They were, but I kinda looked for that on purpose. Not knowing what I was going to end up buying or what color the appliances would be or the space available when I eventually bought, I didn’t want to buy a fridge as a renter. I didn’t feel like moving a washer and dryer, which in the end would have been three times in three years. Keep that in mind if you rent it out, it’s more marketable if you include the fridge and W/D and they tend to damage floors/walls taking it in and out, but then again it’s another thing you have to fix because they do break and if you have a really low end one that may turn some people off (my second place had a small, low end fridge that I barely got by with and I’m sure that turned off families because they included in the lease that you couldn’t put in your own for fear of damaging the wood floors).
