Hey all,Just closed on my first deal and want to replace the fridge and stove in a vacant unit.

That's where I get a washer, dryer, fridge, stove and all the furniture that I need. 

The fridge is older so I'm not sure it's worth spending possibly hundreds of dollars to fix that function, but at the same time, buying a new fridge isn't cheap either.

If it is, you may be eligible to deduct items in your real estate business.Why would you buy a fridge before you close on the house?

I closed on my first duplex two weeks ago and today I got a call from my tenant that the fridge and freezer are not cooling.

. :) lolRefrigerator - Looked on FB Marketplace again, but the price wasn't much different between used and new for a "normal" fridge ... sorry, I don't think a C-class house in a C-class neighborhood needs an A-class fridge with 6 doors, glass panels, or a built-in TV  :) lol I decided not to risk saving $100-200 and potentially get a used "problem" fridge, so I bought new from Lowe's.

That's the washer, dryer, fridge, stove and all the furniture. 

The fridge is GE and is 3 and a half years old.

We would like to remove this drywall, which has an electrical outlet on it, so that we can put a full sized fridge in that corner where the current close is.

And up until this month my experience had always been satisfactory plus.Here is my daughters recap of our experienceOn July 1st got to house had to clean out refrigerator full of food that was expired as far back as July 2021 it took 4 trash bags to clean out the fridge and half the freezer There was no room for us in any cabinets so I put our dry goods on the kitchen counter topI took the kids outside to the back yard and that’s when I noticed an ant infestation on the right side of the house I also attempted to do laundry and as I opened the washer there was a pungent smell of mildew July 2nd went to use the toaster oven to find it unsanitary And completely unusable July 3rd I bought some ant spray and Affrim washing machine cleaner On the night of July 5th I found about 20-30 ants crawling all around the kitchen counter tops and on our food I moved all dry goods into bags having to throw away some of it I then went to kill the remaining ants on the kitchen counter top and when I moved a kitchen appliance I noticed there were ant traps already set July 6th I contacted Airbnb about all the issues of cleanliness and the ants I said I wanted my money back and there response was that my complaint wasn’t within the 72 hour window The host sent an exterminator and a cleaning crew to “deep clean” the house and professionally clean the washing machine July 7th the host set up for the exterminator to come and told me I don’t need to be there and that he will get a neighbor or friend to come wait but apparently he didn’t set that up and so when they came no one was there so they left.
