As the person in charge of the estate you will need to satisfy and discharge the debts by either negotiating with the creditors (both secured and unsecured), liquidating (selling) estate assets, borrowing or using your own resources (savings, selling assets or borrowing on your own property).As the sole bene (another hat you wear) you are destined to own whatever remains.

The sump pump discharge looked fine and was dumping about 10ft off the walls. 

An earlier post mentioned the fine for discharging refrigerant into the atmosphere; although you might not get caught, see link for some examples of enforcement:https://www.epa.gov/ozone-layer-protection/enforce...And intimate knowledge of electronics is not the same as intimate knowledge of the NEC - if you said you had the latter, doing your own wiring and breaker panel work would certainly make more sense.Where I am located, the electric power company will not turn power on for a building that had service disconnected for some long time without first having an independent third party electrical inspector sending paperwork to the electric company stating that the service line and existing meter and panel is safe - so this might be something you would want to become familiar with in case your electric company has a similar requirement.

@Engelo Rumora  Happy to help but I draw the line letting newbie pilots scare the @### out of me.Get your basic training In a Cessna 172... my plane is a Cirrus SR 22  which is a hot rod and where you want to end up.. that's the only plane I would fly long distance over water.. ( that is single engine)  Google the  Cirrus parachute pull off of Maui on U Tube or how ever you guys get on those sites its totally cool to watch.. ferry pilot had his gas tank fail and he ran out of gas 150 miles from Maui.. not to worry pull the chute land softly  cruise ship near by sends tender and your eating lobster for dinner.. do that in a plane without a chute and your lobster food.

, and then wreaking havoc on the Public Record by recording the wrong discharges or partial releases over the wrong properties.... 

Get realistic... this way you don't fail and end up just chucking real estate because you could not land a million plus deal right out of the chute .Wholesaling the way most do it in FLA is illegal..

Dehumidifier is good if you have a place for the water to automatically discharge. 

@Shez B.If the OP refinances the home after he has reached >20% equity, then he could discharge the high-ration mortgage and place a standard mortgage in its place.

Next need a list by tenant of any chemicals and how they are discharged by air, water, etc and their containment.  

If so, you can provide a payoff letter and let them know that you would OR pay the escrow company to record discharge of mortgage; after payoff has been received.Generally, it is not a good idea to send the orginal; that is a big risk.
