But several techs had problems getting the International data codes etc functioning!!!

The more people someone is willing to give you the phone numbers of, the more likely it is that they're a functional member of society -- and vice versa.

Theres much less chance of this scenario if the Plumber goes a "change out " of a fixture4 No plumber worth his salt will do a "Band Aid " repair or restoration.Personally if a client wants me to do a half assed or Mickey Mouse repair job that is unsafe or with impede or jeopardize the integrity or soundness of the house,,,I will try and explain the need another way and try and sell the work again,,,if the guy wont listen to me and take my good advice I will walk,,,"sorry we didnt have a meeting of the minds Sir,,,please fell free to get another opinion,,,"5 Fixtures and plumbing materials installed in tract housing were better than nothing ,,but not much better,,,its time to change that old stuff out ,,lets face it.Other thing is,,,todays fixtures are much better in quality and function,,,case in point ,,,the new Pressure Balancing Shower Valves from firms like Moen,Symmons and Groehe,,,,grandma and little kids wont get scalded by hot water in the shower anymore6 The Swiss have a saying "Buy the best and you buy it once" or something like that,,,,,,same goes for plumbing7 If your Plumber has the same damn fixture installed in his own house,,,whatever the Hell it is ,you know damn well its good,,,hes seen it all,,,,,,and quess what busy plumber dont have time to work on their own damn plumbing,,,thats the last thing in world they wanna do8 Stay away from the "1/2 Plastic Junk" Faucets they sell in the Home Centers,,,,I wouldnt put those crummy faucets in my grand daughters "dollhouse"/Nor would I install one in my worst enemies house.They have integral leaks from the factory and they slip fit plastic fittings on the water supply tubing blow apart under pressure.Stay away pilgrims.Bad idea,,,,Hope this helps gang.Happy New YearDD in Los Angeles

That is why items are getting cheaper (houses, so many built when money was easy, debt was cheap, now it is time to pay the bills, prices slump due to demand deflation) while others are getting more expensive (food, gas, etc. but I think those are all a function of oils price...)

I think that a better search function when searching for potential network contents could go a long way in solving this.

My contractor is telling me the door is functional and it does not need to be repaired at this time.  

Ok, I was trying to look at August that way, but I didn't find anything on check-in or check-out type functionality. 

Our website is functionally non-existent and - save for Facebook and Nextdoor.com, we have no other online presence.

Unfortunately, there was still one in inventory, it was just sitting in the shopping cart that was abandoned down on isle 5.I developed software to deal with these abandoned carts and it had some other functionality that we don't need to get into.

Buildium is $45 up to 20 units.I am going to need to purchase one and I only need a small part of the functionality.
