartest guys I know still scribble rent payments on the manila folder the lease lives in.Podio is nice, I would like to develop a PM module for it.

Repairs needed at the time: battery for the smoke detector.

I little rush and a dead battery but looks decent.

....Let's just say, they've already called in enough service calls for problems that literally equated to changing the battery in the thermostat.....
