However factor in utilities because if it is in fact "raw land" you have to think about things like sewer, water, electricity, and gas. 

Every Monday I will be highlighting a deal I was apart of either as an investor or agent highlighting a different investment strategy and how it was executed in the local market.This past spring I was a buyer agent on a 2-family house hack deal in Southington, Connecticut.Property details:- 2- family side-by-side duplex- Each unit identical 2-bed/1-bath layouts- Natural gas heat- Each unit has own driveway- Solid B+ neighborhood- Very desirable area to rent and own What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

It also helps make your expense more fixed instead of having a big jump in the gas bill in the winter and the a jump in the electric in the summer. 

We are not moving any water wires, gas lines, etc. 

In a way, it's a lot like the various gas stations you surely pass by every day.  

I'm inclined to swap natural gas HW tanks for electric when they die to make it easier/quicker on replacement, but curious if anyone has been using tankless as they claim to have a longer life. 

My recommendation is buy a midrange washer and dryer and have them professionally installed, this will make the house more attractive to prospective tenants (most renters aren't brining their washer and dryer around with them) and you will ensure that it is safely connected as some are natural gas and washers require water.  

I am looking at a property that uses a ton of gas, it has boilers, and is in a cold climate.

My buying reasons were: Positives:Out of 59 lots, 36 lots had mobile homes ( from 1980’s) but only 18 were occupied.Area is within city limit, close to a gas station, dollar general, church, bus station.

I work at a gas station for $14/hr and I have $3,000 in my bank account.
