Oddest things purchased for your rental property

[Rick Bassett]

Sometimes I reflect on the money that goes out for various repairs on our rental properties that pretty much has no impact to the bottom line, other than keeping the property in service. So in the last 12 months these are some of those kinds of unusual expenses: - replace oil tank $1800 - replace Bilco door wrecked by tenant $950 - replace sewer pipe clogged with roots $2000 - repair neighbors gutters that were destroyed by one of our trees $250 Anyone else have unusual/extenuating expense stories?
