Location great, outside of house great, neighborhood and neighbors are great. Now the issues….1. AC can’t keep up house never got below 73 even at night. 80s inside during the day.2. Furniture is too big for the rooms, odd configuration, especially the “master”.3. Un planned guests… there was a contractor working in the basement area 3 of our 4 days there. Woke up the family one day with drilling. Had to wait on the second bathroom because of this, daughters didn’t feel comfortable taking a shower down there with someone else in the house. 4. Kitchen pans, how hard is it to have decent nonstick pans available, this is a pet peeve of mine but still a detractor.

This house has a nice location, but is not ready to be rented yet- Either thermostat doesn’t work or AC not strong enough - 80 degrees during the day and too cold at night- Two days of very noisy construction during our stay which was “mandatory” according to owner. It turns out it was part of an ongoing basement renovation that was not time sensitive, but he didn’t care about our inconvenience and wanted to get his project finished. After we complained several times, he called them off.- Outlet doesn’t work in kitchen, which meant we had to switch out and move appliances if we wanted to use the microwave or toasterWi-Fi went out for two days following a temporary outage. Router was old and “insufficient to handle multiple devices” according to Comcast and could not be rebooted. Everything worked fine after the old modem was replaced with the proper one from Comcast- Mattress in master is like a hammock- Had to sign into our own streaming service on Hulu - none in the house Crappy Roku remote that requires multiple button presses to move the cursor or select anything. Owner knows about it but didn’t replace- No outlet in the main bathroom, requiring my wife to dry her hair in the kitchen
