I will check under the dishwasher next time.

It dawned on me that  I should hire people who specialize in concrete work and not general contracting and have this done, weather permitting. 

The renters were paying 1000 a month until there was a leak behind the dishwasher and whoever was the landlord at the time took it out without replacement and lowered to 750.

@Dawn Anastasi I thought the same thing.

Thanks for your advice Dawn, I have been told the areas of McKinney and Plano are good markets to invest in.

Recently, there was some extensive water damage that came from a busted dishwasher.
