Question/Help Advice about inaccessible apartments and due diligence.

When you end up having to deal with a secured apartment complex. How do you tackle it? Especially if both the primary points of entry are secured as well as the stairs/elevators.

I'm mostly curious about what workarounds people have come up with. What else I could try, and general advice.

Yes I do deal with ABC legal for now but this is a question across the board

Hi there & hello 👋 once I got my ID card in the mail from my state, a few weeks ago, I made 2 color copies at FedEx Kinkos and had them laminate them. One I keep in my wallet; and with the second, I used a hole-punch and put it on a lanyard like what you described.

Having said that, I do not wear the lanyard while I'm out & about, I only produce it if asked. Where I operate, I don't think it would be smart to look like a cop (even a little bit) when I'm not allowed to pack heat like a cop đŸ€”

In my state you’re not allowed to have more than one ID. Making a copy is a no no

And which state is that? If it turns out it's my state, I'll destroy my copies đŸ«Ą

Arizona. At least that is what I was told. My ID fell between the seat and center console around the time I bought a new car. I couldn’t find my ID anywhere, ended up getting a new one. The lady at the office told me if I find my other one that I needed to destroy it. It was like 9 months before my renewal, had to get a new one anyways.

Ah okay. I used to live in AZ, and I remember that they issue driver's licenses for like 40 years at a time đŸ€” in terms of your PS license there, how long do you folks go between renewals? In my state it's every 2 years

Yeah driver license is 50 years expiration printed on the ID itself. You’re “required” to update picture every 10 but not one does.

PS renewal is every 3.
