Should I convert my home to gas heating from oil?
I live on a 12 acre retired farm in Indiana that I'm looking to offload. We use oil for heating and I've heard buyers don't like that. Should I convert to propane before listing? thanks

You are correct about oil for heating a home. My advise would be to convert to gas. Some states have grants for individuals to help out with these situations. EPA also will be involved with your soil content, just so you are aware.

If you plan to stay long-term, gas can lower costs and improve efficiency. If you’re selling soon, the conversion cost may not pay off—maintenance records and safe operation may be enough.
