Expensive way is to buy simplisalfe, and install it and pay the 15 dollars a month for monitoring, will run you about 400 bucks.

Also we are installing a security cameras this week.

Please don't try to DIY the paperwork. 

After going through the purchase of a different duplex last year, the inspector didn't realize the heating system was installed incorrectly and two bedrooms weren't getting heat at all. $1000 dollars later, this is something he should have noticed.

If they know the landlord / tenant laws in PA they will surely drag this process out for a few months... and once they appeal to Common Pleas court your best to hire an attorney... this 'aint DIY court anymore (and that's where the charges begin to pile up).Wile you might "win the battle" by getting your tenant out sooner, be prepared to spend some time & money getting the place ready for your next tenant.

Thanks for the replies, I have actually been in the remodel business for the past couple of years do everything from hardwood floor installation/ refinishing to interior trim and everything in between.

@Maugno M.I just installed a colored metal roof, 40 year 'warranty'.

I will be closing on a four-plex tomorrow that currently has old electric wall heaters installed in each apartment.

Thanks to BP, my son and I decided to install Allure flooring, new faucets, and other cosmetic updates.

As previously noted, compliance engagements are usually flat rate and agreed upon before work commences.I think what needs to be understood with a DIY tax prep mentality is that you don't know what you don't know....Suppose your engine blew up.
