I have houses, with forced air NG, boilers NG & oil, steam boilers and electric radiant heat. 

I am considering the NG only because of the 19th and 20th SFGs and a potential Active Guard Position back home in NYC for the NYS NG.  

B I N G O! 

Hey, @Timothy Ng, might you share, in what part of town is the property located? 

Again it's not because you're white/black/gay...it's because you have a *****ng hoodie on at night when it's 90 degrees out. 

Hey @Nicholas Rella - most likely not, otherwise people would be 1031'ng all of their capital gains indefinitely without reinvesting back into other properties (which is what the government wants real estate investors to do and the whole purpose behind the 1031 program). 

@Peter Bowen , @Kim Meredith Hampton , @Rich Ng, @David KrulacThank you for your help! 

@Rich Ng, thanks so much for the pro tip!

In a nutshell, even though the actual loads (ie: Btu/hr) of the water heater, cooling, and heating system, are not anywhere close to that - my guess is that Title 24 dictates what the supply capacity (ie: the NG lines typically for the water heater and furnace) must be. 

I am thinking’s ng of doing some Airbnb at the same time S.O. was another great suggestion.
