I guess the stove and refrigerator were moved to the other side.  

I'm invest in b+ areas so when I buy they are usually already there but I do have 1 house with a white stove and it bothers me however there wasn't enough cash left in the budget after closing to replace it. 

I hauled wood for the stove, hauled snow to melt fir water, dug outhouses every few years, changed the propane tanks as needed so we could have lights.

Replace the stove or a/c what not.. not much 

And then after I had a firm, every possible detail covered, cost firmly in hand - I would double it before proceeding.Something which can be a real plus is installing a large fireplace or wood stove into the rehab project.  

You can have a separate living quarters and it not be technically a duplex; only it both have stoves can it be a true duplex (i.e. at some point a licensed electrician had to get a permit to install 220v for the stove).   

Given that it's the stove and dishwasher that are at issue, perhaps a gift card to a local restaurant would make sense?

@Joe Mende Did you get the contact info for Frank's installers?  

One in particular was paying $550/mo we bought them a new stove & upgraded the furnace as their heating costs were very high.We raised it to $820/mo & not a squawk they even offered to pay $1200 cash if we would add central air to the new HVAC so we took them up on it.Our 6-plex was gradually rehabbed & brought up to above mkt rents quickly with new tenants.
