Original 1961 stove and stuff.

I spent over $6,000 legalizing it, in minor rehab (removing the bathtub, fridge, and stove), filing plans, getting permits, paying an expeditor.

I use semigloss in bathrooms and the kitchen wall behind the stove because it cleans easier, but it's too shiny everywhere else and really highlights imperfection.

@Melissa VillegasIn that situation, I might also try to repair the existing stove to buy you that four weeks.

Be firm on the silly stuff while thanking her for keeping a close watch on the property and letting her know its added to the monthly list.Let her know you can send someone over to replace the knob on her stove but that it will be a charge to her for their time--I suspect it will suddenly get much easier for her to figure it out.Remember, tenants new to the place and new to you are worried about their security deposit and being charged with damage, so I am not sure she qualifies as 'needy' just yet, cat holes notwithstanding.

In stoves I usually go one up from the cheap ones.

Wood burning stove 🤦‍♂️.

That included tear-out of the old kitchen, rewiring & plumbing, cabinets, countertops, sink, faucet, wall tile, stove, hood and dishwasher.

On my way to closing a few weeks later (I always do my final walk through on my way to closing), we did the final walk through and the stove and refrigerator were missing despite the fact that they were written into the contract.

That's a washer, dryer, fridge, stove, 3 beds and furniture for the rest of the house.
