I miss Bojangles, college basketball and the beach, but I am strongly on team Dry Heat.

It has forced air gas heat.

I am looking to turn up the heat in my own life by starting this business - and with luck, good strategies, and great networking I am hoping to make it what I know it can be.

A few of his houses have become so bad that he cannot rent them, or he only gets the tenants for one month who don't pay and linger until kicked out without heat or running water.   

Hi, I have a three family in Brooklyn and pay for the heat.

My goal is to develop good capital and maintenance budgets.Description         Price Range      Life of Item       Equivalent Annual Reserve RangesWater heater        $900-1700           8-12 years       $75-213Central heating    $6K-8K               15-20 years      $300-533Central cooling    $4.6K-5.6K          15-20 years     $230-373Roof                     $14-18K              10-15 years      $950-1,850Foundation          $3.7K-7.5K           15-20 years     $185-500Total annual capital reserve reserve $1,740-3,469I did the roof estimate based on a house size of ~2,000 square feet.  

Permitted, windows need to be egress sized, you need to split heat and put in a closet. 

Drew:A single heat source in converted homes is not uncommon.
