Hi All,I have office building in Brockton MA for which contractor started a job to convert electric heating into Gas.

This often may be an intensely heated subject.

Tenants pay electric, gas, heat.

Electricity shouldn't be a problem but it may not be realistic to separate the heating systems.

No it is not off grid it has consistent power, central air and heat, water, and all the appliances of a normal house.

The AC unit (heat works fine) that wasn't working when I bought the place and I hadn't bothered to remove it bugged him and the bank (SunTrust) asked me to fix it before they'd continue forward.

I owned a heating and air company with my husband for over 22 years and I can tell you there are enough losers out there that will pull nonsense like not showing or giving outrageous prices.

@Michael BrunnerIn an SFH here in Madison and surrounding area, I would expect the tenant to pay all utilities (Heat, Electric, and Water).  

HEATING AIR: Boiler in basement that services all units, making heat included in rent. 

§Providing access to vital services: You must provide access to hot and cold water, electricity, heat and fuel (e.g. natural gas).
