Don't blame you for that, I'm sure Trumbull has its fair share of DD, gas stations and pizza.

He suggested a bunch of stuff but the biggest was to get a real estate lawyer to look into the property because there could be leans or other issue like the property being on an old gas station property which can be a big issue.

It seems that he opted not to run the furnace (gas) and instead used space heaters.

Gas or electric and if gas is it a power vented model.

If not, where is the nearest and who will be responsible for cost of extending these-  Additional utilities like Electric and Gas service availability.

If you had to make a choice between replacing a flat tire on your car, of filling an empty gas tank, which would you choose? 

The seller bragged about his installation of a solar hot water system and told me his gas bill for heating hot water and the laundry room was only $75 per month.

I am open to investing in small businesses as well (like self storage, laundry, gas station etc.) as long as I don't have to actively participate in day to day operations.Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Is there any concerns considered the economy is heavily tied with oil and gas?

I understand why most of the information is needed, however am trying to understand the need to enter in expenses (such as electricity, gas, and possibly garbage) that the tenant would be responsible for.
