Water is master metered and paid by the owner but all other utilities (sewer, gas, cable, electricity) are individually metered and paid by the tenants It is in a small, rural town in Washington state.

Saved me a lot of paper, gas and most of all time. 

However, most buyers/renters prefer natural gas.

Electrical service is individually metered (two meters), water and gas both have one meter for the entire building, and my tenants pay based on percentage of square feet. 

If you specifically want to buy grandma's place so you can get a better deal or better terms, then you're just pouring gas on all the emotions at play and pretty much guaranteeing a family squabble. 

Gas and electric are separately metered, therefore would be paid by tenants.

I have a good paying job for straight out of college $55K.I have no debt to account for anymore.My only expense right now is Gas as I live with my parents to save money.My credit score is 760+Where should I look at and if anyone has any recommendations for the Chicagoland area lending wise that would be great.

Another option I was thinking about was relocating the gas line so I could move thestove to a different part of the kitchen in order to build an enclosure for the water heater unit. 

Call the utility dept (water gas etc) to see if any unpaid balances are owed on the property.

The unit is on propane, so I bought the propane conversion kit as well.I called Home Depot to let them know that this particular unit runs on liquid propane, not natural gas.
