curious why you're paying for it and not the landlord...i assume there's "nothing wrong" with the old one you just want one a little better?
Landlord doesn't live in town, nor anywhere near. Just easier for me to pay for it and then subtract the total from the rent. As for the tank, there's nothing outwardly wrong with it, but literally three minutes into a shower the hot water disappears.

I do actually have a instant heat, tankless unit at my other place but I find that the water isn't necessarily as hot as I'd like it to be... though that could simply be a setting on the unit I haven't seen yet.

Guess I'm hitting up Home Depot today once my painkillers finally kick in.
