I’m referring to an employee who is supposed to be performing labour work.I’m sick of paying employees who I know are jacking off half the time.I’m definitely going to be installing security cameras into ALL remodels I do from now on.

Not only do I like using the phone camera for expense tracking, its also because my tenants all prefer a mobile app rather than desktop for chat and rent payments.

Mine can set door codes, message (or call) guests, schedule cleaners, adjust the thermostat, monitor my cameras, & call a plumber just as easily as a local PM can, for 1% of the costHire good cleaners, a solid handyman & befriend some helpful neighbors.

We are working on signage and security cameras but I'm pretty irritated we have to do so much for something so basic. 

Keep that cell phone camera in the holster like a gun.

This costs about $75 per month, or, if I can get one of the tenants to allow me to set up my "Automation Hub" (I use Smartthings HUB in my setup), I will give the tenant $25 per month towards their bill.There are many ways that Smart Devices can help, not only in the case of smoke detectors.I have motion detectors which turn on and off lights, cameras that record to the Internet, leak detectors that tell me if there are problems with my basement, particularly if one of my equipment like a Hot Water Heater or Hot Water boiler is leaking, etc.In fact, I normally buy properties in transitioning neighborhoods, capturing the appreciation as the neighborhood gets better.The Internet Cameras became very important in this situation for 2 reasons:1) I kept getting sanitation tickets for dirty sidewalks.

We’ve been thinking about buying a Matterport camera but are trying to determine if it’s worth the value.

Do your own line check by renting a sewer camera.

There are wires that stretch between each building for Duke Energy, Comcast, security cameras, etc.Last month a Rent-A-Center truck took out a bunch of my lines - I have the whole thing on video:https://youtu.be/BafD7fb5E-Mhttps://youtu.be/C0p-5q7MMiMTheir insurance company is refusing to pay the claim because they say my wires are not high enough and do not comply to NESC Guidelines.Does anybody know what NESC is, and as an apartment building owner is there some expectation of compliance?
