Electricity and propane together are shortly going to be ~ $570 a month once the $150 a month propane hike goes into effect.

OP, make sure you also look at the property tax history on Zillow/Redfin for every house you're interested in. NH has the third highest property tax rate in the US.

That honestly isn’t as bad as I was thinking. I had electric heat in my first apartment, and my one bedroom cost me ~$500 every winter in 2020. I was expecting everyone to tell me it was like 1-2k 😂 Yeah I’ve definitely looked into property taxes. All my theoretical mortgage budgets have a 2.23% tax rate. Im finding that that’s way over what it pt is normally. I found that number online so idk how accurate it is but it gives me a good enough estimate
