I took out my bath tub, range in the kitchen.

However, I am not a huge fan of doing that since 1) I would have to buy and install a new bathtub and 2) it wouldn't be original to the historic home. 

My plumber has to cut a hole in the ceiling to fix a leak in the bathtub plumbing, so I needed someone to patch up the hole in the 2nd floor bathroom for the 2nd floor tenant.

it is looking like I may have to tile the bathtub as well. 

Hello Bigger Pockets Community,As both an investor in the multi-family space, and as a renter looking at potential apartments, it was surprising to visit a new "luxury" apartment complex in bustling Oakland and see that all of the units (studios, 1 bdrm, and 2 bdrms) had only showers, no bath tubs.

I purchased the property in august 2019, home inspection was good and pretty much everything wrong with the building(multifamily) was taken care of and fixed by licensed contractors before closing as part of the deal.I just evicted a tenant for non payment of rent, who decided to move out right before he was served by the sheriff, he changed the locks to make sure I couldnt get in, stopped paying rent, then I started hearing sawing, hammering and power tools and oh boy.. he removed walls, railings and insulation from the barn attic storage area he had that's attached to the apartment, he apparently replaced the bathtub surround and put a new one on but didn't seal it to the tub... and continued to take showers, I just had new tenants move into the apartment below this trouble apartment and there is now wet ceiling in there kitchen right under this said bathtub...this was not damaged or wet when I showed them the apartment which was the week he was moving, I heard him just running water for a couple hours one day, Im sure he did this intentionally to cause damage.

Not to say you couldn't sell it and make a profit, but not many adults want to share their bathroom with toddlers who are peeing all over the walls and bathtub, they want a private space.

For example, if they leave the bathtub running and the water ruins their record collection, their insurance ought to cover that.

I'm thinking it's better to have a bigger, more open kitchen and sacrifice having a bathtub in the bathroom and instead just do a nice standup shower. 

Long story short... our tenant has been in his unit for approximately four months and has reported a greywater backup every month in the septic system (while running laundry, backup occurs in bathtub).We've spent over $6,000 for the sewage company to bring cameras out (4x) and clear clogs.
