A lot things need to be taken care. First thing when we got there the house was not lock. The air was working correctly west side of the house. WiFi was down for a day. Screen door in one bedroom does not work. In the living room you use piece of wood to lock the sliding glass door , the tracks in all of the sliding glass door we’re discussing. The bathroom corner needed to be cleaned. Also there was no toaster..
