FULL TRANSCRIPT
Unknown Speaker 1:39
I'm not just Like or if you
Speaker 1 1:43
maybe you can show me How to unlock it,
Unknown Speaker 1:52
because it's just like, really weird.
Speaker 2 2:00
It. But I love this house. It's so cute. Yeah, so
Speaker 1 2:12
you want to try to open it just so you can see, because it's just really difficult, and
Speaker 2 2:18
it's this wall. But other than that,
Unknown Speaker 2:32
like sometimes
Speaker 1 2:34
I can get it unlocked from inside, but it's not. It's not this lock. No, this one is like nothing.
Unknown Speaker 2:43
It's just that's the one that he put in.
Unknown Speaker 2:55
Yeah, okay, look at it from the inside. You
Unknown Speaker 3:44
like, I know it's this part is the lock
Unknown Speaker 3:48
version, see? So sometimes that works, lock it
Unknown Speaker 3:52
again. It doesn't always work. Interesting.
Speaker 3 4:02
I the locksmith. Dude was really cool, and he
Speaker 1 4:10
he like finagled it, but he's, like, honestly, you should probably get, like, a a garage door person over here. I
Unknown Speaker 4:36
Yeah, yeah, I'll
Speaker 4 4:38
discuss this, because this is not Yeah, this isn't functioning properly.
Speaker 1 4:42
Yeah, I know you've already submitted the request, and I
Unknown Speaker 4:47
just wanted you to see it in person. So thank you for looking Yeah, no worries.
Speaker 1 4:55
But other than that, like, I love it. Have you been to this house before? Oh, so cute. I love the porch lake so much. I'm just like,
Unknown Speaker 5:03
yeah, it's a very quaint little
Unknown Speaker 5:07
farmhouse style. It's very nice. Yeah, it's really, really cute,
Speaker 4 5:15
awesome. And then the only other thing is, like, going through my quick spiel so you know where, like the air filter locations are the, I don't, oh, I know that one, yeah. So this is gonna be, I believe, your only filter, and it's right here.
Unknown Speaker 5:37
So this is where your filter is gonna go in, okay?
Speaker 4 5:41
And I believe your electrical boxes look in the garage. Let's double check,
Speaker 1 5:51
do you know how to and I could figure out,
Unknown Speaker 5:57
like set the AC timer. I
Speaker 4 6:09
do not that would probably be something that would be helpful to like, do a YouTube tutorial, and those will let you know it actually might be on the back of the house you
Unknown Speaker 6:47
you looking for the electrical
Unknown Speaker 6:54
box? Yeah, yeah, so it's right over here,
Speaker 4 6:57
and that's like, if the breakers trip, that's where you would go in order to accommodate that awesome. And then appliances, so your fridge, washer, dryer, I believe those all came with the house, correct? So those are appliances that the that you would be responsible for. So if something were to go wrong with them, we would send a technician out, and it would be at your expense. All of the other appliances, oven, microwave, range, things like that, are appliances that the owner will be responsible for. Okay?
Speaker 1 7:38
So because my request was for the freezer specifically. So if I'm paying for it, I don't really have to go through you guys. Then I could just call in a plan something, because that's what I'm waiting on, and the ice Baker just doesn't work. And so if you guys aren't do I have to go through you guys for that.
Speaker 4 7:58
Then, typically we do handle the requests, I'll go in and check, and I'll make sure that I notify and let everybody know that that was a request that's been made. I'll actually say on the portal
Speaker 1 8:09
a technician was requested, but I think, I think I submitted it like Monday or maybe even Sunday. So I just didn't know, okay, but I mean, if I'm paying for it, I don't mind, like calling in a client's company
Speaker 4 8:28
myself, okay, yeah, typically we go through like our vendors, so I'll double check on that, and then you're responsible for pest control. So there was a preliminary, like, spray for bugs. But outside of that, you would be responsible for, like, that pest control. There's like, crazy wasps. Yeah, there was a wasp, literally
Speaker 1 9:01
this big cheese, like, literally up there. And then they found, like 10 was mess here, and there's still, like a couple, but
Speaker 4 9:10
yeah, I got that, yeah, that they get pretty crazy. And then you are also responsible for yard maintenance, and then cosmetic issues, we won't come out for. But if you'll send like a request for like, your functional issues, like the garage or the fridge or things like that, we'll definitely send somebody out. What am i What's the word I'm
Speaker 1 9:37
trying to say screens. We don't have screens on like any of the windows, okay?
Speaker 4 9:44
So that's not something that we do, because that's more of like an as is situation. So the home was sold as or not sold, was leased out as is, without those screens on the windows. And that's more of like, it's less functional to some extent. And then also there's a one time maintenance inspection that's going to be coming closer to, like the winter months, and they'll reach out to three weeks in advance and schedule that with you. All that's going to be is like checking air filters and like smoke detectors, things like that. Awesome. Perfect. Did you have any additional questions for me?
Unknown Speaker 10:28
What about, like, tree maintenance?
Speaker 1 10:32
So that's, farmer doesn't have a lot of trees. But like, that tree in the neighbor's Jake is amazing. But like, what if, like, I don't know, we have a lot of storms here, like, what if the branches fall
Unknown Speaker 10:43
over? Yeah,
Speaker 4 10:46
in terms of tree maintenance, that would that is encompassed within yard maintenance, and also, we wouldn't have any jurisdiction over something growing in a neighbor's yard. So you might like have a conversation with them and say, Hey, like, really appreciate it if you would trim your trees back. I'm a little worried that in a storm, it might fall on my home or something like that. So yeah, in terms of, like, general tree maintenance, that would be something that you would handle. But also with a neighbor, we don't have any,
Speaker 1 11:24
like, jurisdiction over but if, like, one of their tree branches fell on, like the roof and caused damage, like, that's not my responsibility,
Speaker 4 11:35
right? Yeah, no, if that's obviously would be covered under, like, homeowners insurance for the owner, right? Like, if, if somebody else's tree falls on your home, yeah, yeah. I, I can't see that being your issue, other than the fact that, like, it's damaged the home that you're living in, yeah? Because, yeah, that makes, that would make zero sense, right? I do wonder, like, what do
Unknown Speaker 12:04
you know, what? What this is
Unknown Speaker 12:06
back here? I do not have any idea, just out of
Unknown Speaker 12:11
curiosity, yeah, I am not sure.
Unknown Speaker 12:14
Awesome. I love it. I'm happy
Speaker 4 12:17
to be here. Perfect. Yeah, if you have no more questions, I'll get out of your hair. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 12:26
Have a great rest of your day. You too. Thank
Speaker 4 12:33
you all. Let me know about the garage thing. Yeah, I'm gonna send as soon as I get back to the office, I'm gonna have a discussion, and I'll send you an update email regarding the things that we discussed. Okay, cool. Where is your office? At our office is West Boulevard or far west? Oh, far west. Yeah, cool. All right. Have a good day. Yeah, you as well.
