Leases often include a section about device the responsibilitie

While you’re waiting for a straight answer about an unexpected security device, check your lease or purchase agreement and see if there’s a section on home security. Check to see if it mentions the security system, what will happen to it — and especially who is responsible or has to pay for its removal. Leases often include a section about security devices and the landlord’s responsibilities. You’ll want to know exactly what it says. If it’s a homeowner’s security system, it’s usually legal to install and control it, although most landlords prefer not to include security devices like home security cameras in their rental properties. Tenants have rights, including the right to privacy, so if the system seems intrusive, you can file a complaint or even consult an attorney about your options. At the very least, your landlord should tell you about the system and provide codes to arm and disarm it. If you’re a homebuyer, this is the time to decide whether to keep the system or remove it. If you’re not too far along in the buying process, you may be able to ask the seller to pay for the removal of the alarm system as part of the purchase contract. Otherwise, you should be able to disassemble most of the system with a screwdriver, though some panels may require wiring. Talk to your real estate agent for details.

After an impressive 2023 NFL season in which the team nearly won the Super Bowl, the San Francisco 49ers hope to come back strong in the 2024 season and win the sixth Vince Lombardi Trophy in franchise history. Despite the 49ers having one of the strongest lineups in the NFL on both sides of the field, San Francisco has been in a negative situation throughout the offseason due to ongoing contract talks with star receiver Brandon Aiyuk. Aiyuk was hoping for a lucrative long-term contract extension with the 49ers, but so far that hasn't happened, and negotiations went so badly that he asked the team for a trade, resulting in an endless stream of rumors about the 26-year-old's situation in the Bay Area.
