Repair estimates for investment property in Augusta, Maine

Daniel Ortega
Posted

Hello BP,

We are currently going through negotiations for an out of state rental property in Augusta, Maine. Since this is our first investment property and we're out of state, we'd like some advice on general estimates or contractors who can come out and check out the place if possible! We've come across some items that will require repairs such as:

  • Wood rot, couple places but especially one of the outside window frames, needs to be repaired ASAP
  • Mold Removal in the Attic, seemed to have a significant amount in there
  • Radon mitigation, it was 4.4 which the action level is 4.0 Pci/L
  • We have one water heater not functional and another one that may need replacing soon
  • Repointing some of the foundation, there are cracks along the edges, especially near the gutter systems so we would like to get that fixed

If anyone has any general advice/recommendations on any of the items or if there are contractors that are willing to give estimates, we greatly appreciate it! Thank you!
