Appliance repair person lined up, warranties don't work fast enough for STRs, you need to pay to have an appliance fixed or replaced right away.

I believe my home can benefit from minor renovations in the basement bathroom, new laundry appliances, painting, and replacing railings on the home's exterior.  2. 

More of the same! Good news! 

How to you properly charge the tenants seasonal usage (high in winter/low in summer) and when there's not equal gas appliances between the units? 

Now using the de minimis/routine maintenance safe harbors instead of bonus depreciation for appliances, carpet and the like.

A 1031 exchanged property can include 1245 components that are considered part of the "real property" for 1031 purposes if they're affixed to the building (and also up to 15% of the value can be personal property under an IRS rule, such as appliances). 

I don't expect a tenant to wait weeks for appliances to be repaired or replaced.
