    You're a slumlord.

    I'd like to go tankless just to clear up space and clutter, and I know who I'll call if I ever go that route.

    I WAS a slumlord. We sold the place after only a year. Neighborhood was gong to crap if you remember.

    Aiming to lose over 60lb this year and drop sub 200. 3 weeks in and so far so good, but hey the first 25lb are easy.
    Hate counting the calories of every item I eat, not to mention eating approx 1600cal a day sucks. At least 21 more weeks of this.

    Cutting carbs to a minimum will really help. Good luck!

    You can actually install one outside of you wanted. Those require plugged heat tape during the winter months. Very involved install.

    I could put one in my heated garage pretty easily I bet. That's not a bad idea, except I'd like to avoid water pipes in the attic.

    Do you have a crawl space?

    Thanks Irving. Yep, cut the carbs to 80g a day or so. Wanted to go lower but I get lethargic in the evening @ sub 70g. Go figure.

    Ahhh yes. I did forget that you got out of it. That points back to choosing property wisely, but there's no such thing as a sure bet.
