the previous owners through some time this year. We also get a nice discount on our homeowners insurance for having a security system.
I definitely don't want the monthly bill, which is why I want to do a do it yourself setup. Cameras plus door sensors and an app to tie it all together and ability to contact police if needed shouldn't be a monthly bill type of thing.
The options I've found are Nest Cam (but there isn't any actual security features linked with it yet), Canary and Piper (but they are weak on integration with nest or ITTT type apps) and a couple other similar systems. Definitely not gonna do something with a monthly cost like ADT or Xfinity or Protection One.
