But but unfortunately it is inevitable if you become a landlord that some bad things are bound to happen at some stage whether it be a burst pipe or a drug dealing tenant.

I've got the same sort of situation as the poster, a 6 unit apartment with no W/D hookups in the units except for one.We have looked at putting W/Ds in each unit, which will run me around $5k, and get about $15-25/mo extra in income, but then there's expense involved for each unit.We also looked at building a small laundry center on, which would run something like $4,000 including coin-op washers and dryers.The coin-ops have definately come out ahead of giving people keys, becuase there's a good chance they'll do laundry for relatives, this way I have the chance of getting people OUTSIDE my complex to do their laundry (There's no laundry mat in town) so there's a definate possibility.Sears I found sells the coin-op washers and dryers, about $650/each which isn't bad at all.

I have called a couple of times seeking information, and if I ask more than one question the consultant immediately steers me to the education center to watch videos.

It was a refurbished fridge from a local appliance center that we've used before. 

Have you tried staging one of the rooms to look really nice and homey and posting pics of that one in the ad to attract better tenants?
