Common culprits include poorly sealed wax rings, dry traps from leaks or non use, and localized clogs that vent sewer back into the room. 

Unfortunately, common spaces that you use as part of your personal space can't be included in the rental portion calculations. 

A quick eye ball measurement tells me the total counter SF including the backsplash is no more than 24 ft of material.

Apparently, the contract I executed included a clause for PMI for the life of the loan.

@Tom ServerI think that the 203k is not a good fit for your scenario because you are buying the property with cash and the 203k is a mortgage loan that includes the purchase price + the rehab costs.

For about $300 including delivery and removal of the old appliance, I can have a replacement used washer/dryer in place for a tenant in 0-3 days.

Is that just the origination fee or does that include other items?

I would put in writing a request for all communication from the property manager including the caseworker name for the tenant and name and phone number of your tenant (if you don't have) and start contacting them directly to find out what's going on if your PM company isn't being responsive.Good luck.

Will use my lender Ryan Deasy at Capital Three Sixty who has already done (or in process of doing) 7 other loans for me including a 3 property portfolio refinance.

It’s part of a bigger process (including a will and docs for you if you need help) and you don’t want to miss a step, so don’t just google this one.
