The mentality in these regions is that the property is to be "move-in-ready" with everything needed provided from day one.As mentioned before, even if you were to provide such appliances the tenant can be held responsible for service calls and this language should be included in the lease. 

This is how I mentally and actually protect against downside risk.

Not a single late rent payment yet.Also, again, I see a lot of broke mentality in here.

I’m so excited for my first BRRRR in the near future, and mentally ready to learn by making mistakes.

Hello,I am two weeks out from closing on a new property in ColoradoMy real estate agent just called me and told me that the sellers wanted to disclose something fairly odd...Apparently, one of the sellers is a heavy Adderall user (a schedule 2 prescription drug similar to meth).She stays awake for 2-3 days at a time and gets extremely paranoid and is currently convinced there are bugs all over the house and someone is hacking her computer.My worry is, that much like someone who is addicted to opiates may turn to heroin when they run out of a prescription, that someone addicted to amphetamines would turn to meth.When I did my due diligence, I was unaware of the mental state of the owner, but I did not notice any bad smells, and the place was fairly clean, so I don't think she was cooking meth.My due diligence period is over, so I don't think I can get a professional to to a test, but I have seen that there are test kits online.
