We actually keep a pantry pretty well stocked with basics:  tea, coffee, cleaning supplies & laundry stuff, cup of noodles, ramen, soup, oatmeal packets, microwave popcorn, spices, bottled water, lemonade mix/crystal light, etc.  

Hauling it away is the bigger task, but cleaning up after a fire is probably even more work.

@Jason Tucker  you need to add in your utilities, common area cleaning, and turnover costs to determine if it makes sense. 

Seems a bit high on the exp ratio near 43% but we do pay a premium for our solid cleaning lady, she also stocks supplies, runs errands and other duties for no "extra" charge.

That might be especially attractive to folks who want to shed the clothes they wear at work to keep their living space more clean.

Few left were broken, never cleaned.

I don't think the fact that prices have gone up 5 years in a row is a good clean indicator that they will continue to do so, if it cashflows today and I can hold it for 20 years inflation should do most of the heavy lifting for me. 

Getting title and getting clean title for properties bought at tax auctions are two different things. 

Do the Airbnb discounting, price a little under market, make sure your cleaning fees are at or below average, looser cancellation policies will all help.
