Also, there will probably need to be an independent wire run for the microwave, dishwasher and garbage disposal.

Originally posted by @Dawn Brenengen:@Timothy Hero I have 10 rentals, one of which I am currently renovating to sell. 

I’ve replaced the stove, dishwasher, various repairs over the years whenever the prop mgr says the house needs something since I never want to be a slum landlord.

Most in my state cover rentals no problem, but they are a complete pain in the neck for owners nad tenants, they deny claims frequently, and use the cheapest vendors who will push back these repairs of others come up.example 1: Old republic Home warranty: Owner had a dishwasher that no longer cleaned. 

Maybe the property is leased without a dishwasher too, should that be provided by law next year? 

and amenities provided (i.e. washer/dryer, dishwasher, central air, etc.- Proximity to public transportation to NYC.- Block and neighborhood safety and amenities (can they walk to a grocery store, for example).I don't think you have to limit yourself to "white collar". 

None of my units have dishwashers.

Dishwasher (if applicable): Run empty dishwasher with dishwasher liquid.

The question: What are the best ways to water proof the house especially against major damage from water heater, fridge, dish washer, washing machine, plumbing leaks?
