When I did so, she told me I was supposed to have scheduled the walk-through and when I told her I didn't have time that day to do so, she told me it wasn't required, I could just leave the keys (and parking passes and laundry card) and a forwarding address to send me the security deposit refund.

Utilities were included and also household supplies (paper products, laundry products, cleaning supplies).

Is there any reason for tenants to use the basement; laundry, storage?

Very few rentals close by (at least for now, in winter), but desirable location.We will do some updating no matter what:New laminate floor in kitchen/hallSiding needs replacing (have some insurance $ for that)Fresh paintNeeds new windows (maybe).Needs a bunch of concrete work (garage floor, driveway, stoop, walk to door).With those improvements we should be able to get at least $1000/mo.A room addition to add a large ensuite Bedroom/bath, and a laundry room to get the washer, dryer out of the garage, the bid came in at 59000 (This includes the siding).  

Some cleaning services also have  their own laundry facility services, so they don't have to wash sheets and towels in your unit.

Like @Natalie Kolodij mentioned, the Washing Real Estate Investor's Club is a great place to meet other investors and build your toolbox.  

I’m looking at hooking up a washing machine in my house.

We added on site laundry and redid all the landscaping.Doing all this allowed us to increase rents 30%+, which means the three rented units cover the PITI for the property so we have no housing costs.

You don't need to click any buttons or read, you just listen to them in your car, while you are cooking dinner, doing laundry, ... etc.
