I’m a big fan of Aqara but they don’t have outdoor camera yet. There is a doorbell coming sometime this year. Eve makes a good spotlight camera.

I also installed a blink system at my moms house and it has been pretty solid, although I fear that it’s probably the most easily defeated system. (Can just grab cameras if they in reach, not very securely mounted)

I totally understand in the current climate of things taking a few weeks to get things scheduled and figured out, but we discussed this at thanksgiving that he didnt have heat for a few weeks then, now its almost 2 months!
He has his own space heater, but the rental company has not provided a time range for repair, or even offered up other solutions.

Unfortunately, Hes the corner apartment, and also next to the entry way so he is surrounded by cold on 3 sides. We are working things out with family on who can house him, but he has a disability preventing him from doing stairs, so things are not easy.
There is no legally defined reimbursement for these kinds of things, but some landlords will choose to do something extra. I doubt his will unfortanetly.

All,
Thank you for the overwhelming support and suggestions.
This morning I have taken the following actions:

- Called the rental management office and left a message.
- Called the AGHD and left a message
- Called the elderly neglict line and entered a report.
- I also called the nearest HUD office and left a message.

I am working with other family members to work out arrangements for somewhere else for him to stay until this is fixed. We have provided him with a space heater earlier this month, but it can only heat so much unfortunately.
