Point Central has some solid home monitoring packages you should check out.

We're only in our third week of using the VA/Dialer setup, so I'll have to continue to monitor the data.

I don’t want to keep internet service on in a vacant unit just for the door lock and when a tenant moves in they change the WiFi anyway.I’d be interested in hearing about remote solutions that don’t need WiFi access.I also don’t want prospective tenants in my units unattended.

As long as you don't give up and keep exploring problems and solutions, you'll be just fine. 

At the individual consumer/investor and loan officer level, everyone is trying to run to DSCR as the solution to a problem. 

However, the solution is not always to run out and get new deals - it may be to re-evaluate your overhead and focus on more profitable deals.

Hi we are doing a gut remodel in north jersey, we are most of the construction since we general contractors, we have already gutted the house, the house used oil furnace, we have planned on replacing with gas furnace, and installing mini-spits, however now that everything is exposed do you guys recommend perhaps another solution. 

I don't need the system to do anything else, but I do want to be able to monitor it from my phone, 4.5 hours away.

Has anyone discovered a cost effective solution?
