Thank you all for the info! 

Michael - you are spot on. Need to switch locks. Much appreciated.

I am wondering if any one has experience with the Halo Kwikset lock going offline repeatedly? We have one that always has issues. We have tried adding a Wi-Fi extender, called tech support, done all their recommendations and it still goes offline. We even replaced the whole lock unit. Have you had this experience? Did you find a solution? Should I scrap this brand and go with something else? 

Thank you.

I am a rookie investor with 3 doors and a full time W-2 job. I have some down time and am looking for recommendations on educational programs. Would it be beneficial for me to become a licensed agent in my state? Is there some sort of financing certificate that would be value added? An online course on construction? Etc? 

I am already reading every real estate investment book I can get my hands on and listening to podcasts. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
