Hey @Kevin C. ...Welcome to Bigger Pockets! You may want to complete your BP profile and choose a photo. It will improve you networking ability and draw more responses to your posts.
To answer your question, really need more info.... the place has a furnace and boiler and baseboard heating? How old is the building? What is the make-model-year of the furnace? Some furnaces last 50 years or longer. Others have an expected life expectany half that. What fuels the furnace? - electric, gas, oil, coal? Ditto for the boiler - need make, model, year. What is the heat distribution system? - ductwork, pipes, radiators? Where are the electric baseboard heaters located? Lastly, what leads you to believe these all need to be replaced? Not working? Damaged? Worn out?
Prices are easy to find by looking on line, visiting stores, and talking to HVAC companies in your area. You'll be looking at the cost of labor and materials.
