These guys are talking about electronic lock boxes where the REALTOR has there own key card.  

The appeal of this for me is I'm considering having my leases signed electronically as well, through DocuSign.  

Through the simple choice of making bi-weekly payments, as opposed to the default of monthly, we have cut 5-7 years off each amortization and reduced the amount of interest paid by thousands of dollars.Getting back on topic, we have used the carrot approach to convince tenants to move from cash to electronic payment (pay electronically and you save 5%), but have found the stick to be more effective in dissuading late rents.

Just a thing they do to try to weed out the older more expensive managers apparently.Luckily for her, the asst branch manager got pregnant and quit.

There is a common front door.Instead of putting a keyed lock on this, I'm thinking about putting an electronic touch pad lock.  

The township said they only read one electronic meter per house.  

Also by decorating nicely and providing new electronics and other perks, you can appeal to more people and you can ask for a higher rate and probably get better guests.

I co-own several large apartment buildings and want to stop accepting coin payments for laundry machines. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with card/electric payments for this?

Paynearme really isn't electronic on the tenant side, but it get direct deposited into my account.  

All electronics start out high and come down later.I was sitting at my parents house on Thanksgiving thinking that it would be nice to able to turn my heat down remotely and crank it back up before I headed home.In a higher end renovation, it might be worth it.
