Oh I forgot to mention that I used to rent an apartment not too long ago that charged you extra to use the washer/dryer. I guess it is possible to buy a regular washer/dryer, and charge an extra $25 a month to use them. I paid an extra $40 a month to use them, but it was worth it to me. Of course if you are not around to police it, it could be an issue. 

Just for two units? 

A decent commercial quality washer ( that is normal sized - not like in a laundry mat ) will cost you anywhere between $800-$1,200. But if only for two units, you might be able to pick them up off craig's list. Lowe's has some as well. 

We have 2 washers and 2 dryers in a 10 unit and make about $500 over 2 months. We pay for water. It serves us well.

My concern is what is the tenants expectations of 'finishing' the basement? Are they going to expect painted walls, new flooring, shelving in the laundry area, etc? I personally, wouldn't do it. Or, be very clear as to what is being done.

What about if a prospective tenant says they have an emotional support animal, ( and let's just assume they have the proper certifications/documentation for that animal. )  and then they say they also have a cat or another dog as well, but they do not have any certifications/documentation. 

Are you still discriminating against them if you deny their application because of the additional pets?

I am a dog lover and would do anything for my two boys, however, I just can't imagine claiming them as therapy pets, emotional support pets, or a service pet just to get what I wanted. All of these bogus 'certifications' are making it harder for people who truly need a service pet to go about their daily lives. They are doing a great disservice to those who need help. 

I might get some grief over this but I believe that a true service pet is trained to do a specific, or specific things, to help its owner. They are always trained and/or well behaved. 

I was at hotel recently and I saw a couple with a husky going through the lobby. I said to the front desk clerk, "I thought animals were not allowed?" She replied back with "well, its a service animal so we had to allow it." Fair enough I thought. 

I head out to my car and I see this 'service dog' off its leash running around the parking area while the owners are packing the car. They have to call and coax their dog back to them. This took several minutes while the dog continued to run around.

This is NOT a service dog. Period.

Okay, I will get off my soapbox now :-)

i get the same thing. if you find a way let me know! LOL

we got a call once at 3AM during a storm. Tenant had to leave for work and wanted us to come plow the parking area for him. 

well, I do have small units. Under 700 sq. ft. So for me, it works great.
