The lower energy usage might be a selling point for some prospective tenants, too.

I noticed last time I renewed my tenants' leases (MA) that there's a new clause in the BP-provided form about cannabis usage, with some really draconian-sounding restrictions on it (text below).

If you just got this unit, sometimes the electric utility can tell you what the usage was like in past summers.

@Miguel Vargas If you check on the property appraiser website for the county it should be able to give you the zoning and land usage for the lot.

You could review their usage annually to determine the monthly bill amount going forward.

The tax credit is 30% through the end of this year and will diminish from then.The savings and value add depend on a lot of factors including where the property is located, your usage of power, size of system desired, etc.

We are exploring the idea, but of course don't want to do anything that would inappropriately gather data from folks who don't want that shared with the public.

I will plan to do just 1 type from bathroom to kitchen and all other rooms (in preparation for my mom's future wheelchair usages).

Give it time to go to the credit bureau so it registers usage, and then pay it off so it can register a "Paid Tradeline", which gives you a few points each time.

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).
