If that's the case, I'm not sure you want to be involved with that either.If they were running a consulting business or something not requiring people to come to the property, I'd be totally OK with that (that's like working from home), but you will have children coming, the health department for food, and a lot of other people you may not want monitoring your property.

They need to usually hold on to all of them because umbrella needs to match up to liability amounts for your other policies so you are properly protected. they cant monitor that if they are with a diff company.When I came to the limits of using Geico/Farmers etc. with their limitations on the number of rentals I could hold, I sought out the top 100 independent insurance broker in my area and used them to get a quote.

Be very clear with them about what you can/cannot monitor with the cameras.You can also consider selling and investing in a safer community.

How many times have I looked at my monitor reading a cash-for-keys advocate's advice and wondered this exact thing?

We got our customer service department at our title company to build and maintain our list.. then my secretary would monitor the trustee services .. although Oregon went to Judicial and with sales every day instead of only on Friday like WA its pretty intense to follow all sales like we did in 5 counties.
