More small loads = more waste water. Larger machines are far more efficient, which is a big part of the reason they’re going bigger as they get more efficient. On that same note, running a dishwasher, even when it’s not full, is almost always more water efficient than hand washing. Unless you have some stipulation that they must use your appliances, you probably don’t have much to stand on as far as what they use, especially since it’s based on a nice, but inaccurate, theory. Obviously there is still the issue of the lock and questionable location of your appliances, but I believe that’s been addressed nicely.

@Marco Morkous the main thing to know about Birmingham is that it varies wildly from street to street. A very rough street will be just one block over from a desirable one, and it’s all very spotty. I would definitely personally investigate a neighborhood before seriously considering any property because even very close comps could be wildly inaccurate.
