Alpha Sigma Phi at Iowa State moving out chapter facility

Sometimes, but not always. And many times that stuff can easily be changed out - letters come off and new ones go on.

It's when the letters/badge/etc go into concrete that it becomes costly to change.

My question after reading the article is this: Just because you move out doesn't mean your bills stop. I'd assume the alumni core has money to float the house until they can lease it or sell it.

I can't see many bills if there is no occupancy.

Even empty, wouldn't there be ---
propery taxes,
security guard / service (assuming that the house corporation has even a grain of common sense),
heat,
sidewalk maintenance, snow / ice removal to avert slip-and fall lawsuits,
a liitle electricity,
a little water,
insurance,
etc.?
