He bought the home with no money down, Home town Heros program and creative finance, then we developed the property by improving it with electrical upgrade additional meters and more bedrooms.

I am torn between out-of-state GA and in-state TRI-State STR BRRR or if its provides a pretty penny cash flow then LTR.

Hi everyone, we currently moved from WNY and live in a 2nd floor apartment of a 3 unit multi-family house on the east side of Providence (near Hope Village).

However, we do not want the tenant to pay for the electricity that we use.I contacted Edison and the County to see if we could install an additional electric pole to have a separate meter, but they said it is not allowed to have more than one pole for our property.I found a sub-meter on Amazon, and I wonder if it is allowed to install one on the electric pole, so our tenant can see how much energy we have used.

Not sure I am allowed to post recommendations to service providers on the forums directly.

In addition, you do not need to report the sale of the business or rental part on Form 4797.
