Properties by Watson Has Never Directly Used Equifax

For all applicants who have gone through our tenant screening process, we have used TransUnion. We have never used Equifax, not for background research. However, there is a strong change that they have customer data on all Americans with Social Security numbers. Therefore, it is highly recommended that you check and sign up or "free" credit monitoring from Equifax. Please read more from CNET news service here at their article "Here's Your Guide to Surviving the Equifax Data Breach."

You may do that here at this site just set up from Equifax https://www.equifaxsecurity2017.com/

Affordable Home Security

If you have wondered about how to find a simple internet connected camera without the burdensome monthly service fees, try this one on sale now at Amazon. After you add a micro SD card (32 gb recommended), you can record the video internally and incur no fee for continual access to play back and see any motion triggers, or just watch your pets live. The cameras connect to your wifi and require a normal power outlet. They need to be protected from the weather. But, this is hard to beat when compared to expensive options like the Nest Cam ($200) and their continual $10/month fee just to see your own video. This Yi 720p camera is on sale now for $29 with the discount code. (See pic for details.) If you miss this opportunity, you can probably find it again in another 3 months. [P.S. read the reviews and judge for yourself, I believe most of the negativity is misplaced and misunderstanding. Still 4.5 out of 5 stars.]

"Flushable" Wet Tissues Steal Your Money

Wet tissues are not "flushable" despite the advertising. Each year the city of New York spends $3.6 million dollars on plumbing problems directly caused by flushed wipes alone. Do not believe the hype, never flush that wipe!

Unfortunately, tenants will be charged the emergency plumbing fee for clearing wipes from sewer pipes. For the Abilene area, the average fee is around $200. Thank you for never flushing that wipe.

Garden Challenge from Seattle's Own Mavis Butterfield

Mavis Butterfield is blessed to live in the Pacific Northwest where they actually get rain. However, that does not mean that you cannot benefit from her wisdom to try and feed her family on $100 a month. She does a great job of finding some sales and deal, like these wonderful Amazon Kindle books for $1.99 (The Edible Garden). I even found a companion book for free. Now you can't beat that! You're welcome.

If You Have a Good Design, Just Make It Durable.

Garage Door Openers Need Lubrication to Serve You Well

The Chamberlain Group used to be the manufacturer for brands like Sears/Craftsman. Now they use the same design 15 years later for their own branded items. Exactly the same. So if you have an old garage door opener, save it for parts to fix a new Chamberlain.
