We just bought a new construction home and am picking out appliances. I prefer to cook on a gas stove vs electric. There is no gas line in th kitchen but the home does have a gas furnance so there is gas coming into the home. How easy or hard is it to put a line into the kitchen and what is all involved?
Thanks

I bought a property as a primary residence in 2004 (residence A). I lived there until 10/10/2006, when I moved into a new primary residence home (Residence B). I place my original residence (A) up for rent. I did not find a renter until after January in 2007. My question is can I still file Schedule E in 2006 and take a loss for the residence A? I do know I would have to prorate the portion I lived there in schedule A and the portion of the year I had it for rental in Schedule E (if I am allowed to show I received no rental money). Also, for depreciation, what should I use for the value of my home (and for other things, like appliances, or other assets in the home)?

Thank you.

I am connected to city natural gas, but the only appliance in my home that uses it is the gas fireplace. Since we’d only use that about three or four times a year I don’t want to pay the $5 monthly fee that the utilities company charges. The result is that the fireplace sits dormant because I don’t have the gas turned on.

So is there a way to hook this system to a bottle, then just fill the bottle with propane or natural gas and use it when I want to have a fire and never turn on the utilities?
