We have rented out our house for 4-5 years. We have a ‘coat’ closet in our house; we got a ‘key’ lock for it and store some of our pantry food and cleaning supplies and paper products. My husband put 3-4 shelves which worked very good. we store heavy things in plastic containers on floor.
Another couple, bought a storage thingy and put a padlock on it and stored it in their garage with no problem.
We also got a new NEST thermostat installed and I can use my IPhone anywhere to turn up/down temperature. The nest is a little tricky but I’ve gotten use to it. (On our contract, with renters, we pay $150 for electric; if they go over that amount, they pay. We usually deduct it from security deposit.)
