She is saying she has no where else to stay if they get too cold, or to shower/cook. 

Thinking about removing the cabinets overhead the cook top to open up the space even more.Thanks in advance, see photos below!

I think people just like to skim over that part and focus on the pot of gold at the end.

-RP YUP  I live on U tube looking at recipes  I do all the cooking  at least all the dinners.. taking what I learn on U tube and trying to cook it up ! 

And this was on the Canadian border, so long winters and snow.If you can afford to have gas for heat and cooking and hot water (but, I'm talking hot water heaters in each unit, not a central boiler), it would probably be cheaper and more efficient and warmer. 

They'll buy used vehicles instead of new ones, cook at home, etc., etc.The 2% who were a problem for me were gone by the time the crash happened - they were inherited tenants who I ended up getting rid of because they actually prioritized tattoos and vacations over paying their rent. 

Guests, cooking, cleaning, -- all those things lead to increased water usage.

You shall never pour cooking grease or other damaging/obstructing objects down toilets, sinks or drains.

You might want to do a maintenance inspection to see if they are cooking there too.

Furnish it with decent furniture from Cost Plus or Pier 1, and furnish glasses and dishes and pot/pans etc, then try for a family who is transferring in or an upscale or corporate type.
