We go above and beyond when it comes to protection.. starting with insurance coverage, sings in the listing and in the property that there is no guard on duty (as silly as that sounds), putting extra locking device high enough so youngsters can't reach, an alarm/beep system to alert them that door opens for those with small children (or elderly) so they cannot wander out in the backyard with no one noticing and risk drowning.

Is there an alarm system?

I would talk first to an electrician as many do fire alarm and life safety.

I'd hate for a temporary dip in the quality of the tenant pool to be giving my landlord "spidey sense" false alarms on account of taking an extra month or two to fill a unit.

I'm in Kansas City so I can't say for sure but I would highly doubt they'd raise any alarm bells.

This is a HUGE Alarm. 

I had discovered then the broken equipment that he claimed was damaged by a thief, yet not stolen and still the lender had not came to conduct his inspection.

Over your alarm suggestions here.

That should set off alarm bells.

It can be frustrating especially when they pick their own inspector and they are totally clueless, raising alarms over non-issues.
