For appraisal purposes, an old dish washer is a lot better than an empty hole with wires sticking out.

It's just one washer and one dryer in a small laundry room the building has in the back.

We have also started adding included washer/dryer into properties and charging accordingly, as it has been another "service" that tenants increasingly don't want to bother with on their own.

The house in Idaho was a 3-bath 4 bedroom and the tenant destroyed every plumbing fixture, the kitchen cabinets, granite counter tops, stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, washer, dryer and the $32,000 cost was with my personally doing the work with one employee.So!!!

I think the lid switch was the only actual piece of plastic on the washer.  

Does the landlord usually provide the washer/dryer and fridge?

I have some apartment complexes that make a killing on washers/dryers but I have others that literally make less than $10 a month and I plan to get rid of them.

New floors, new windows, exterior window trim, fascia, soffit and porch rail paint, new counter tops, kitchen backsplash, new light fixtures, interior paint, new HVAC system, new attic insulation, new water heater, washer and dryer, and finished out the lower bonus room with sheetrock and texture.

Interior Lighting Upgrades, Interior Paint, Added Washer and Dryer and Refrigerator What was the outcome?
