I felt it impartive to have a cohost bc if I would have communicated with guests i would have driven them away bc of long term landlord experience and what I require from long term possible tenants.More things I have learned: Have surveillance equipment outside of your property (this can affect your listing bookings) .

@Jose Corbera You can spend a little time on Google and see things about a company bankruptcy, hidden camera investigations, etc.  

Now the plumbing backed up so I had a plumber run a camera and he is telling me all the cast iron plumbing is no good under the slab so will need to do major work to get the plumbing working again but don't know what im suppose to do with the tenants for the week or two while we fix plumbing issues and insurance will not cover any expenses so is there anything I can do moving forward that will accommodate for the large expenses?  

Luckily my neighbor has video cameras and sent me the video. 

If you can install them place cameras.

How to automate:-Gate access with internet so you can control from your phone-Camera system for security again with internet you can access and control from your phone-Web presence with website that allows for direct booking of unit on the website-Call service that can field phone calls and rent units via phone-You need a part-time employee (we used a college kid) that will go through every week.

I might go one step further and get a security system with cameras installed.

The building lacks CCTV cameras and we don't have a doorman.

Hi All,Any of you put security cameras when doing a flip job?  

You might as well go out in the woods with a camera and look for Bigfoot.
