Smart Home & AV in Montibello, viewed through the errors that recur
Retrofitting technology into a 1970s plaster-and-stud house is a cabling and coverage problem long before it is a product-selection problem.
Structured wiring, access-point placement, and rack location should be decided during framing exposure — every month later multiplies the cost of the same result.
The recurring failure is treating a neighborhood-level generalization as an address-level fact. Assignment, covenants, buildable envelope, and tax basis are all parcel-specific, and each has burned buyers who assumed otherwise.
What matters most
The points below are the ones that change outcomes when smart home and AV in Montibello is approached with the errors that recur in mind.
- Wire during renovation
- Open walls are the cheapest hour in the entire project.
- Coverage
- Deep lots and masonry walls both defeat single-router setups.

- Service
- A local integrator who answers the phone matters more than brand.
