What alarm system/monitoring do you use during the time period of rehab?

Thank you

Private security firm to patrol the property

I’ve had a recommendation (planning to use for any new vacancies/rehab projects I have):

SimpliSafe Burglar Alarm http://simplisafe.com/burglar-alarms

This was posted elsewhere, which I paraphrase:

LaserShield was recommended, which looked almost like what I needed so I kept searching. Finally I stumbled upon the SimpliSafe Burglar Alarm.

FIRST and foremost it is no-contract monitoring with activity reports! I get a message whenever anyone arms/disarms and of course sets off the alarm. IT IS COST EFFECTIVE! The entire system was about $300, and it was all motion sensors.

Next I took up a forum-poster’s advice and laid some PEX around the property to lead thieves to believe I don’t use copper, and put my (security) yard signs in plain view.

I have used something similar. It’s especially handy when you have to evict someone and you are worried they might want to get back in illegally!!! LOL

This seems something really good. Never used but will surely go through it.
