Letting a tenant do their own repairs: good or bad idea?

[Virginia Jones]

I'm in the process of renovating a rental property. Everything is cosmetic except for the kitchen. We have torn everything out so it's down to the studs and subflooring.

A potential tenant contacted me and said he was willing to live in the house as-is and do a lot of the kitchen work himself and then use his own appliances for the kitchen.

I'm thinking this could either go very well or very terribly.

What do you all think??
