I've come to learn from some recent threads that this lock may be against fire code.What I am trying to avoid is putting a "regular" deadbolt on the door (that can be locked from the inside) since this is a common area and guests/delivery personnel will need access to it periodically (no doorbells), and I don't want to have to issue a second key to each tenant (someone moves out, now deadbolt needs to be rekeyed and everyone gets a new key...PITA).My only two options as I see them:Double key deadbolt: against fire codeRegular deadbolt: allows door to be locked (problematic for the reasons above)Any ideas or suggestions?

Today we received a text from one of them stating that she will be planning on marrying an active duty military personnel and wanting to move to Virginia.  

It's possible the city really needs more 2 bedroom units and will work with you, rather than lose them by making you convert them back to 1 bedroom units.I had really good luck getting info out of city/county personnel when I was looking at properties to buy.  

Military personnel also look for a 'military clause' in places they rent.

Have you heard of new avenues that new personnel are directed to use?

I plan to purchase SFHs and MFHs that will appeal to the military personnel and transient workers.

It's really there for the peace of mind, I can always get in regardless of what car I am driving (rental key ring is in my car) or if police or fire or medical personnel needed to gain access, they can always get in--without bulldozing the door.     

Are you going to not rent to military personnel or other law enforcement personnel (which a very high percentage will have their service weapon(s) at home with them / their families)? 

You just need to make sure that you are making a return on your investment in those personnel. 

Sometimes good companies can go bad for various reasons (changes in the market or personnel), so it's really important to stay tuned in to our website to see if there are any changes to markets or turnkey providers we've recommended.I say this because in the past I've heard people bought from companies we once approved but then stopped using because the quality of their services started to suffer.
