The strange thing though, is that the MLS shows the home to be 1,895 sq ft even though the sunroom is heated and cooled, and attached to the house securely, with windows (this sunroom is an amazing add-on and in great alignment with the rest of the home compared to other sunroom mods I’ve seen).

When it comes to electric and gas is that heat related?

**Heating System: Lack of Heat in Some Livable Rooms** - Several 'livable' rooms had no visible source of heat.

IMHO, the summer heat is more than made up for by the year-round sun....you will rarely be rained out.Just my $0.02

And be sure to smell behind cabinets-especially kitchen cabinets that don't go all the way to the ceiling (cats sit on cabinets and pee right there), bottom of doors (urine drips down door and runs across the unpainted bottom, it gets absorbed and still smells), any heat/ac vents on the floor or low on the walls (looks like a litter box to cats), thresholds (pee at the door and the pee runs between all the cracks) behind toe strips, baseboards, etc.)

And with what -- at least here in Denver and Colorado Springs -- is a market that's heating up again, I'd want to keep my momentum going sooner rather than later. 2.

If the cash flow on the existing properties goes close to breakeven, seems like you would be increasing your risk of large capital expenditures, like roofs or heat pumps, without cash flow to sustain them. 

Do energy efficient upgrade tax credits (for new windows, doors, heat pump, etc) work for rental properties? 

You are also in the northeast which is crazy expensive to heat, especially if using electric heat.
