(so each apt. would be on sep. zone instead of one like it is now) - Because of the fact the radiators have more mass and don’t need as much heat, PLUS the fact you don’t have the “stack temp†restriction (law says oil fired boiler than uses chimney must get stack temp to certain temp but propane has no exhaust) – can run these propane furances at lower temp therefore saving energyso that all being said I'd love your thougts on what a good "plan of action" would be for replacement some day.another note: 3 of hte apartments are laid out so they'd be great candidates for propane monitors. bottom floor is 1 BR BUT larger layout, might need 2 monitors or other heat source which would be pricier....

This means that their resources are stretched and it's up to us as clients to keep the more strongly monitored.

This is more flexible but also adds more complexity since the value of the shares will fluctuate over time and that needs to be monitored and calculated every time an investor joins or leaves the fund. 

Besides monitoring the owner/rental ratio, some HOAs have bylaws that disallows an owner from renting one's unit.BTW, just to build on Rich's point, a friend received a special assessment for an extra $15+K (with the other owners in his subdivision who were current on their dues) a few months ago to cover the back dues from several of the other underwater owners.

Mark,Monitor price changes, days on market, etc... 

I know there's a lot of people that will be monitoring this thread, in fact, I had two messages just this morning on new construction, so I'll message them the link!
