According to numbers I've received from the listing agent, the annual heating/oil expense is just shy of $11,000 a year.

I know several of the MFH in that part of Roseville have those 1950s oil burning furnaces, they are at their service life, so it dies it dies.Also, you will need to put in Central Air I would guess.I get $850 and $725 for my units.  

Strangely enough it's about time in the cycle to begin talking about oil and gas royalties and working interests as replacements for investment real estate. 

I have spares ,  I have 2 refrigerators , 3 washers 1 dryer , a hot water heater and tomorrow I am picking up a 4 year old oil fired boiler for free ( they run about 4 grand ) 

I have a commercial unit ($350) that makes quite a bit of improvement.If nothing works, you may have to replace the flooring or paint it with an oil-based Kilz and then put down something else for flooring.

I once traded a 19' Fishing boat that I took in trade for a down payment on a house and traded it for supplies.
