DSL and cable internet are not available at every house so ensure you check on the vendors website to see what is available at your potential residence.

One even includes cable for my tenant.

I purchased a 4-unit last year and came to find out that one of the tenants had cable and HBO included in their lease (also explained why the rent was higher than market). 

When I send a notice to Pay or Quit, I tell my tenants it's similar to a late notice from the cable company.

She suddenly remembered wires that she had forgotten for her TV (she had 2x 5" holes cut out of the feature wall to hide her cables, without asking) so it was easier to have her reputable painter guy pop in and cover up the holes and remove her last items without me having to see her again.My fault for not just getting it done myself I suppose but she is the sort of tenant that uses Court Action in seemingly every sentence and was seen taking pictures of everything when she left and even took a picture of her notice taped to my front door so I was trying to minimize any court action by at least keeping her in the loop of all the damage so I could get her replies by text to use if she decided to challenge my return deposit amount.She did admit to the burns in the carpet (stupidly putting hot coals from the fire in a plastic home depot bucket) and argued that it wasn't cat urine but vomit as her cat had cancer (but obviously didn't think to clean them or have them professionally cleaned).  

You'll need to pay the utilities and provide cable and internet. 

@Matt ShumateHi MattI can put you in contact with someone who handles our negotiation with cable providersPM me if you want me to make the introductionGino

I used to install HVAC systems and I think the question you are asking is should you use cable electric heat in the ceilings or should you use an air to air heat pump.

However, if you're pretty sure the owner's in "trouble" try to determine her "zero out" price on the house, when you view the property look on all closet shelves and kitchen drawers to see how many late notices from the light company, cable company, Sears, Master Charge etc are sitting around.
