Do people usually try 5 times before shelving them?

Getting rid of the stove that worked but was missing a knob and the fridge that works but is missing all door shelving.

We'll replace any doors/windows that need it, but if they are in good shape, a coat of paint will make them look new.Again, for my market, everything new, nothing upgraded -- and our properties fly off the shelves at that price point.
