If you keep the house open, then you have to pay your utility bills such as electric and heat (especially in this winter if you are further north). 

Yes he is obligated to pay until March 31 but my concern is an unoccupied unit in New England in the winter you run a risk. 

Looks like when the company went in to winterize the place they opens the taps but forgot to check if all the sinks were open.

@Joe JacksonMost have standard rates for services like winterization and changing a lock.

I am planning on buying a house this winter/spring and I will rent out the top unit as well to pay toward my new mortgage. 

Hello, Trying to manage my 3-flat in Evanston and looking for a snow cleaning service for rest of the winter.

Also please make sure that your room rental cost factors in light,water and gas for heat in winter and hot water annually.

I usually work fall and spring and some of winter and take off all of summer. with this being said if I wanted to use private or hard money to buy a property for a brrr deal would the bank still allow me to refinance the property into a mortgage to pay the initial lender back or would they be off put by my job situation and how does credit play  a role in that aspect. ( I have a 650 credit score with 3 and a half years of perfect payment history the only reason for it still being low is i moved and a old hospital bill was sent to my previous address that i was unaware i had and eventually hit collections. 

In the summer as Airbnb (lower price than traditional condos, but still $$ in your pocket) and in the winter months do 1-2 month rentals of the same room to traveling nurses or to military moving and waiting for housing (lots of that here with several military bases). 

It is indeed in Orange county, In the winter garden area which as you know seems to be a very hot spot currently .
