@Wagner Nolasco Thanks for confirming....Not sure why you are getting all of the heat and not the builder.

Given this is where my major operating expenses fell (beyond taxes and insurance), keeping this cost lower, by average, helps my cash flow.I invest in older neighborhoods, so the 2-4 unit properties, typically have single water meter, maybe single electric, and many have radiator heat with a single boiler.  

Pete Beach and Treasure Island heating up, it might be worth tapping into that dormant potential.

After they left she called me, they used heat to kill the bedbugs and in doing so they literally melted all of the mini-blinds and the LVP buckled so bad that it all had to be replaced.

Since yours is only water and heat I would recommend you charge 50% and lower the rent cost rather than factoring it into the rent price.

After you paid for a hotel for your tenants for the last week while the ac, the heat or the water heater was broken.  

You are correct that insulation is almost certainly a bigger bang for the buck in a heating climate.

Only tankless water heaters, extra insulation, heating/cooling, etc....

I teach yoga here, own a business and we likely know some of the same people - it's not a big area!

None of the leases matched, the properties look like hey never got repaired , no heat , pipes frozen , 2,5ft sewer in the basement. 1/2 in gap between front door and door jam.
