What is it about tenants and light bulbs?
I've only been landlording for about 3 years, so I'm sure this is old news to some of you seasoned veterans. This morning I started turning over a single family that has been occupied for 3 years. In every room, there is at least one light bulb out if not more. One big room is so bad that 7 out of 8 bulbs are burnt out. I have no idea how they actually used the space. Are people actually that lazy that they would rather live in darkness than get up and change a light bulb? I guess I already know the answer to that question but still am amazed.
The kicker is that I supply light bulbs.
The current vacancy opportunity will give me the chance to replace every bulb with a LED.
