I have seen some fascinating Eco friendly houses here in Australia and have considered such a business for the Colorado market, but some of the neatest rain water collection systems would be challenging in a cold climate.

This place is kinda like getting a drink of water from a firehouse.

Asking Price $180,000Gross Monthly Rent = $2,650Additional Income = $175 (plus or minus; laundry)Owner pays water & trash (I don't have numbers yet), tenants pay electric.Taxes = $1,400/yrBased on those numbers it seems like a something to take a closer look at...agree?

Maybe not using the water while under construction allowed bacteria to get a foothold?

Found the subfloor had water damage under the toilet...went ahead and replaced the subfloor and added tile (very good price.)

Plain and simple.My tenants have my phone number, my email, and they text me.

The majority of underground tanks (up to 80%) leak and if it does then you have soil and potentially ground water contamination to deal with.

The community here can definitely help you navigate the waters.

The water's warm!

@Chris Adams you're probably right that in your area it is different than in Georgia.With that said, in Atlanta the water company is also owned by the city and the law here states:(c) A public or private water supplier shall not impose a lien against real property to secure unpaid charges for water furnished unless the owner of such real property is the person who incurred the charges.
