They pointed out to him, you can live without a car, cable, or phone, even electricity and heat for a few days, but not without a roof, rent first. 

It currently has baseboard electric heat, but that won't be sufficient during the Ohio winter months. 

We settled on 150k, a little higher than I hoped but all I was aware of it needing immediately was a new boiler heating system for the second floor unit (as the current one has been broken for 15 years and the current and long term tenants have been heating their unit with space heaters ever since), and a spring porch rebuild.

I see the renter leave and just abandon the dog.. i have seen them stake the dog in the back yards with no water in 100 degree heat no shelter.. its animal cruelty that these owners for whatever reason seem to have to no regard for common decency and Ptts tend to be the dog of choice for them. 

Does anyone have experience installing heated pipe tape in units that have already been built and are occupied?

Perhaps there something as slick as a heat map?

Anyone have experience doing a bulk purchase with some sort of suitable heat source for a mobile home?

Also, if the unit dies, you will lose heat and hot water both at the same time and have to repair/replace the entire system.I would stick to a traditional boiler and water heater unless space were a factor to consider.
