Electric heat bronx ny
I looked at a legal 2 family in the bronx. 3 br over 3 br with a 1 br walk in. What is mainly holding me back from making a decision is that everything in all the units is electric. Electric heat and electric stove. Also the hot water tanks are electric. Gas is not an option. On this particular block there are no gas lines to any of the houses. My question is does anyone on here have any experience in nyc with this? In my mind this will chase away tenants or make the tenants leave after a winter. I have never had electric heat so I have no idea what the electric bills will look like due to the heat.
