What if there were multiple leaks?

Early on in my investing journey I experienced a ton of water damage because of water leaks in places that often goes unnoticed under sinks, in utility closets etc.I was curious if anyone else here has considered any remote monitoring water leak systems?

This has become a best practice for all of our homes now regardless of their location.Same in Oregon 10 year and in bedrooms and hallways plus any room with any type of gas stove or firelace etc.

CPI measures general inflation for consumers for major individual expenses such as food, gas, shelter, and other basics.

Your shut off is normally at the gas meter or just inside the house for gas and water. 

For example:General-Filters (furnace, air conditioning, oven exhaust, refrigerator, and water)-Stove burner when the “eye” needs simple replacement-Batteries and remotes that service the premises-Fan and light pull strings-Smoke and carbon alarms testing and batteries-Ensuring appliances are properly plugged in, hooked up, and used-Removing dirt, debris, and lint in and from connection pipes (e.g. clothes dryer)-Tighten loose screws on all home functions (e.g. doors, hinges, handles, socket -Balancing off-balance appliances-Cable, internet, and phone jacks-Fire extinguishers-Systems operation (e.g. security, irrigation, HVAC)HVAC-Monthly A/C filter and drain line maintenance Electrical-Reset “tripped” GFI breakers-Light bulbs (throughout and at the end of the tenancy)-Blown fuses-Reset breakers in the outside and inside breaker boxes-Socket and plug outlet coversPlumbing-Unclog drains or toilets-Caulking around tubs and showers as needed-Gas pilot lighting-Leaky faucets and shower heads-Toilet flappers, handles, seats and seat lids, tank lid, and flush kit-Sink and tub stoppers-If septic tank present, use RID-X as directed on consumer box-Proper cleaning of garbage disposal-Loose faucets and sprayer heads and hoses-Faucet filters (i.e. aerator)-Open exterior plumbing clean out when necessary (e.g. sewage backup)Exterior-Routine lawn (and pool) maintenance-Adjusting sprinkler heads as necessary-On the last month of tenancy, tenant must perform required lawn maintenance no sooner than 2 days prior to vacate dateThere’s a lot to consider as a landlord.

You also save $15 per week on gas ($720 per year) plus the commute time which is probably worth thousands.

.- Monthly cash flow from day one- More properties that are fully separated metered -- gas, electric, hot water all metered for individual units- Significant increase in property management -- evictions, late rent not because somebody simply forgot to press "send," potential domestic issues, issues between tenants, etc.

My intuition tells me that if they were rehabbing a property in poor condition, they surely must have known that water was leaking into the basement.
