The very inappropriately named "Housing Assistance Tax Act" (seriously, I'm from the government I'm here to help?????) 

This is not a means for you to gain control of the funds for personal usage.  

We purchased that product and after the first usage it was gone.

Those were built during the peak usage period for asbestos (drywall mud/texture, sheet vinyl flooring, vinyl floor tile, various mastics, stucco, HVAC ducts, etc.), so have you factored that into your calculations?

I just wanted to clarify that so nobody used that phrase inappropriately :)3) Option Terminated for Tenant's DefaultThis is another matter that varies by jurisdiction, but there are jurisdictions in which the seller can prevent the tenant from exercising the option if the tenant is in default on the lease.

Let them know you'd be happy to provide them a W/D for the extra $25/mo but that you are going to pass to them the increase in water usage.  

We plan on keeping personal usage to 14 days or less.We will be looking for a beach house next.

Keeping credit cards at 10% usage is a good tip I was given

Or just talks inappropriately during your walkthrough?

I'm purchasing a 3 story office building (37k sqft total) in the Orlando Fl area and my electric bill is $80k annually, with the monthly usage ranging between 48,000 kWh to 65,000 kWh.
