I found a RTA cabinet supplier through which I can replace all the cabinets with solid construction/softclose/dovetail etc for $2000 with tax, delivery, etc. included.

Grocery workers, bottom-rung health-care, delivery workers, are all mostly in C'class housing.

All you need is delivery confirmation.

And if the tenants intake the delivery you know they will claim no responsibility if something breaks or it doesn't work upon opening.Do I want a warranty claim yes, I do. 

We gave one tenant work (deferred landscaping), and another we did an emergency delivery of food and pet food (partner abandoned her at onset pandemic, suffered major depresssive episode and job loss), but the fact is, everyone is paying. 

Cost more for delivery and installation than the counter.

good questions about the jobless people... if that's the target market for your rentals (bus drivers, delivery people), i guess it would affect you.regarding the first theory.... i dont think it's the driving that stresses people out. it's the number of hrs and amount of time they spend in the car that drives them crazy. i am willing to drive no more than 30 mins. after that point, i feel like i am missing on life (kids, looking at properties, balancing accounts/making offers, etc, etc). i can't believe people in the big cities drive hrs to go to work.. 

Delivery and installation are each optional add on services with purchase.

Even if I had to replace the appliances every year I would include them, because a lot of tenants are dumber than a box of rocks and would destroy the house installing/removing appliances themselves rather than paying a qualified delivery/installation service.

My delivery has never been more than 5 working days. i also offer 15% premium when i need it within 48 hrs.
