Adding gas dryer line. Should I have to pay?

[Account Closed]

I just had new tenants move in to a unit. The unit has washer and dryer hook ups. The tenants brought their washer and dryer in and realized the hook ups are for an electric dryer and they have a gas one. It costs $250 to get a gas line over to the dryer and its being installed now. Should I have to pay for this?

I would agree that when the tenants viewed the property, you showed it with an electric hookup. They should have checked that out.

Perhaps you could say that although it was their mistake, you are willing to go 1/2 in on that. Some houses have both, so that it benefits the tenant.
