A LandLord’s Nightmare: Flooded Rental Apartment

This apartment flooded Friday night and was discovered Friday morning. Because the new tenant was not completely moved in yet, it was not discovered until the water had been flooding the apartment for more than 12 hours. This is footage of the damage. The cause was a busted supply line on the upstairs toilet. The estimated time to get the apartment ready for move-in again is about 2-3 weeks. The whole place needs to be dried out to prevent mold. Anything that is not salvageable will be thrown out and replaced. We are planning on using mold prevention specialists to treat the wet areas and then to rebuild the damaged parts of the apartment. Stay tuned for an updated video on the progress. If you don’t want to deal with these emergencies in your rental property, contact us at info@secureinvestmentsrealty for your free rental evaluation.
