This is the simplest method, but it also means your tenants are more likely to abuse the utilities by leaving windows open with the heat or A/C running, leaving lights on, ignoring the toilet that constantly flushes on its own, etc.3.

Hey Jordan how do you see the next few years Panning out as a builder In Ontario?

You could take out the only toilet in a house and code enforcement would then condemn the property for being unlivable.

In either case, you can't work on the property as it must be a passive investment (e.g. you must hire someone to fix the toilet and can't pay the expense with non-retirement funds).7.

As a fellow San Diegan I'll be curious to see how the project pans out.

They watch the water level (often pulling a toilet to see the level) for 30 minutes or so to see if the level drops at all.

IIRC the  biggest expense was for the toilet mounting flange, the T-junction to tie into the pipe into the septic system and the new roof jack.

Look for and replace leaking drains, shower heads, toilets, or anything cheap that's going to cause future issues.

ex: you have galvanized pipe to the toilet that is clogged due to the age.

For me, it was pretty pointless flushing money down the toilet for AHS
