The disadvantages are that once the money is out to you and the loan is closed, you start paying interest right away so hopefully you have a purpose or goal for that money right away.Let me know if you have any additional questions.

There are advantages and disadvantages to each option.

You also have the disadvantage of being new, a big part to this game is knowing people and networking, that is something that takes a lot of time and effort to get.

If all your competitioin is offering it and you aren't guess what, that puts you at a disadvantage. where I live all of the close by apartments have wash/dry and cahrge $40/month more for them. they use cheapest brand, no bells and whistles machines. never put a front loader in a rental, the filter gets clogged up with coins and the rubber door seal gets moldy and also tears after a few years. 

Disadvantage is cost and having to deal with it.2.

I think using the term "discount" puts you at a disadvantage.
