Its your house.You definitely want the RA to deliver clean unobstructed air back to the unit. 

Sometimes for older apartments, they are hidden in the cellar.Type in these three addresses for examples which are all a block from each other: 647 16th sT NE (RF-1 single-family), 1537 GAles ST NE (RA-2 apartment), and 619 16th ST NE (RF-1 Condo) I do have one client who bought a house back in the '90s that had separate meters.

And also make sure you send a message immediately upon booking with your RA.

You will find a few unlicensed RA RA broker cheerleaders on BP to help push you along and give you a pat on the back but I won't be one of them:)
