When we got around the back of the house there was an ATM machine lying on the ground that had been pried open and left there the night before.

Also Trump’s policies specifically targeted certain foriegn produced appliances like washing machines which are up 20% in price since January.

@Ryan Murdock  I don't know the history, but I'd suspect it's people using their homes as an ATM machine.  

I am pretty focused on sustainability so my updates are going to include a lot of LED lighting and water saving measures, going to be one big green money-making machine here soon.Tenants on the other side came with the purchase so haven't gotten to test out the ultimate guide on tenant screening yet. 

Hi Cassandra,The make washing machine drip pans that vent outside.They come in both metal and plastic.Good Luck!

@Bennett Schwartz from their web site: The National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM®) provides resources for residential property management professionals who desire to learn, grow, and build relationships.They have a unique code of ethics that pertains to property management.

It sounds like you've already made up your mind with sticking to the LTR market, and if you're cash flowing with processes already in place, I'd just recommend continuing that machine!

The most common expensive things are water damage from washing machine hose breaks and leaks, facets that fail, clogged toilets flooding, sinks backing up and things like that.

I also had a vending company using some warehouse space to store vending machines.
