A  toilet manufactured before 1980 uses 5-8 gallons a flush.

May as well flush your money down the Wall Street Casino commode.

Unreal.When I was a 20something knucklehead tenant, I used to flush dental floss down the toilet.

Remember sewer wont back up with just a home inspector flushing the toilet a few times.. it backs up once the home is occupied and EVERYONE is using the toilet and washing cloths etc.this is what I would do to protect my investment probably cost you a grand or so.. or just forget it and take what they give you but realize you will probably have some severe cap ex in the future. because these things wont be done prophylactically..  

I had a tenant cause a serious plumbing blockage by flushing tampons down the toilet.

If you do cats-- clearly state and sign off about flushing litter down a toilet, you'd think it's common sense-- it's not!

I will publish the final result as a shareable Google Doc.1) All exterior locks replaced by PMC2) Garage door remotes working properly3) Exterior doors - make sure they open/close properly and don’t stick4) Furnace - purchase filters and replace existing filter5) Smoke Detectors - replace batteries and test6) Towel bars - securely screwed into wall7) Toilet paper holder - securely screwed in8) Toilets - flushing and not leaking9) Sink - ensure they aren’t clogged and faucets aren’t leaking10) Replace 11) Have HVAC system serviced12) Replace dryer lint trap13) Ensure Co2 alarms have new batteries and are working

This is the simplest method, but it also means your tenants are more likely to abuse the utilities by leaving windows open with the heat or A/C running, leaving lights on, ignoring the toilet that constantly flushes on its own, etc.3.

Not saying it is the case but in the past some companies will send in shills to open an account and pump a company with positive reviews to create a (buy in) and frenzy etc.Be careful out there folks unless you have money to flush down the toilet.
