@Mario Bellavia thank you so much, don’t know too much about Stamford but how does your number looks as a purchase price and rents?

@Andres Bernal, check the downsides I mentioned of installing in-unit washer/dryer. What type of area is your building? Do you have vacancy issues because other landlords in your area offer washer/dryer? If not, then don't do anything. It's rental property. I'm often shocked at the number of people in Chicago who will pay $1,800 a month for a 1 ba apartment with no upgrades and window air conditioning. But those areas are highly desirable for other reasons. no need to do upgrades. Check your surroundings before making any investments.

I have a 3 family and condos 

In the mutlifamily I installed a coin laundry washer and dryer for all the 3 units and it has work so far.

However the first and second unit  has their own hookup but not the third unit.

I’ll do my research

Thank you!

Hi guys, I’m a investor with a few units ( multifamily mostly) in Connecticut. My rentals are in the new haven county and I’m wondering what kind of upgrades you guys are utilizing to increase rent or to maintain a good rental. This upgrades either stainless steel appliances, expanding rooms, adding extras like coin laundry machine or parking. Any input would be great! If you have rentals in Hamden, West Haven, Orange, Milford, east haven, new haven, Fairfield county, Bridgeport, Wallingford, north haven, Hartford please comment. Thank you!
