I live in southern NH so its a good 2.5 hours away, with the right people and processes in place its pretty easy to manage from afar.I have automated doorlocks, thermostats etc... so managing that stuff is easy.Good luck with finding a place.

The landlord just put the house up on the market and has informed me that they will be putting a lock box on the front door as well as will be showing it several time within the next few weeks alone on top of that a couple months ago I gave him my rent check on the 2nd beacuse the 1st was a holiday and the banks were not open he proceeded to hassle me and tell me that my rent check needed to be there before the first and am always afraid to do that simply because i feel he will cash it to soon he did that with my deposit cashed it 2 weeks before my lease started i guess that should have been a sign however i also was not told that in order to keep all rooms at a consistent temp of 65 I need to keep the thermostat at 75 please help  any way out or am I on the hook?

I like to update electrical fixtures,switches,plugs I always replace old thermostat's with a newer digital model. example, if the house has older cabinets and your budget wont allow for all new cabinets simply paint them white and put new hardware on them if you have paneling/drop ceilings remove them if your budget allows if not at least paint the paneling newer decorative (faux tin cieling look)drop ceiling tiles can add some appeal what you want to do depends on your budget and what you must do to sell the home. new homeowners usually like updated windows, paint, carpet, kitchen,bath again what you can do depends on the budget. is this flip/rehabb for low,middle or higher income family?

Sounds like it would have happened had you tested the system at time of inspection.I remember him turning on the  thermostat, but we definitely did not run the furnace long enough (5-10 minutes) to start hearing the sound.

I had a Nest Thermostat get stolen, which they conveniently replaced with a standard thermostat.

I'm pretty sure no tenant will care about rain gutters or fancy thermostats.

The bane of all landlords.I highly, HIGHLY recommend you take the thermostats out of the individual apartments.

I currently have a tenant that couldn't understand that if they put a space heater near the thermostat that will turn off the heat so after setting the thermostat to 78 and it not being able to heat because of space heaters they called the cops. 

A way to remotely control the thermostat or take away their access.

One is on the kitchen counter, one resting on the thermostat, one on the coffee table, and one on the end table by the sofa.
