For individually metered water in my area, especially with washers and dryers, I value it at about $25K-40K, depending on the property, for a 4plex.

Maybe collecting the rent in the future, but with just 4 tenants its not that big of a deal now.I also go get the quarters out of the washer and dryer every month.

Obviously they will most likely just shut off the valves unless you remove or cut the washer down a bit to not allow the facets to shut all the way?

I provide all kitchen appliances and a washer & dryer.

One example is, providing a refrigerator and washer which caused mayhem in the home in under 15 days of being in the rental.

Since this is the first one we fixed, we consider anything we bought as an expense for this house even if it could be used for the next one, such as the pressure washer.

That was her secret sauce and it worked very well.  

. • High levels of unit features and amenities such as garages, in-unit washer/dryers, pools, spas, exercise gyms, the latest technology, etc• May have less cash flow than B or C properties but greater appreciation potential.Class B Properties: • Typically 10-20 years old (Little or no deferred maintenance)• Occupied by both white and blue collar workers • 80% to 120% of an areas median income (the middle class apartment dweller)• Usually renters by necessity, not by choice (can’t buy for one reason or another)• Tend not to move as often as other tenants.• Generally command average rental rates • Property finishes are fair to good and systems are adequate• Includes former Class A apartments that are 10+ years old• Complexes are well maintained• Properties will have decent cash flow and decent appreciation potential.Class C Properties: • Built within the last 21-30 years (varying degrees of deferred maintenance).• Typically occupied by blue collar workers and even some Section 8 tenants• Usually have below market rental rates• The projects have fewer amenities• Renters by necessity. • Properties will have decent cash flow but appreciation has to be created with physical improvements (remodeling, aka rehabbing or repositioning)."

You cannot catch your bathwater or washer water and use it to water your garden.

David, It was her responsiblity to either have the fee put on the hud or to double close.
