Washer dryer hookups?

Who is responsible when Tennant decides to purchase a dryer and there are no hookups in the basement for it?

If he bought a dishwasher, would you take out a cabinet and install it for him?

If he buys a bed that won't fit through the 32" door, will you install a 36" door for him?

If he buys a suede jacket, will you follow him around with an umbrella so he doesn't get any rain on it?

You offered him a rental and he accepted it without washer/dryer hookups. If he didn't investigate to see if hookups existed, that's his fault. You would only be obligated to pay for installation if you had falsely advertised that hookups existed when they actually didn't.

Make a written agreement with him that he can have licensed, insured professionals install the hookups at his expense and that the hookups become your property when he leaves. Otherwise, he can sell his units and use the proceeds to pay for the laundromat.
