I will have to look into getting a more energy efficient heater.

Most agents loosely communicate verbally with one another and you might hear that an offer is too low or there are other offers that beat yours.

At the same time, I have a rental property and use my home computer to communicate with PM, update Excel spreadsheet, pay rental expenses, etc.

To maximize the number of transactions you’re involved in you will need to:Be Top of Mind when they think about moving - which requires consistent reminders.Be seen as an Expert – which requires a consistent message and Evidence of Success storiesGain their Trust – which requires communicating integritySo, start out by listing everyone you know in an Excel spreadsheet.

It’s really a case by case basis but make sure to stay in communication with your insurance provider as well as your lender as there are notification requirements you have to provide to them

Electric wall heaters are not as efficient as gas, but it depends on what your area rates are.You'll have to crunch the numbers to see if it's worth it.
