In a month, I will move into a home that I am renting with a friend. I fell in love with the place.
The kicker is that it is oil heat, which I've never encountered before.
The leasing agent, M, explained that there are two ways to go.
First, we could pay as we go, which means we use the heat as we wish, and then we pay for the oil as it is needed for refills. Or...
Second, we pay a flat rate per month for a year, which gives insurance against oil price hitting highs or having terrible weather.
M quoted $200 a month when we signed on - evidently from someone he knows.
Thoughts on handling this and which way to go?
