Appliance problems are one of the top reasons tenants file maintenance requests—and if you’re a landlord or homeowner in Vancouver, you know how costly and time-consuming those repairs can be.
In this episode of Bamboo - Vancouver’s Property Management & Real Estate Podcast, we sit down with a seasoned appliance repair expert to pull back the curtain on what’s really going on behind those malfunctioning machines. From common tenant-caused issues to the best (and worst) brands to invest in, we ask all the questions landlords want answers to—but rarely get the chance to ask.
You’ll learn:
When to repair vs. replace your appliances
How to prevent breakdowns with simple, proactive maintenance
What DIY tips can actually help your tenants help you
Whether smart appliances are worth it in rental units
How to protect yourself during move-in/move-out inspections
Plus, we get into some real-life appliance horror stories and offer actionable strategies to save money, reduce stress, and keep your tenants happy.
Whether you own a single condo or a dozen doors across the Lower Mainland, this episode will change the way you manage your appliances—and possibly your budget.
👉 Tune in now and take your landlord game to the next level.
