you wouldn't be required to perform KT.

in Texas anything attached stays so even lightbulbs but you can also exclude anything explicitly.

Sure, but you might just throw in cheap bulbs before you show it. Depends if you move out first.

If I ever sold this place, I would move out most of my ha and automation stuff first.

Even a generic hot cold thermostat is pretty cheap and easy to put in.

Would probably leave recessed touch screens though.

I believe one of the hosts on the Coder Radio podcast moved into a home with some home automation stuff (light, heating and locks), but wasn't informed about the configuration or how to operate it. He described it as moving into a haunted house.

This sounds incredibly fascinating. Do you have a link to the specific episode or a title?

I looked, but it's a while back. It was just after the show returned from a break, and it was part of the opening chit chat between the hosts, so not topic of the show.
