Just talked to my AC company, and furnace isn't an option since we don't have gas to the property.

@Dee Mandrekar highly doubtful there's such a big difference between market rent and S8 rent.First off, the GROSS S8 amount includes specific amounts for all utilities - electric, gas, water, trash, etc.We do NOT recommend including utilities in the rent because S8 only pays a certain amount and the owner is then exposed to tenant abuse of utilities. 

**Save money**: With reduced expenses (gas, power, tolls, etc.), we estimate that we will be about to increase our savings from about $600 per month to about $2,000 per month.4.

Moving the lockbox to a less visible place like gas pipes, garage door, etc. 

We have water and gas to heat water and run stove.

I’m moving out of the house soon and will be living rent-free with my wife at my parents' place in the Bay Area due to some recent life changes.Here’s a breakdown of my situation:Location: Sacramento, CA (4 bed, 2 bath, recently renovated)Current mortgage payment: $3,940/month (including escrow)Mortgage balance: $475,000Current home value: $515,000 - $535,000 (based on comps)Rental estimate: Property management companies are quoting $2,600/month (with fridge/washer/dryer included), but some websites suggest it could go for up to $3,000/month.Planned budget:$540/month for capital expenditures and maintenance$100/month for lawn careTenant to cover utilities (gas, electricity, water)7.5% vacancy rateWe bought the house thinking it would be our forever home, but with our current situation, I’m trying to figure out the best long-term plan.

I recently received a letter from People's Gas regarding a Landlord Reversion Agreement.

There has been a run on gas and food, and schools are closed for the week. 

Also there isn't as much appreciation in the area, it takes longer to evict (MUCH longer), and they have lien-able water and gas - so if someone skips out on the bill, it's on me as the property owner.My point is, high taxes are just one consideration but not an end all be all.

FEMA rental Assistance covers the cost of monthly rent and essential utilities, gas, electric, water, trash, and sewer.
