Below is a streaming list of concerns we have found today, yesterday, this past week, past month in real time. Each time an inspection is posted the list changes. Of course client privacy is our #1 priority so nothing found below will/can identify the home or owner just the primary concerns we found and the date.

I insured that the water valves were off outside. I made sure the slider between the 2 areas was closed upon departure. I lowered the temp on the main room AC to 72 to mitigate the higher humidity on that side. The higher humidity could jus be the morning service call as it is 100% outside according to my weather app. There is water sitting out back see photo below.

7/23/24: The alarm pad next to the garage door beeps lightly every minute or so. The water main valve was partially on when I arrived. I did not leave it that way because as you can see in the photo below, I placed my keys next to the valve which ensures I turn the valve off before I leave.

It’s a memorable piece of my day. The master bath toilet was running slightly as I walked in to the bathroom. I’m not sure if this will affect your water bill, but it could have an adverse affect.
