My capex budget includes but not limited too: roof 25 life span, floors 10 year life span, appliances and hot water heater 12 year life span, hvac 20 year life span, bath and kitchen remodel 20 year life span, etc.

Hey guys, I was wondering if you had any recommendations for longevity and efficiency for hot water tanks.

I recently made a few attempts, but I don't know how much water and electric coast.

I need a great water submeter company to submeter a 4plex.

I suspect it must be when I try to estimate the electricity , water and sewage , HOA and to mention a few, I turn to google first and if i don't find any information I just guesstimate a worst case scenario - I know, not the best of tactics and I am usually working on my active job during the day otherwise I'll call the utilities company.

I need a good Sub meter water company for a 4 plex?

Electrical and Water/sewer? 

It brings in around $80,000/year and owner only pays water. 

When the contractor went to make his final inspection of the turnover repairs (nothing major ~$200) he found the property had been broken into and the furnace, A/C, water heater and kitchen range stolen: about $6.5 K loss. 

("Water please," Id tell the barista.)--------5 years later...best decision ever made.
