you don't have a hard decision making criteria.So run your numbers first, "dry".

Hello, I recently found a house with a fair price but it comes with rotting on boards on top deck and water pool (improper drainage) in front on the sidewalk.

Simply, REget's so expensive that demand dries up.

Imagine having to move out your tenants (who are angry and shell shocked because all of their personal belongings were destroyed), rip out your flooring and drywall, dry out for a week or two, and put everything back together - All while dealing with a remediation company who has 15 other jobs on the go at the same time as yours, and a GC who also has 15 other jobs on the go at the same time as yours, and dealing with your insurance adjuster (remember, the whole neighborhood got flooded, not just you).

If it is an unopened canned/dry good (besides spices, most people appreciate the spice selection whether opened or not) it can stay, otherwise it gets tossed.

He stepped off the tub to let the spackle dry and return. 

IE making sure the kitchen has can openers and a dish drying rack, picking up the mailbox key from the post office, assembling night stands, etc.Most of us manage remotely just fine, but most of us also visit our property once before going live to get it all setup. 

It is a dry heat and much more ‘even’ than forced air

That wasn't an easy task as there was no longer any door frame, it had rotted away by that point.

The property has a few broken windows with boards up over them, an interior door off the hinges, rot on the bottom of the cabinet under the kitchen sink from a leak some time ago, water seeping up from the concrete in a back room making the carpet damp if it rains a lot.
