If a special use type place goes dark you tend to have to land the same type of tenant or expend extraordinary amounts of money to re-purpose.I pay about 50 bucks a month for a Mr.

If the device can be dual-managed, that could be confusing on who is supposed to do what, and you get into privacy gray areas with landlord/tenant laws.Hypothetically, you don't want to be liable for identify theft of a tenant because you failed to apply security patches or because you didn't train the tenant in how to manage the device.I do use smart smoke detectors in my home & rentals, but it's because they are less likely to have nuisance alarms.

I am installing:(4) Nest Hello Doorbells(4) Nest Protect Smoke alarms(4) Nest Thermostats E's(4) Nest × Yale LocksI will set them myself, as I've been using them in my home w/o issues for over 2 years.

In my STR I only have 3 smart switches one to turn on the garage and front door lights on at dusk and off at sunrise so the guests never arrive to a dark front entrance.

Just came out of dark time with bad tenants situation.

My house is brand new and has dark hard wood floors, white cabinetry, quartz counter tops, stainless steel, and pale grey paint throughout so I have no remodeling to do, "just" to furnish it.Can anyone talk about furnishing a new house to be used a vacation home (most of the time, for now).

I am seeking suggestions for how to prevent tenants from disabling smoke alarms. 

Smoke detectors etc.The fun stuff like lights, Alexa, etc is less useful as it’s best used if you had set it up yourself.

Told me that they would help with funding, then went dark.

Have you considered just changing MOS or go to the dark side via OSC or green to gold or even direct commissioning for the last 10 yrs?
