Does the propane tank come with the house?

Q: Does the propane tank come with the house? It isn't listed with the appliances, and we weren't sure!!

A:Yes, it can stay with the house. As we discussed when we wrote the offer, you will reimburse the Sellers for the propane, and can keep the tank in place, or find a different vendor to buy gas from. The vendor owns the tank and lets you use it in exchange for your buying fuel from them; and there is no charge if you switch vendors.

The old tank would be picked up & new tank dropped off/hooked up. You will want to wait until the spring to have this done as you do not want to be without heat during the winter. Just keep in mind, in the spring with two trucks driving in your back yard you could have some yard care (better wait until it's dryed up a bit). So if you are going to change propane providers please think before you schedule the appointment.
