This can include being willing to negotiate on price or allowing them to schedule viewings at their convenience.

Washer and dryer are provided as a convenience and landlord is not responsible for maintenance, repairs, replacement or damage caused by these appliances.

Otherwise you are gambling.  

People want convenience, flexibility, amenities, and to be able to handle things on their phones. 

Unless you want to gamble and invest in start-up companies, most other type of investments don't produce much yield. 10% CCR on a $100k investment is only $10k/yr.

Modern, flexible housing with smart TVs and automated marketing, booking, check in/out, locks, and communication...with resident manager living on site and office open during business hours for convenience and added service. 

The stack washer and dryers are expensive and from my experience they don't seem to last too long I don't know what what type of rent you are getting but if can get away without a wash dryer I would do so.Sometimes i might add an appliance as a convenience but I don't assume any liability for repairs.
