Your worry is if the pipes are in tact and if the water and sewage flows out.

I went there to have the water turned back on and started getting caught up in what the preferred order of operations should be.

Hi William, we're right across the water in Brooklyn! 

And warm welcome to the BP community!

Thermostat was off the wall, laundry room filled up to 3ft with dirty clothes trash everywhere, bed frames dissasembled and no water.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!

Lack of water?   

However I would probably bill it back to the tenant monthly if it was based on usage like water.

@JD Martin the biggest issues have been related to furnaces, hot water, a missed clean, and broken hot tub. generous refunds have ranged from 25-100%, it really just depends on variables like nightly rate, guest demeanor, impact on their stay, etc. 

I am very new to this and I am a fish out of water just flopping around trying to figure it out.
