I put solar panels and a tankless water heater to minimize utilities since they are not truly split.

They included:-she was so upset with MW, she didn't want to pay any rent as the furnace wasn't working-she ended up paying $800 for November after the furnace was fixed (we had agreed to this due to the inconvenience of the furnace)-she got COVID and lost her job-tenant missed three months of rent-tenant wanted to stay and agreed to pay $1300/month until she was caught up-tenant pays $1300 in March 2021-tenant pays $1200 in late April 2021 (if I remember the date correctly)-I never see another dime of rent-tenant eventually leaves (I forget if it was the $250 I offered her for the keys or Saunya's threats of evicting her)-tenant has close to a $3,000 water bill that was outstanding!

It's been fine for 4 years and now water has found a new way along the wall.

Landlords should provide necessary appliances (fridge, oven and stovetop, hot water heater).  

For a first investment property though, I’d recommend staying away from foundation and structural issues, or serious water damage.

In WA It also means carbon monoxide and smoke detectors and water heaters are strapped. 

My first thought was pure excitement. 

I am in need of replacing all the window because I noticed that water is getting inside the apartments and is messing up the Interior drywall.

Here are just a few examples: missing handrails, no gutters or broken gutters, exposed subfloor, exposed wiring, insufficient heating elements, dry rot, mold, water damage, rotting or leaking window sills and trim, appliances that don't work, deck and fence in disrepair, wet basements, peeling paint, roof over 20 years old could get called out.Hope this helps and best of luck to you!

Landlord’s Duties (KRS § 383.595)Landlords must supply running water and reasonable amounts of hot water at all times and reasonable heat between October 1 and May 1.
