Definitely install backup flaps and valves for all floor drains and the main line.

Being a subject matter expert, not because you are forcing it, but because you simply ARE, shows through, and investors are rightfully attracted to that. 

Hey @Stephanie Medina, so it sounds like this is the sewer main line right?

And that is one of the main things I wanted to get RentRedi for in the first place. 

The key is picking the right neighborhood—some areas appreciate well and attract great tenants, while others may have higher cash flow but come with management challenges.I work with out-of-state investors and can help you analyze deals, connect you with the right property managers, and build a solid investment strategy here.

I Julia, I work the south side mainly.  

@Rich Davis "The difference is I'm in Maine, where the evictions laws lean landlord friendly.

It also matters where the home is located, and what the weather, type of tenants it attracts/has been attracting, etc. other factors are.

I live in Portland  Maine , I am new to real estate investing and looking to connect with any local investor.. thank you.

The main differences (besides rates/underwriting guidelines) is what you can include in your renovation costs.
