#Find best programmed maintenance company

[bag-chips]

The Security Breach sillies!! Been meaning to post them for a while so here :) Headcanons under Keep Reading!

- The most advanced of all the generations, the animatronics use complex AI learning making them the most lifelike and sentient robots even outside of Fazbear entertainment. Each has unique personalities that can be moulded and changed by outside factors.

- The designs are made to capitalise on 80s nostalgia, taking inspirations from fashion of the time and utilising a vaporwave aesthetic. To hark back to previous generations, the animatronics are designed to look as though they have a face plate. The mechanical parts are also mostly hidden by complex joints to give them a more lifelike appearance.

- The Daycare Attendant is actually the most primitive in terms of technical ability and design. Fazbear Entertainment were able to find some of Henry and William’s scrapped designs, which were changed very little for the final product. Originally designed for the theatre, a last minute change meant that the animatronic would be used for the daycare. Although its ability to change its appearance is a marvel, it being based on design plans from the 70s means that they are prone to damages, needing almost constant maintenance. Even so, the Daycare Attendant is one of the most popular animatronics amongst customers.

- Glamrock Chica is the smallest animatronics of this generation. Fazbear Entertainment learnt very little since the early days, and once again programmed her to consume actual food. Like her 1st Gen counterpart, she is prone to having rotten food, maggots and cockroaches inside her. In this AU, she has the Valley Girl accent.

- Monty Gator is considered the strongest of all the animatronics. He is also one of the most aggressive. This is because he was originally programmed to be a ‘sore loser’ in Monty Golf, however a bug in the complex AI learning morphed this into excessive anger issues. He can easily knock down heavy displays and claw his way through gates. He was originally designed to be the mascot for the golfing area, however after the disappearance of Bonnie he was reprogrammed to become the new member of the band. His golfing motif still persists in his outfit.

- Roxanne Wolf’s outfit is inspired by racing gear, with her also acting as the mascot for the short lived hairdressing service. She is fully capable of cutting and styling her. In all their wisdom, Fazbear Entertainment programmed her to have anxiety and confidence issues to make her more relatable to teenagers. This has backfired massively, with Roxy’s AI learning exacerbating these qualities.

- Glamrock Freddy successfully won over fans after years of mixed opinions on the company’s mascot. With him being the mascot of Fazzer Blast, he has an alien motif in his outfit. Programmed to be best friends with Bonnie, the AI learning has developed this bond into something more. He misses him greatly.

- Glamrock Bonnie was laid back, playful and sassy. He was decommissioned by Monty. However, Monty was taken over by Vanessa’s programming, as a test to see if said programming worked. Monty has no recollection of this. Parts of Bonnie were used to reconstruct Afton

So I've been thinking about my Gluncle Mike AU and had a thought. What if Michael used to remember but was later wiped and buried under the AI and code to the point he just couldn't find himself anymore in the mess?

Bonus points if it was Elizabeth who did it. Using the idea of her being Vanessa, using an alias to investigate like Michael used to, and getting infected by the virus. She could find out about Michael being back, and they could even have a touching reunion talking about bringing Evan and his son. Michael is so excited about being an uncle.

Then Elizabeth is forced to take that all away. Effectively erasing her brother after she just got him back. Seeing Freddy walking around and knowing somewhere in there is what used to be Michael. She hates how happy he always seems to see her, even if she knows it's just the programming. She can never let Evan find out about this.

The other animatronics would all be upset about the sudden change in Freddy. They just can't understand why the company did it! Freddy was amazing. He treated them all like family and the kids and parents all loved him. There was no reason to take away what made Freddy so… Freddy!

Before he would help Roxy with her makeup. Growing up with a little sister and then trying to cover up the fact he was a rotting corpse meant he had plenty of experience and personal tricks. Roxy always looked her best after Freddy did her makeup and she wouldn't let anyone else do it.

After they "fixed" him Freddy didn't know blush from eyeshadow anymore. No one else met her standards.

Cassie's dad also grew up sometimes having to deal with Michael's little sister being demanding and now had a daughter of his own did seem to find close. He had the "honor" of doing Roxy's makeup and always getting a "it'll have to be good enough."

Freddy understood Monty wasn't dangerous. Sure he was big, strong, and had a bit of a temper at times, but he never turned it on anyway. Freddy even tried to help him find healthier ways to let out that anger. Once the "real" Freddy was gone that all went out the window. Just like the table through the window of his room.

Freddy would always visit Eclipse. Letting them feel like more than just "the daycare attendant" even though he wasn't a member of the band and would talk to them about their day. When "something went wrong during maintenance" Freddy got to know Sun and Moon as their own people. It wasn't until Freddy was "gone" that Moon started to really deteriorate.

Freddy used to sneak leftovers from birthday parties for Chica in his stomach hatch. If she wanted to eat food then she was going to eat fresh. She deserved better than eating out of the trash.

Freddy always seemed nervous about Bonnie at first. Once he got to know Bonnie they were close friends. When Freddy came back… different Bonnie did his best to still be there for Freddy. It was something Freddy always appreciated and they were closer than ever.

Once Bonnie disappeared, Freddy could understand why the others looked at him how they did. Freddy doesn't know how he could stand having a walking-talking reminder his friend is gone.

Staving off a tide of violent urges as I process the various horrors I saw today. This job is becoming actually bad for my brain. Today I went to an apartment complex that I’ve already bitched about a few times, but today was my breaking point lol I was lead into the apartment by this Maintainance man, who promptly took off the second he knocked on the tenants door, they came to the door abs I couldn’t even process what I was seeing when the door swung open. One bedroom apartment, 5 people on the floor wrapped up in blankets and literal crack smoke in the air. A windowsill is stacked high with picked clean chicken bones? Roaches everywhere. as soon as I walked in one of the people in the apartment went up to this girl who was completely still on the couch and started violent shaking her screaming “WAKE UP HEY WAKE UP THERES PEOPLE HERE” and she was 110% unresponsive. The windows had been broken for about a year and just had a board put over them….on the inside. Here’s a fun fact: When you break a window and board it up from the inside, all of mother natures mighty feats of degradation of man made materials will ruin your sashes and window frame forever! At least that’s what happen when you leave busted windows up for a FUCKING YEAR WITH NOTHIN TO PROTECT THEM BOARDING THEM UP FROM THE INSIDE MAKES 0 SENSE

Just a week before when I went to measure the windows The aforementioned maintenance man insisted I measure these windows from the outside, because he “didn’t wana take thee boards down” so I was like “uh ok” I really didn’t see a problem at the time. So he very clearly didn’t want me to see the inside prior, for obvious reasons, so he had me do it from the outside so I’d show up and be blind sided. That was my working theory when this happened initially. Come to find out, my co-worker / best buddy already went and measured these 7 months ago and told them they were beyond repair and glass replacement wouldn’t even work at this point. So this guy Fucking knew what he was doing the entire time.

So when I got back to the shop and informed my boss of what happened she called and said she didn’t want to put her technicians in any danger so we wouldn’t be returning. This Fucking maintenance man told her that he was in there the whole time. Like I wish I took a picture of this mother fucker when I came outside of that actual nightmare, he was sitting on a picnic table smoking a cigarette, this guy bailed on me as fast as he could and went out for a lil smoke break while I tried by best to avoid any stray needles that may have found their way onto the carpet. Then tells my boss on the phone that he was in there with me lololololol sublime excellent wonderful amazing im this close to turning one of these mother fuckers into an example it’s not even funny.

Either way, my boss said she’s going to try to get permission from the big big bosses (we’re a small company owned by a multi-billion dollar company) and she said even if we do go back in the future we’re going to have ground rules that these maintenance blockheads have to follow the second they don’t were Fucking splitting.

Like I just can’t do this anymore, one of my clients at this job is a housing assistance program that provides housing for addicts and that’s like my main daily thing. And like I’m not looking down on anyone in that kind of position, I have addicts in my life and it’s terrible and sad, but I can’t help but not feel safe. Especially when the extent that the people who are supposed to be coordinating this Shit for me do is call me and warn me about the bad stuff lol I’m not accusing anyone of trying to steal my tools, but I’ve been told probably 10000 Fucking times by the same guy “not to leave any expensive tools around because the people in this unit have already stolen from several contractors” it’s like dude what the Fuck. I make $19 an hour I don’t get paid enough to fight off the most desperate people alive.

And this keeps happening every Fucking day because they’re putting me in charge of all the glazing jobs that the more senior glazer doesn’t want anymore lol so this is just my life for probably the next couple years. Trying not to get killed for the $10,000 worth of tools in my van or just the van in general. Like it’s really Fucking dumb. I’m sorry if I sound insensitive to the struggle of the people in these situations but I promise you anyone in my position would be incredibly frustrated and generally unhappy lol

Thanks for reading

Unlocking Savings and Sustainability: How Solar Panels Can Benefit Your Business in Delhi ? 🌞

In today's competitive business landscape, Delhi companies are constantly seeking ways to reduce operating costs and gain a competitive edge. One powerful solution is harnessing the clean and abundant power of the sun through solar panel installation.

Sustainable Savings:

Soaring electricity bills can significantly impact your bottom line. Solar panels offer a long-term solution by generating clean electricity on-site. This reduces your reliance on the grid, leading to substantial savings on your monthly electricity bills. Delhi, with its ample sunshine hours, is a prime location for maximizing the benefits of solar power.

Environmental Responsibility:

Consumers are increasingly making purchasing decisions based on a company's environmental practices. By installing solar panels for home or business, you demonstrate a commitment to sustainability and contribute to a cleaner Delhi. This not only reduces your company's carbon footprint but also enhances your brand image, attracting environmentally conscious customers and investors.

Government Incentives:

The Indian government actively promotes solar energy adoption by offering attractive incentives. This includes subsidies on solar panel installation in Delhi, accelerated depreciation benefits, and net metering programs. Net metering allows you to sell excess electricity generated by your solar panels back to the grid, further increasing your financial gains.

Increased Property Value:

Investing in solar panels adds value to your commercial property. Studies show buildings with solar systems tend to sell faster and at a higher price point compared to those without. This is because potential buyers recognize the long-term cost savings and environmental benefits associated with solar power.

Low Maintenance and Long Lifespan:

Modern solar panels are incredibly durable and require minimal maintenance. Routine cleaning and occasional inspections are all that's typically needed. Moreover, with a lifespan of 25 years or more, solar panels offer a reliable and long-term source of clean energy for your business.

Finding the Right Solar Partner:

Choosing the best solar panel company for your business needs is crucial. MITS Construction, a leader in Delhi's construction industry, offers comprehensive solar solutions. Our team of experienced professionals can guide you through the entire process, from initial consultation and system design to high-quality installation and after-sales support.

MITS Construction utilizes only top-tier solar panels from leading manufacturers, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. We provide customized solutions tailored to your specific energy requirements and roof space, maximizing your return on investment.

Benefits Beyond Cost Savings:

The benefits of solar panels extend beyond immediate cost savings. Solar power reduces your reliance on fossil fuels, lessening your company's environmental impact. This fosters a positive work environment and attracts employees who value sustainability. Additionally, solar panels showcase your commitment to innovation and responsible business practices, strengthening your brand image and customer loyalty.

Taking the First Step:

If you're a business owner in Delhi looking to unlock the many advantages of solar power, MITS Construction is here to help. Contact us today for a free consultation to discuss your specific needs and explore the potential of solar energy for your business.

January 2022 (left) vs. November 2023 (right)

Once Cancelled, Revisted:

The FNAF Performance Program AU

I started this AU back when Security Breach first got announced. Essentially, the company has human alternatives for each animatronic in case they need to go under maintenance. It was basically a no murder/human AU my little brain clutched with an iron grip.

After seeing the movie on premiere day, I decided to revisit this AU and revamp everyone's look!

While sketching everyone out, I came up with a new take the AU. Basically, what if instead of kids, it was the employees that went missing and possessed the animatronics? It takes place primarily in FNAF 1, but I may do the rest of the lineup down the road.

(Click MORE to see how they died)

TW:// depictions of murder & mutilation

FNAF 1:

Susan "Susie" Cooper - Chica the Chicken // Susie was killed by her boss after watching him bring a little girl into the backroom. Worried, she followed and found Mr. Afton just struggling to subdue the girl. Susie did her best to save her, but ended up taking the killing blow for the girl. Susie is cut into pieces in order to fit in the mascot of the character she so dearly portrayed. Her hands were the only pieces of her ever found. Rumors say that you can still hear her screams in the pizza place.

She protected a young girl named Cassidy.

Francis "Fritz" Kitts - Foxy the Pirate // Fritz was killed after he thought he saw Susie walking into the back room, weeks after she disappeared. Afton tried to subdue him as he got too close and found another kid, but was late. Fritz got the kid untied and began to run down the hall with them. He was stabbed in the leg and urged the kid to run. He eventually died after losing a lot of blood from being stabbed in the chest, legs, and arm as well as having his jaw broken. He was hidden in the new concrete rocks of the pirate cove set. His eye and right hand were found alongside his friend’s hands.

He saved a boy named Josh.

Jeremy O'Hara - Bonnie the Bunny // Jeremy didn’t go out without a fight. He was there when the place got shut down for investigation, immediately finding his boss acting shifty. He decided to follow him and claimed he needed to collect some personal belongings before leaving. Upon being discovered, Afton attempted to knock him out. The two fought for a while before Jeremy was ultimately killed by having his face and skull smashed in. His body was bent and broken before being placed in Bonnie’s suit until the police left.

He is survived by his little sister, Vanessa.

Gabriel Frasier - Freddy Fazbear // Gabriel was killed as fit of revenge against the Frazier-Emily family. He was taken just after one of his shifts. Hidden and locked in the Parts & Service garage for days, only surviving because he knew where to hide. He was eventually caught after he kicked a paint can upon his escape from the shadows. Afton used Gabriel’s body in an attempt to make a new kind of animatronic, fusing his body to the metal endo skeleton and placing him inside the titular bear. Unlike his coworkers, no pieces of him were ever found.

He is survived by his little brother, Evan.

Cassandra "Cassidy" Woods - Hostess/Employee // Cassidy is currently still considered missing as no one really knows what happened after she went to close one night. The opener came into an unlocked store and her stuff was still on the counter, ready to leave any minute, and her car was still in the parking lot. No signs of forced entry or foul play were seen. A thorough investigation was launched, but her case went cold. Cassie remains missing to this day.

5 Signs You May Need a Facility Management Partner

It takes a lot to manage a facility. Whether it’s building operations like cleaning, security, maintenance, and grounds management or compliance and safety, facilities management touches just about every part of the workplace. As a result, even the best FMs can feel stretched thin from time to time. If it’s unclear why there is a rising backlog of uncompleted maintenance tasks, or it feels like there’s no time to focus on more strategic initiatives, it might be worth partnering with a facility management provider. Here are five signs you may need a facility management partner.

1. Rising Costs

Constantly paying for ad hoc repairs can get costly. If you notice that repairs and servicing costs always seem to be on the rise, then it might be time to consider an FM partner. They will work with you to understand your entire operation and develop a custom solution that extends the lifespan of your equipment or building’s infrastructure. In turn, this leads to fewer repair costs and increased operational efficiency.

2. Frequent Disruptions

Whether they’re maintenance repairs or critical systems failure, constantly spending valuable time reacting to one situation or the other can lead to wasteful productivity. Partnering with an FM company allows you to bring in additional support and specialists as needed. This flexibility increases productivity and helps you deliver on a range of your organizational objectives.

3. Difficulty Tracking and Managing Assets

Spending time looking for assets or procuring new ones wastes valuable resources and stalls the resolution of problems in your facility. Then it’s only a matter of time before occupants become frustrated and workplace satisfaction declines, which leads to a decrease in productivity. Through effective staff management and the implementation of best practices and innovative technologies, an FM partner can help you easily keep tabs on not just your assets but your entire operation.

4. Low or No Budget For Technology

If you are finding that many of the facility management challenges you face could be minimized or resolved with enhanced or upgraded technology, then it’s a sign to partner with an FM provider. Forward-thinking FM companies have innovative technologies that cut through the clutter, reduce downtime, and eliminate needless frustration. In addition, they can help regulate compliance, analyze insights of project details and performance, track time and resources, and ensure a consistent level of service and quality.

5. Communication Gaps

When projects have tight deadlines and strict requirements, effective and efficient communication between managers and strategic partners is critical. If you’re finding communication gaps, an integrated, self-performing facilities management partner could be the perfect collaborator to help set you up for success. They can assist by developing smoother systems of communication between the technician, command center, and facilities managers to ensure a process that streamlines service, integrates teams, centralizes goals, and lays the framework for efficient and quality relationships.

Choosing the Right Partner

Partnering with a facility management provider ensures your organization is running at full optimization without day-to-day facility maintenance interruptions. From the reduction of costs to optimizing your facility management programs for increased efficiency, the right partner can provide the support you need to take your operations to the next level.

National Facilities Direct offers top-quality facility services derived from real-time communication, state-of-the-art analytics, data-driven decisions, and proprietary technologies. We develop customized all-inclusive maintenance programs, best-in-class connectivity, and an extensive in-house network of diverse professional licensed technicians that help us meet your complex, ever-changing needs.

Financial Security: Why You Should Secure Your Life Before Anything Else

Introduction

Insuring yourself is an important step in securing your financial future. Insurance provides the safety net of protection against potential losses, offering peace of mind and security to individuals and families. In the UAE, insurance plays a pivotal role in protecting people from unforeseen risks and ensuring that their loved ones are taken care of financially should something unexpected happen. Understanding what type of coverage you need for different life events can help you make smart decisions about which policy is best for your needs. From health insurance plans to motor vehicle coverage and more, having the right insurance can give you greater financial security both now and into the future.

Benefits of Insuring Yourself in UAE

One of the biggest benefits of insuring yourself in the UAE is protection against financial loss. Having a policy in place will ensure that any unexpected expenses or losses are covered, helping to reduce stress and worry. Insurance policies can provide coverage for both physical and financial risks, allowing you to be better prepared for whatever life throws at you. This type of protection provides peace of mind knowing that your family’s financial future is secure should something happen to you or your loved ones.

Some insurers offer discounts on certain services such as home maintenance if they know you have an active policy with them — this could add up to significant savings over time! Finally, having an insurance policy in place gives people greater security when it comes to their finances since they know there’s a safety net protecting them from potential losses.

How to Compare Insurance Wisely in UAE

When it comes to insurance policies in the UAE, there are a variety of coverage options available. It is important to understand what type of policy you need and how it will protect you from potential losses. Before making any decisions, be sure to research the different types of coverage and compare quotes from multiple insurers. This will help ensure that you get the best deal for your needs and budget.

Another factor when comparing insurance policies is looking for discounts or rewards programs that may be offered by certain providers. Many insurers offer reduced premiums or special benefits if customers have an active policy with them. Additionally, some companies provide loyalty programs which offer additional perks such as free medical check-ups or cash vouchers if customers remain loyal for a certain period of time.

Finally, researching customer reviews can give insight into an insurer’s reliability and services provided — this information could potentially save money in the long run should something unexpected arise later down the line! Taking all these factors into consideration will help ensure that you make an informed decision when choosing insurance in the UAE.

Public school funding does not pay for extracurriculars. Public school funding does not pay for sports outside of classes open to all students. Public school funding does not pay for any equipment used solely by an extracurricular sports team. Public school funding does not pay for any coaching bonuses beyond the additional salary for increased student contact hours which all extracurricular sponsors should receive. Public school funding does not pay for football programs, and no amount of being angry that a sport is popular is going to make that not true.

Public school funding comes mainly from property taxes. If you live in a county where most people rent rather than own their home, the people voting on what the property tax rate and school funding should be are going to be mostly the landlords whose best interest is to keep property taxes low to maximize their profits. The landlords and land owners are probably on the county committees and boards. Their kids and grandkids go to private school, so the funding of the public schools doesn't matter.

Many states have legislation that says that the state is supposed to make up for up to a certain percentage (85% in GA last I knew) of a school's operating costs if the local government can't fund it. However, the state government is run by the same people who don't want to pay taxes, or who want to be able to brag about how much money they saved the state, so they also can't or find ways out of providing public school funding.

Funding for extracurricular activities including sports teams comes directly from parents of students, local sponsors, the coaching staff, alumni, and other mostly local community sources. The football team got those new lockers because they were donated by an alumnus. They got that new stadium because the construction company that built it is owned by an alumnus and he has it in the contract that his company logo will be displayed and included in any news about the construction. The head coach got that new pick-up because the booster club paid for most of it since they like the guy and got it discounted by a local dealership in exchange for advertising.

Athletic funding is one big pot, not divided by sport. The big sport at a school also pays for a lot of the smaller sports, or at least pays for enough that students don't have massive participation fees that would keep them from even being able to have a team.

The funds in the athletic department do not in any way impact any other extracurricular. They do not impact the school's ability to pay a home economics teacher a fair salary and to have necessary supplies for the class. They have fuck all to do with the cafeteria food or the maintenance budgets.

Blaming sports for problems caused by capitalism because you weren't popular in high school is ignorant and sad.

How to Choose the Best Sprinkler Companies in Perrysburg

When it comes to maintaining a lush, vibrant lawn, having a reliable sprinkler system is essential. Whether you're looking to install a new system or repair an existing one, choosing the right sprinkler company in Perrysburg can make all the difference. With several options to consider, how do you ensure you’re partnering with the best?

Here’s a guide to help you navigate the process and make an informed decision.

1. Look for Local Experience

Local experts can tailor your sprinkler system to the weather conditions and water regulations in the area, ensuring your lawn thrives year-round. Waterville Irrigation Inc., for example, has extensive experience servicing Perrysburg and surrounding areas, providing customized solutions for each property.

2. Check for Proper Licensing and Insurance

Before hiring any sprinkler company , verify that they have the necessary licenses and insurance. A licensed company shows they meet industry standards, while insurance protects you from any liabilities that may arise during installation or repair. Reputable companies like Waterville Irrigation Inc. have all the required certifications and are insured for your peace of mind.

3. Read Customer Reviews

Customer testimonials and online reviews are great indicators of a company's reputation. A good sprinkler company should have a track record of satisfied clients, timely service, and professional installations. Look for reviews that mention efficiency, professionalism, and overall satisfaction. Positive feedback on services like system installation, repair, and maintenance can help you gauge whether the company meets your expectations.

4. Evaluate Their Range of Services

Not all sprinkler companies offer the same services. Some specialize in new installations, while others focus on maintenance, upgrades, or repairs. It’s essential to find a company that provides a comprehensive range of services to meet your specific needs. Waterville Irrigation Inc. offers installation, seasonal maintenance, repairs, and system optimization, ensuring your sprinkler system operates at peak performance year-round.

5. Ask About Water Efficiency Solutions

Water conservation is more critical than ever, especially for lawn irrigation. A forward-thinking sprinkler company will offer water-efficient solutions, such as smart controllers, rain sensors, and drip irrigation systems. These options can help you reduce water waste, lower your utility bills, and keep your lawn healthy. Be sure to ask the company about their approach to eco-friendly irrigation.

6. Get a Detailed Estimate

Before committing to a sprinkler company, get a detailed quote outlining the costs of materials, labor, and any additional services. Make sure the estimate includes a timeline for completion. Transparent pricing is key to avoiding unexpected charges down the line. Reputable companies like Waterville Irrigation Inc. provide clear, upfront pricing with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what to expect.

7. Ongoing Maintenance and Support

A well-maintained sprinkler system can last for years, but it requires regular upkeep to ensure optimal performance. When selecting a sprinkler company, ask about their maintenance plans and support services. Companies that offer ongoing maintenance programs can save you time and hassle in the long run, keeping your system in excellent working order season after season.

Top 10 Open Source Web Crawling Tools To Watch Out In 2024

With technology constantly improving, smart devices and tools are becoming more common. One important aspect of this is data extraction, which is crucial for businesses today. Data is like gold on the internet, and collecting it is essential. In the past, people extracted data by hand, which was slow and difficult. Now, businesses can use modern web crawling tools to make this process easier and faster. 

What Is a Web Crawling Tool? 

A web crawler, sometimes called a bot, spider, or web robot, is a program that visits websites to collect information. The goal of these tools is to gather and organize data from the vast number of web pages available. By automating the data collection process, web crawlers can help you access important information quickly. 

According to a report by Domo, an enormous amount of data—2.5 quintillion bytes—was created every day in 2020. With such a huge volume of data on the internet, using a web crawler can help you collect and organize this information more efficiently. 

Benefits of Web Crawling Tools 

Web crawling tools function like a librarian who organizes a huge library, making it easy for anyone to find the books they need. Here are some benefits of using these tools: 

Monitor Competitors: If you want to succeed in your business, it’s important to keep an eye on your competitors. Best Web crawlers can help you automatically collect data from their websites, allowing you to see their strategies, pricing, and more. 

Low Maintenance: Many web crawling tools require very little maintenance. This means you can save time and focus on analyzing the data rather than fixing technical issues. 

High Accuracy: Accurate data is crucial for making good business decisions. Web crawling tools can improve the accuracy of the data you collect, helping you avoid mistakes that can come from manual data entry. 

Time-Saving: By automating the data collection process, web crawlers can save you hours of work. This allows you to focus on more important tasks that help your business grow. 

Customizable: Many web crawling tools can be tailored to fit your specific needs. Even if you don’t have a technical background, open-source tools often provide simple ways to customize how you gather data. 

Scalable: As your business grows, your data needs will increase. Scalable web crawling tools can handle large volumes of data without slowing down, ensuring you get the information you need. 

What Are Open Source Web Crawling Tools? 

Open-source software is free for anyone to use, modify, and share. Open-source web crawling tools offer a variety of features and can save data in formats like CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML. They are known for being easy to use, secure, and cost-effective. 

A survey revealed that 81% of companies adopt open-source tools primarily for cost savings. This trend is expected to grow, with the open-source services market projected to reach $30 billion by 2022. 

Why Use Open Source Web Crawling Tools? 

Open-source web crawling tools are flexible, affordable, and user-friendly. They require minimal resources and can complete scraping tasks efficiently. Plus, you won’t have to pay high licensing fees. Customer support is often available at no cost. 

Top 10 Open Source Web Crawling Tools 

There are many web crawling tools available. Here’s a list of some of the best open-source options: 

ApiScrapy: Offers a range of user-friendly web crawlers built on Python. It provides 10,000 free web scrapers and a dashboard for easy data monitoring. 

Apache Nutch: A highly scalable tool that allows fast data scraping. It’s great for automating your data collection. 

Heritrix: Developed by the Internet Archive, this tool is known for its speed and reliability. It’s suitable for archiving large amounts of data. 

MechanicalSoup: A Python library designed to automate web interactions and scraping efficiently.

How to Sell Timeshares Companies? A Comprehensive Guide

For so many people, timeshare is the best way to make sure that they get to enjoy their vacations fully at the best price. However, over time, high maintenance fees, rigid timings and other hidden costs transform an investment into a nightmare. Resale is an issue that most owners face because they use the timeshare less or rarely, and this means that the annual costs are prohibitive.

However, selling a timeshare is not as simple as selling other forms of properties as we are going to see. It is often highly illiquid and can be a depreciating asset with little resale value and contractual entanglements that make it difficult. However, anyone can sell their timeshare if approached in the right way and one is willing to get realistic. Here is a step by step guide on selling timeshare. To know more about this, search for “Sell Timeshare Near Me”, and contact Bon Voyage Vacation Services.

Step 1: Review Your Timeshare Contract

Some of the key information to look for includes; The location of the timeshare, size and floor plan of the unit, amenities that come with the unit and the type of ownership you have, this information will be very vital during the sales process.

Ownership Type: There are basically two types of timeshares. Deeded means you own a part of the property as you own the real estate deed that may be passed on to one’s heirs. The other one is Right-to-use agreements that work like a lease, which gives you permission to use the property in the course of the year but do not own the property.

Access and Use Details: These include the fixed week, the floating week and the points system. A fixed week provides a specific week of the year and a floating week provides some more options of the week for a particular year. 

Points system can be more versatile compared to the above forms of rebates since buyers may consider them complicated. It will be easier for you to explain your specific usage arrangement to potential buyers so that they don’t have unrealistic expectations.

Step 2: Determine Your Timeshare’s Market Value

Before you start, find out what similar properties are going for, so you know what your asking price should be. Sites such as eBay, Bon Voyage Vacation Services, or the Timeshare Users Group website may help to identify what similar units are available for sale, and for how much.

Check Similar Sales: Concentrate on ‘sold’ listing as opposed to the listing prices because the former is a better indicator of market demand. It is better to find the properties of similar size, location, and usage type to get a closer figure.

Assess Your Financial Situation: Be certain that your mortgage, fees for maintenance, and the HOA dues have been paid in full and on time. Outstanding fees or a balance on the mortgage can turn off a buyer or even make the process of selling a home lengthy. Any potential buyer wants to purchase a house or a building that they do not have to spend a lot of money on and it is recommended that any balance is paid prior to selling a property.

To determine the value of your timeshare, search for “Sell Timeshare Near Me”, and contact Bon Voyage Vacation Services.

Step 3: Find the Right Sales Method

Option 1: Deal with a Timeshare Resale Firm Another way is to get in touch with licensed brokers who work in the sphere of timeshare resale and who will take care of legal aspects and find buyers for you. It is important to select a company that follows the standards of the American Resort Development Association (ARDA). 

Do not work with companies who require large down payments; good brokers will get their cut after the sale has been made. Initial charges are always a sign of fraudsters.

Option 2: Sell Back to the Resort

Some of the resorts have programs whereby they repurchase the timeshare or ‘feedback’ them meaning that they get back the timeshare without paying for it or pay very little for it. Check with your particular resort for these alternatives. However, be cautious: instead of helping with resale, some of the resorts might attempt to make you purchase upgrades or more points. If the aim is to exit ownership, do not enter any new contracts.

Option 3: DIY Sale

To advertise and sell the timeshare you can post it on websites such as Bon Voyage Vacation Services or post the advertisement on timeshare owner forums. Be as open as possible about all the fees, the types of usage the customer is allowed, and any transfers needed. 

DIY sales may take time and effort, but if done correctly, there is no better way than this since it is cheap. To know more about ways to sell your timeshare, contact Bon Voyage Vacation Services. Search “Timeshare Companies Near Me”, and look for them in the search results. 

Avoiding Common Scams 

That way, selling a timeshare might attract scams and therefore you should keep an eye out for the following signs. Be very cautious of any person who contacts you out of the blue with an offer to buy your property who promises that they already have a buyer or who offers you higher prices than other agents. 

Moreover, those who require large amounts of money for registration or those who want you to become their member and pay money for being a part of a vacation club’.

To confirm the authenticity of any resale company, you should approach the BBB or the ARDA. By avoiding the following practices, you will be safe from the numerous scams in timeshare resale.

Alternative Solutions if You Can’t Sell 

Rent Out the Timeshare: The annual fees can be helped by renting, it has been established. Advertise it on the sites offering vacation rentals hence displaying all possible costs to get renters who are in search of short-term accommodations.

Donate to Charity: A few charities take timeshare donations but may expect you to pay any maintenance fees that are still owed. Look for charity organizations that allow this kind of donation.

Release to the Resort: Some of the resorts have what they call feedback, which means you have to return the timeshare to the resorts with no charges if you have not paid any fees. To be certain of this possibility, it is recommended to get in touch with the resort.

Conclusion

It is not always easy to sell a timeshare, therefore one should be patient enough and set the right attitude to the whole process. Do not think that timeshares increase in value over the years and the idea is to unload yourself from the burden.

Do not acquire new services, change your package or sign new contracts; anything that ties you to the company will only make the process of resale even more cumbersome. If you are still confused or eager for more advice, you better ask for an advisor who can assist you with which way is perfect for you. To know more about this, search for “Sell Timeshare Near Me”, and contact Bon Voyage Vacation Services.
