Also we just put a Amazon basic lockbox down low adjacent to the door with a spare inside.we also have a back up to the back to lock box hidden if someone should forget to replace the key when they leave or loose it from the original back up lock box. 

Agreed re Scottsdale potential especially around Old Town to North Scottsdale (location of my other property) and I would be able to get a bigger space (LA and NY is a studio or 1bd) - I'll make a separate trip but appreciative to hear insights on the current market and what you all would do!
