Question for Experienced Landlords

[Account Closed]

Hi All,

 I have a question for all the experienced landlords on the site. When replacing stove, refrigerator and things of that nature for your rental property do you try to save as much as possible  or do you spend a little extra in hopes the tenant takes car of it making it last longer?

@Bryan N. we have a good relationship with a local appliance store. We get there scratch and dent special and take 3-5 warranties with them. I also track the serial numbers with photos, and have the store do the same. It helps they buy used appliances locally so they check against our numbers, we have gotten a few back this way, lol
