I always use Andy Semones, with Metro Air and Heat, for years on all my rentals and flips here in Winston. 

We added washer/dryer connections to all units and ductless min split heat pumps.

Water source and septic can be built if there is no public water and sewer.Sometimes it so rural you need propane tanks and to supply energy and heat..

Very easy to rent year-round to long-term tenants.Features:* 2 separate electric meters ( Tenants pay electric)* Landlord avg' water & sewer - $68 + $75.Unit A: 2bed/1bath, 660 Heated SqFt, currently rented for only $500 to the same long term tenants.Unit B: 2bed/1bath, 660 Heated SqFt, currently rented for only $550 to the same long term tenants."

If tenants pay heat and/or water it’s swings the numbers.

Folks cash out before they get their butt in a sling with late taxes high heating bills and holding costs .

Lets say I have to spend 20k to redo roof and heating on top of that in an absolute worst case scenario and I'm only up 20k IRR my first year.

I should take a little heat for the unconventional stance.

Both units have radiant heat ceiling panels, as well as several baseboard heaters in the front rooms.

Note, I pay electric and heat/hot water in this building which averages $405 p/month.
