A new one is what $89, $99, $109, $150 depends on the model and it's 2 minutes to swap out. 

You essentially swap the depreciated asset for a new asset or assets, using the money that you would have paid in taxes to make the new purchase.

    I'd swap out the hardware on the kitchen cabinet fronts. 

The only time you technically don't need an intermediary is when you are actually swapping properties and even then it can be very dicey in how the documentation is handled.3.

We actually fixed **** on our own, swapped parts to fix the stove, cleaned the house, and he still took 3/4 of the damage deposit!

The benefit comes in time saved when swapping out locks between tenants and ease of use from only needing one master key. 

With that said, if the water and sewer and way high, you would likely be swapping that with the maintenance and reserves

Lender's are more cautious (for now) but credit default swaps are still with us, there's been no real change I've at Moody's, Dodd-Frank wasn't quite repealed, but it was seriously weakened last year, and Trump has been busy with deregulation.So I wouldn't be so quick to write it off as a once in lifetime event.

That quote there for swapping out a tub is beyond ridiculous.

And I would swap the ivory GFI for a white one so that you’ve got a matching switch cover and outlet.
