Rental, plan to buy...

Christ · 03-17-13, 10:46 AM

My question is that, even though I plan to buy, the deal may fall through... is it worth doing some of the more simple upgrades to the home to conserve despite that I may have to leave them in place [padding someone else's wallet] if we can't buy the place?

I know about simple [cheap] things like insulating the water heater tank, shading windows in the summer, insulating the heater runs [high eff. nat gas forced air] etc... what are some other things I can do that are not likely to violate the owner's property rights [until we can determine whether or not I can buy the home]?
