You got it @ Raj Gandhi.
So buying multiple properties with scenario #3 will get you a nice place under a bridge unless you can endure the losses until morts are paid in full.
Nothing I want to do. And hoping for appreciation is a gamble. Again, nothing I want to do.

Chances are the heat exchanger is corroded and plugged up.
I read (internet) that muratic acid and water 50/50 mix can clean it. If a yearly clean was done this probably would not have got this bad. Take the advice of the plumber over mine, he is actually looking at the boiler. If they get too corroded you may be better to just replace it.

I have been thinking about this also. I have made three trips to Florida where my mother and sister live and every time I look at property. So I'm looking forward to hearing more replies.

Strike up the you tube video and diagnose and fix it. They are generally pretty easy to fix. I had to replace the valve on my personal fridge.
