Honeywell makes the best thermostats in my opinion and I believe somewhere around their 5000 series and up that feature is availible, but I like where your mind is at and it sounds like a viable option to me if you don't want to spend the money on the heat pump.

The best program for those seeking checkbook control and maximum flexibility is the solo K in my opinion.

I don't believe I should have to mask my opinions for fear of tenant dissatisfaction... but the customer is always right?

That certainly seems unreasonable to me.I generally like to think about it from this perspective -- the money/risk is worth about 50% and the time/effort is worth about 50% (not everyone agrees with this, btw, but this is my opinion).

It was free using "neighborhoodlink.com"One young couple with an eye on a house in the neighborhood found me through the website and contacted me for an opinion.

List price means nothing when calculating an offer, in my personal opinion.

If he will take less than that its pretty simple.If you gave a little bit more information regarding the lease risk, it might help some more opinions.

I can tell you who (in my opinion only) those are if you want.

Opinions would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Josh
