Disposal and Dishwasher question

Jimmy Chao

I am planning the remodel of a House with apt and need your advice. Should I add a disposal and dishwasher during the rehab? I have been told that they are a pain in the *** because renters will clog the drain and I will get the 12 midnight call. Comps in the area do not have them.
I will be adding separate elec. meters and doing a lot of rewiring, so even if I don't add the appliances, I may add the electrical circuits in preparation for a future flip.

What is difference in rent between having a D/W disposal and not? And are they as big a headache as I have heard.

@Jimmy Chao I suggest adding a dishwasher since it could be an issue for some tenants. Then again, I would look at similar units in your area and see if they're providing one, if not, then you might not need one in yours.
