I upgraded mine over time so I now have all 32-55 inch flat screens in all apartments.  3 years ago when I got ride of the 5-6 old box stile TV's I took them down to Good Will. 

Find a great tenant and give them some options - could build some good will right off the bat. 

Was it just goodwill towards her parents?

Most of our investors have said not to worry about the $15 - $30, but I like them to feel that they are getting the most out of the deal and I think it creates goodwill.2c) Ask your lender what they prefer.

Depreciation is the name for physical assets and amortization is the name for intangible assets like goodwill.  

Property management platform Appfoliio, which is very good, will automate this for you and automatically calculate and bill the tenants, and they can pay electronically.  

Your first tenant was leaving according to you with notice before the other tenant moved in so they were going anyways for other reasons.To me once a month isn't excessive and as the other tenant I would just simply go do something else that day as a good will gesture.

Try Goodwill or some used appliance stores or one of the Veteran's organizations.

You are going to need each other's cooperation with repairs over time and this would be a great goodwill gesture on your partThere is no downside for you as in Texas the tax value is no indication of market value and does not effect the market value.

All dishes, silverware, pots/pans, etc, came from Goodwill for pennies.
