Choice of Heating for rental property

[Kyle Isenberg]

Just a general question to see what everyone thinks…

What would be your choice for heating a rental property? I feel like central air is a great investment just for the sake of ease of use for a tenant. It also gives us more piece of mind knowing the house will probably not be un heated due to running out of oil, propane, or other alternatives. Most tenants seem like they keep up with their electric bills so they still have tv, lights, internet. 

Bonus is that if the central air has a/c and heat then it eliminates the potential of people breaking window frames or windows in general by putting window units in and out. 

What is everyones thoughts on this. Assume the property is a SFH or duplex.
