I was able to afford my current household because the neighborhood is a bit questionable… I live walking distance from a certainly charming & affluent area.
- My street includes many abandoned homes & some that are not unquestionably well cared for.
I am hoping that the growth of the community eventually reaches my neighborhood & significantly raises house values, but however, at the present time, I feel a bit unsafe in the house, and arriving household after dark is unsettling. I frequently hear sirens nearby. I’ve had some concerns with people loitering in my driveways, however some of my neighbors have dealt with theft & vandalism. I considered getting a dog, but I work unquestionably long hours. I didn’t like the idea of leaving the dog household alone so often, but when I began researching security systems, I realized that the better option was a whole household automation system; These systems are wireless & incorporate without causing disruption. I was able to customize features to suit my budget, lifestyle & priorities. There are a lot of possibilities to increase energy savings by automating temperature control, lighting & water usage. The automation system simplifies service by providing reminders to schedule service for the furnace, cooling system, water heater, dryer & other appliances. I focused mainly on elevating the safety & security of the home. I have installed surveillance cameras & motion-activated lights around the perimeter of the property. The automation system includes sensors for glass breakage, smoke, moisture & intrusion by way of the exterior doors. I am able to control the automated door locks through an app on my cellphone. I can watch real time video from virtually anywhere I happen to be. If there is a break-in, an alarm sounds & the local authorities are dispatched.
