.🛠️ Smarter Ways to Deal With Dishwashers (If You Keep Them)Install leak sensors: These are cheap ($15–$50) and can shut off water automatically.Use stainless steel pans under them: Helps catch minor drips early before they cause real damage.Choose basic, durable models: Avoid fancy touchscreens and go for the rugged, easy-to-fix ones.Routine checks during inspections: Add dishwasher seals and connections to your annual or semi-annual maintenance checklist.Consider tenant responsibility clauses: In some leases, you can have tenants responsible for minor appliance issues or clogged filters (check with your attorney on what's enforceable in your area).🧰 If You Want to Skip DishwashersYou could totally design kitchens that don't include them:Use the 24" space for extra drawers or pull-out trash/recycling bins (tenants love that).Use it for a built-in microwave or even a rolling cart/pantry insert.Market it as “low-maintenance kitchen design” or “extra storage space”—it’s all about the spin.Short answer: If your target tenant expects it (like young professionals or families), keep it.
