The goal is to find a good one and move everything under one roof... but yes, nothing wrong with testing the waters with a new company... even in the same city.

I do agree that my priorities were wrong but at this point that is water under the bridge.

Hi Simon,If you have a boiler, you might want to understand its parts and how it works--in detail.There are steam boilers, and water boilers, water tube systems, and fire tube systems.They all have different parts that can fail, and some have redundant parts to keep heat on if there is a failure and some don't.If you know your stuff about this big ticket item, you will be less likely to be at the mercy of an overcharging repairman.Just my 2 cents.Good Luck!

Hola, I recently submitted a buy proposal with my realtor for 1.5 acre water’s edge Smith River (NW CA) property which the owner is currently reviewing and is likely to accept.

It had enough water rights to be able to have our own water treatment plant as well which will be a nice income generator for many years to come.

Eliminating that expense will increase your value by ~$200k, assuming the 8% Cap Rate is correct.Anyway to bill back water/sewer through RUBS?

Right now were working out sewer and water access and other logistical stuff.
