1.If the house is old (1950),please try to remove heating oil tank if it is the source of heating.You can negotiate with the seller before you entered in your new house.In 2017,the oil price are too high that we could end up spending $1500-$2000 for heating just for 3 to 4 months. Switch to natural gas and you could save lots of money.
