This is all assuming the buyers found a real health issue and not a made up bargaining chip.

We have thought about going to a digital key pad but are not sure about batteries dying and the fact we would still need to catalog all the keys to these pads.There are so many factors I am hoping to gain helpful insight from some of you who may have already solved this issue.Thanks!

in particular regulations that in effect result in not being able to get bad tenants out of your unit for lease violations (except as related to health and safety), non-payment, etc. 

The other guest was a long term stay and I had to replace batteries in the door lock.

I don't see any reason why the Landlord should be responsible for health practices of their tenants, but you need to decide for yourself how you want to operate your business.Check out Stessa.

This is creating a lot of opportunity for us by putting skilled workers into the labor force who otherwise would have never left their cushy state jobs.As for other perks....We aren't at the level of being able to offer health insurance unfortunately.   

You also have to research the health of the HOA as the special assessments can kill your cash flow pretty quickly.

If you're a high cancer risk, health insurance will cost you a premium.Don't strangle your cash flow with a home warranty and throw money at something you'll never get back.

There are no hardwired ones in the rooms (they're directly outside the rooms because that was the norm in 1998), only battery powered ones, so it would start beeping when the batteries were low and the students would just take the batteries out and never replace them. 

Do they have health issues or are they wanting to get out of rentals?
