.- Less wear: Because the panels are built in climate-controlled conditions, there is less chance of weather damage during construction which can lead to warping, etc.I've seen estimate that this type of build can also lead to savings of 10% or more in total construction costs.

Put up a camera even if its fake.If you lock the breaker boxes, then you will get a call to unlock it whenever a breaker trips (like when they plug in the hairdryer on the circuit where their microwave is already running).If they are going after the copper, locking the panels won't stop them; you can see holes get punched in walls in lots of places where the copper thieves have hit.

Our local utility requires the electric meter linked to the panels be in our name.We monitor both gross and net generation.

You probably won't be able to go to larger sub panels though.

I go by to assess the problem and leave, she texts (same day) me stating that another baseboard heater has wires sticking out of it and wood panels around the windows are a safety concern for he O_O..

Removing the inner door panel.

For that kinda discount I'd have removed that back panel, beat it with a brick and enjoyed my sweat equity savings!!

Last time I was there a few days ago she was crying hysterically in front of myself and my two electricians who were upgrading her electrical panel. 

You can add card/FOB access to all of them, and control amenity space access through remote keypads and or card/fob scanners if you buy the expansion panel.

For construction costs I’d factor 200,000 250,000.Things you need to check: Service size of water (might need think of a pressure booster), electrical service panel, spray foam entire home I would recommend closed cell spray foam, since this is higher r value and moisture barrier. how is the structure of the building?
