Refrigerator doesn't fit!
Just got a renter in a newly acquired rental. They texted me saying their refrigerator doesn't fit in the designated space. I don't have the details yet on the dimensions of the space or their fridge. We'll do our property condition walk through this evening.
What would you suggest if 1) the space isn't wide enough for a standard fridge (google says 30-36") or 2) their fridge is wider than normal?
Per the lease they accepted as-is so I'm not obligated, however I want to do the right thing and don't want to run into the issue again with a future renter if it's my problem.
There is a mini wall and doorframe on the right side, when facing the fridge, and kitchen cabinets to the left with new granite countertops. Possible that the lip of the countertops cut into the space. Will determine that this evening.
