Hi Derek, the natural gas fireplace inserts look much better, maybe even luxurious.

Hi Darren,Boilers here are typically gas heated.

Driving for dollars can work but you do have to spend a bit of time on that and of course gas ain't cheap so far from "free".

This property is attractive to us because the mortgage would be less than our car payment and we could make money each month of the rent.My concern is that it is right beside a gas station, Dollar General, and they are putting in a Mcdonalds.

Allow water, sewer, trash, and gas bills to be directly in the tenant's name, and attached to the tenant rather than the landlord.

Here's the details:Purchase Price: $62,000Closing costs: approx $3,000Monthly Rent ($725, unit 3&4 currently rented)Unit 1- 600 (2br) -newer cabinets and carpetUnit 2- 450 (1br) -newer cabinets and carpetUnit 3- 350 (studio)Unit 4- 375 (1br)Monthly Expenses- ($488, not including management or maintenance)Insurance- 83tax-138 water- 47 (total house-city won't provide separate meters) trash-18 gas-50 (owner pays gas for unit 3 and 4, 1 water heater for both units) electricity- unknown sewer-26 unknown (estimate based on local rates - 26)Maintenance ???

Gas dryer is much cheaper to operate than electric.

However, This town (Washington PA just south of Pittsburgh) is flooded with gas, oil, and shale mining workers from out of state.

It could be gas or electric.

I once had a $3,000 gas heating bill.
