Is there power to the building, has the heat been on over the past winters, i.e., frozen pipes, damaged walls, roof leaks, etc.  

I believe by end of fall/winter there will be opportunities for investors.  

Once you get north of Brunswick and a little away from the coast, prices are really low, especially compared to Portland.Oddly, it's fairly common for rentals here in Maine to include heat in the rent, so if you're out in the middle of the winter and need to warm up, you know your tenants will have their apartments at a nice cozy 95 degrees. 

Due to the holidays, COVID-19 and my busy schedule I didn't start the renovations until May 2020.

I just purchased my first investment property and it has old steam heat. the boiler is getting old even though it could get through a winter but I would like to upgrade the heating and cooling system.

We bought it back around the holidays.

I wanted to make sure I have gas on during the Winter months to protect the pipes; electric on at all times for the security system; and, I wanted to make sure the exterior (lawn) is kept up.

I'd keep cash right now for reserves and look at picking up something in the Fall/Winter.
