@Damon AlbersI hate the alphabet rating system because it is such an arbitrary thing that boils down many important factors to one letter. 

There is a huge gain probably in a more efficient gas system then oil so they are already getting some cost savings. 

If you’re renting an apartment building to mostly Section 8 tenants, the main difference from single-family or smaller multifamily properties is scale—you’re dealing with more units, so you’ll need solid systems for maintenance and tenant management.

Everything else is fairly controllable, and even Capex is foreseeable.
