I am not a financial advisor but I am a blue collar worker who married young and had a boat load of student debt and wondered if i could afford gas to get to work let alone buy a house.  

There are a lot of expenses such as fees, dues, advertising, gas to drive around etc.

Occasionally we will get these kind of requests ("I have a gas dryer, can we put in gas?") to

I also hired someone to convert my stove from gas to propane because I just didn't feel comfortable doing it.

The issue I'm facing at the moment is that there is no gas to the house - everything is electric, including heat and hot water.

IE if the norm is for gas to be paid by the tenant, yet your tenant has to pay their gas + hot water gas usage, it will "feel" more expensive to them and many applicants will pass (and you'll suffer higher vacancy).

There is a whole lot to the process.You need a civil engineer to do site plan, stormwater design etc, architect to design and Gas to bid on final plans and specs.

Im in process of upgrading all of my hot water heaters in my 16 unit apartment complex. For 2k a unit (32k total) I can upgrade my electrical in the units to adequately provide service to Air conditioners and electric...

It doesn't use enough gas to make it financially worth shutting off.

I had them set up my fridge water then the next time they didn’t connect my dryer to the gas because they were being lazy and/or said they were behind with the deliveries but made me sign a page that had checkboxes like did you hook up the gas to the appliance?
