They've got three cats and two litter boxes, and the entire unit stinks of litter -- they've also got food and dishes everywhere, and huge piles of dirty clothes everywhere.This is a nice, fairly high-end apartment in a not-so-great area, it should stand out as being nicer than the surrounding apartments.

What wasn't easy was getting them to dish out money to hire an Attorney to do a commercial work-out with no guarantees...especially they were looking at 10K for just the retainer.

Question is this legal to only offer your tangents say only "DISH" if the local brand give me incentive to do so?. 

Typically you want to wash the dishes and put them directly into the dishwasher .. its a real pain and bad design with that set-up.

The appliances being mismatched (black range/SS fridge/missing dishwasher-NO ONE buying a house wants to also buy a dish rack!)

If it were me, knowing that I'm asked to dish out 25k, from someone I know little about is quite a commitment.

I also like asking what incentives were dished out to get the property leased up (ie free rent, move in specials).

Get things that either wear hard (non-teflon cookware, pleather couch) or can be cheaply switched out (slip cover couch, Ikea duvet covers, open stock dishes to replace damaged ones and keep the set matched) if they get thrashed.A penalty-based cleaning fee (instead of a flat fee) will leave your guests feeling, well, penalized after their stay.  

Here the magic number is four;4) Rooming houses work best when you have a "trusted" resident who can act as Den Mother to the house: ensure the garbage gets taken out, dishes get done, etc.
