House Flooding responsibilities

[Daniel Suarez]

I purchased a new home recently in Baltimore and placed a tenant. There was a huge storm yesterday and the entire basement and main floor are flooded because the house doesn't have a sub pump. We brought a plumber to deal with the issue of water getting in, but they cannot fix the issue until Tuesday, as I landlords what other steps can I take to keep the tenant and the house safe.

Thanks in advance.

@Daniel Suarez  There's a very real danger of electrocution in that water, so be sure that the power to the house is shut off before you go diving in.  

Work with emergency services to be sure it's safe to go in to start pumping it out.
