apartment amenities..

[DL Martin]

I just finished reading Buy and Rent Forclosures byJoseph Neilson.

Mr Neilson advocates stripping houses of central air, garbage disposals and many other amenities in order to eliminate maintenance costs.

My question is, wouldnt garbage disposals cut down on clogged drain service calls?

In 15 years of owning apartments, I can count on one hand the number of times a tenant has called me with a disposal issue. Further, to replace during an apartment rehab costs only $79 and 15 minutes of labor.

Your thoughts?
