I got the already great price lowered a little more as it needed a new Central Heat and Air unit right after purchase which was a pretty big expenditure.

Example: Room sizes that may have been adequate in the early 1920's but for today's market just won't work, so you end up tearing down a wall to expand a room or the entire property being heated by a boiler. 

Heat source is there but no power to see if it is working or not. 3.

I fixed a drier last month for 24$ it gave me a kit with all the guts and the new heating element all delivered to my door in a day thanks to amazon prime .

If your going to separate water and electricity at that point you might as well as separate the heat too.

Austin has great potential long-term, no doubt -- but currently, it seems over-heated and deals seem incredibly hard to come by. 

Another issue here is that the controls for heat and a/c or only located in my unit and the 3x2.I know this sounds messy but I have no doubt I will find a way to make it work.

@Ebonee Bachman Carver/Langston has been heating up. 

Utilities are often covered by the landlord, especially heating which is a major expense.

Worked all summer in this house, under this house, on top of this house in south Georgia heat with no a/c until a week before we rented it (5 month project), A/c Unit broke twice, not enough money to replace, A/c Man finally fixed it good.
