I am quite chaffed with the position I find myself in currently as I may owe on two properties with rising costs I have seriously cut back on any spending. The one property is hopefully being sold soon even though it is not a train smash as that mortgage ends next year in March. The one area I did spend was renting the appliances instead of replacing them due to constant load shedding knowing they would break. Why don't people think ahead planning for a worst case scenario as i think many have had such a cushy life they don't know what a genuine struggle really is and need to grow up. Maybe after this they will appreciate what they have and change what matters most in life.
So when you are renting, they just replace the dead machine? That is interesting! Thankfully not an issue here... yet.
Good luck selling the property and hopefully you get a great price. :)
Yes they have to fix or replace at their cost. It goes against what we know by owning it outright being cheaper but we have had so many appliances break it actually works out being the best option currently. Most appliances only last a few years before they need some work which is never cheap and virtually the cost of a new one anyway. Hopefully it will sell quickly to a business due to it's location and what it offers.
