The water main at the street is turned back on but the handle is still broken see photo below. The water main on the house was off & all is well inside. The pool water level was at the optimal level of half the skimmer port. I activated the alarm & removed the lock box from the front door before leaving. 3:45pm-4:45pm.
3/5/20: The white vinyl privacy fence on the right side of the house has green mildew building up on it & needs pressure washed see photo below. An animal is digging a hole underneath the pool pump concrete slab see photos below. Checked the pool bathroom which caused the alarm to go off. The weather stripping between the two front doors in the middle is dry rotted & starting to fall apart.. High humidity so I turned the thermostat to 78 and waited until the humidity was under 64% before leaving. Brought in several pieces of mail.
3/5/20: Damaged section of wall under the dining room window has been repaired see photo below. Humidity was extremely high due to the setting of the thermostat in the lower temperatures outside. So I move the thermostat to 71° in the dehumidistat to 50% in order to mitigate. Crack in ceiling in master bedroom just above slider photo below. It does not appear to be wet floor damage from moisture.
3/5/20: Guest bathroom tub is full of garbage bags. The yellow spots on the master bedroom ceiling have not changed in appearance. Humidity is a little higher than I’d like to see it so I move the thermostat to 75° in the dehumidistat to 50 to help mitigate. Hall closet near guest bedroom starting show signs of orange spots in corners.
3/5/20: The guest bathroom sink right faucet handle is leaking from underneath the countertop when water is running only, the valves are shut off & it has been tagged as such. Humidity level was excessively high turn the thermostat down to 73° to mitigate the temperature only being 75 inside at this time of the day is causing issue we need to get that system to run for a couple of hours to remove the humidity. I tried to call the client was able to get a hold of her will check back next week to see where is the humidity is
3/5/20: Weeds are growing in the landscape beds see photos below. There is a hairline crack in the ceiling above the kitchen sink about 6’-8’ long. No tub or sink in MBathroom. Checked the pipe screwed into the top of the irrigation pump. Pool edges need scrubbing, debris on bottom and top of pool. Higher than desired humidity inside the home however I know you’re coming this weekend so I believe it will be fine until then.
3/5/20: Checked both light timers. Right side bow window in master bedroom appears to have leaked some. No damage to be seen on wall our floor under window, photo below.
3/5/20: The washing machine water valves & hoses are corroded & could possibly start to leak soon if not replaced, I tried turning them into the off position but could not get them to turn see photo below.

The guest bathroom sink has a slow drain, it has been tagged as such.

3/1/20: I went to the residence to check on the irrigation system which had been reported that the sprinklers were running & had been on for more then several hours when it is not supposed to be turned on. The sprinklers were running in the front, right side & backyard when I arrived & several neighbors were standing in the street in front of the house by the water main which they had attempted to shut off before I got there but the metal handle was broken & they couldn’t get the water to shut off. I immediately ran around the entire exterior perimeter of the house looking for the irrigation timer or any shut off valves for the irrigation system which none were found. I went inside the residence & found the irrigation timer inside the garage which was in the off position but the sprinklers were still running see photo below. I was unable to locate the power source for the irrigation timer to see if that would possibly shut the sprinklers off. I was then advised that the county water department would be coming out to shut the water main off & could leave the residence unattended.
2/28/20: Inside garage light was on, turned off. Reset cameras per client’s instructions. Home very clean, ready for next renters. Thermostat was set to off so I set the thermostat and the dehumidistat to the settings indicated on the blue card next to the thermostat
