I had to run a new service line all the way around my property to avoid jackhammering half of my hard surfaces.

Pay attention to the water surface area, and trap size.

As for the water and trash cost, you should be able to call the city and get these numbers (especially if it’s such a small town).I’d also recommend talking to the current tenants to see if they’ve had any persistent issues (e.g. drainage issues which might point to roots in the drainage system lines and can be an expensive fix).

Best case scenario is these municipalities rework drainage systems to prevent the flood from ever happening again, but in most cases will eventually affect insurance premiums.

i would paint the surface with any membrane like the one use in bathroom to prevent any of the pop corn falling off , then i would dry wall the whole area, good luck 

I generally interview a lot of candidates and I verbally decline/weed out those who just on the surface would not qualify (smoker, guy with 15 snakes, person trying to re-negotiate the rent down, someone asking me if an eviction will be a problem or if I plan on calling their last landlord, or asking about a payment grace period).

The tenant surfaced asking for more time to get his stuff out of the home.

Then stormwater drainage report.

Jacked up the floor, new gutters & drainage pipe, gutted kitchen, new sheetrock & flooring in most of the downstairs, paint throughout, of course.

Just like anything else do your due diligence on multiple lenders and retrieve what they have to offer before running your credit.I'm not sure if I even scratched the surface but I hope this helps a little.Just my two pesos.
