Has anyone added the washer dryer set to a unit and how did it go? --24.22.xx.xxx

Yes. We started putting in upstairs units W/D about 2 yrs ago. It makes the unit more attractive. --172.56.x.xx

You can get by without a **stove** more easily. As someone who has lived without a real stove since 1997 in two different houses, I do know from whence I speak on this one. And I'm the holiday host of the family...I easily can cook dinners and make breakfast for 12 without a stove, but I can't offer beds and provide towels without a washer. --173.18.xx.xxx

I used to provide them for free when I was still wet behind the ears. They’re maintenance items and you’ll be paying a repair person to fix them if you don’t know how to yourself. I now provide them as an optional amenity for $55/mo. --172.56.xxx.xxx

I offer them as an add-on for $40-80/mo depending upon whether I have a set in stock, can come up with a good used set, or if I have to buy a new set. I want the tenant to pay for it within the first 12 months or so. --70.166.xxx.xx

So what happens if the tenant stops paying their monthly amenity fee? Do you just classify it as non payment of rent or do you cut off the water/electricity to those items? --64.246.xxx.xx

There is no amenity fee. It's rent. If the rent is normally $1200 and they ask to add a washer and dryer, the rent is $1240 if I have a set on hand, more if I don't. It's not $1200 rent and $40 washer/dryer. --68.1.xxx.xxx

I’m with Tim. I don’t do “amenity fees” I set my rent & include the “amenities” a big selling point. --146.75.xxx.xxx

Lease states as needed. If they get their own I take mine away, but no price difference. --195.242.xxx.xxx
