My main focus of area at this point would be rural areas.

When downturn starts to happen they put on the brakes.These days I mainly focus on existing properties.

The main thing is that you are taking action.

@Timmy Fritz I think the main issue is identifying what your mother is interested in gaining from the sale.

I would say it comes down to what is in your lease.My lease says they are responsible for the remainder of their lease or until I have it rerented.My lease also says if they have pest problems during the first 30 days I will take care of it, beyond that they are responsible because I can't control how clean they keep their place and leaving out food attacks critters.Will their deposit cover the last month and is their any damage or is it mainly just a cleaning issue?

rents on topsham maine are bit all over map, generally higher than lisbon lewiston but not much lower than Brunswick if inside rt 295 line closer to downtown and river. zillow isnt used much as CL. if you rent section 8 or vouchers look to add price of landlord paid heating, snow ice removal, salt sanding,  which this season has been massive. 

Middlesex and Monmouth counties is my main area.

Main St. has always been nice but only 2-3 streets inland and you can see quite a difference.

Close to military base, and next to a lot of businesses and churches, 1 block away from the main street of the town.
