So if a roof lasts 300 months, then I guess that's about $50/mo just for the roof.I've already replaced two fridges and a stove @ $300 each, but I'm guessing I won't have too many more this year.

If the appliances are really old such as fridge and other items if you leave them off for a time they might not work properly again.I find this happens sometimes with really old fridges.

Put in a fridge!

There was nothing in there, no sink, fridge, nothing!

I was the broker for both the acquisition (as selling agent) and disposition (as listing agent) for this transaction.Bought for $45,000 in February of this year.Bought a new fridge and took care of some small repairs.  

Oh, and as for price - I try to spend under $400 for new fridges, stoves, and dishwashers.

I'll get better pics this weekend as I'll be posting this for rent on craigslist next week.Here is an approximate expense list:$18k purchase price$1k closing cost ($450 higher because of sneaky listing agent)$1200 HVAC so far, about $1500 this spring for new AC install$400 paint (5 gal buckets, extra to be used on next house)$400 painter$350 Kitchen-Fridge, range hood, garbage disposer $150 Copper to replace stolen water lines myself$100 Plumber to install water shut off$200 Misc-cleaners, light bulbs, little stuffSo all told I should be around $23,500 into this place.

The brand new fridge is white and the old range is black/white/beige.
