EP. 1503 The Appliance Trap Every Landlord Should Avoid

⚡ Appliance traps landlords fall into ⚡ Dishwashers. Ovens. Washing machines. Exhaust fans. Do you repair… or replace? 🤔 Here’s the truth ⬇️ ✔️ Call-out + repair = $140–$200 just to diagnose (often ½ the cost of a new unit) ✔️ Then wait weeks for parts = unhappy tenants 😡 ✔️ If you’ve had 8–10 years from an appliance, you’ve done well ✔️ Replace = new warranty + happy tenants + tax-deductible 📝 👉 Stick to cheap, standard sizes. Don’t fall in love with your Miele or Smeg in an investment property. 💡 Pro tip: Bosch dishwashers with dials not buttons last longer.
