FULL TRANSCRIPT
Speaker 1 0:00
Hi, hey, how's it going? Jake Richard yoke, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you as well. Did you have any items that you wanted to address that were standing
Unknown Speaker 0:16
I just had one question Sure, which was about the like bands
Speaker 2 0:22
and the remote for sure, I can't, like, I can't
Speaker 2 0:33
seem to figure out, like, if I have the fans on, like, the light can only be on in one room and not the other. I think, okay, then,
Unknown Speaker 0:42
like, I also can't turn both of them
Speaker 2 0:46
off without turning the fan off. Does that make sense? Sure. So like, if I turn it on,
Unknown Speaker 0:54
is this switch on?
Unknown Speaker 0:56
Yeah, and then I'll turn the light on. Turn
Unknown Speaker 1:06
the light on, but I run here to turn
Unknown Speaker 1:15
the light on. Then can you see it's turned off? Yeah, is there? I think
Unknown Speaker 1:23
the switch is that one, but I'm not quite i
Speaker 1 1:53
There might this might actually be this fan might actually be hardwired,
Unknown Speaker 1:59
because I don't think there's a switch.
Unknown Speaker 2:08
Let's
Speaker 1 2:17
think, Hmm, so you, you're just wanting the light to be on in both rooms at the same time, or, like, off in both rooms, okay, yeah, I guess, or off in both rooms. The best thing would be, like, turn it off here, and then the switch here.
Unknown Speaker 2:39
I think
Unknown Speaker 2:42
so this one has the light on.
Speaker 2 2:44
Yeah, would I be able to have the fan on with the switch off?
Speaker 1 2:51
I think at least what I'm thinking there could be, like, a way to navigate some of this, so, like, the light was on, and now you hit that light on, and if you turn the switch on, the light should come on. Oh, okay. Does that make sense, yeah. So like, turn the power off on this one, turn the light to do whatever you want to do on that one, yeah. And then you can do this one, okay. Does that make sense,
Speaker 2 3:20
yeah. And then with the switch off, can the fan turn on. So
Speaker 1 3:24
with you'd have to turn the switch on, and then you would turn the fan on, okay, right? And then you can turn the fan off, and then turn the switch off here, and turn the fan off there, does
Unknown Speaker 3:36
that. And then I can have, like, the light off in both
Speaker 1 3:39
rooms, yeah? So with the light off, you could just turn the light off, okay, and now it would, I think it would do both. Currently, it does both, right, yeah, so you can see that it's on and off, okay, if you want to switch that, then you can so or both off. Now the lights on in this room, and when you turn the light, turn it on, the lights off in this room. Does that make
Unknown Speaker 4:10
sense? Yeah. Okay,
Speaker 1 4:13
so unfortunately, it's a bit of a juggle to do both, but that one's hardwired and this one's on a switch. So if you want to do those things, any changes you make to that fan that you only want to be on that fan, turn this switch off, okay? And then when you want to make changes to this fan, you'll have the switch on, it'll make changes to both, and then you can turn the switch off, and those changes will stay. Okay. Does that make sense?
Speaker 2 4:42
Yeah, okay, cool. Thank you. That was all like, okay, okay, but yeah. Other than that, all good, okay,
Speaker 1 4:53
cool. And there's no other items that are like outstanding, anything that you want to address or fix, or anything,
Speaker 2 4:59
I don't think so. Okay, yeah, cool. You got the inventory form, okay?
Speaker 1 5:07
But with the with the inventory, we just use that as a reference for anything at the end of the term. We don't like address any issues that are right, like standing in the inventory, if they're mentioned, so anything like that, you we could go over right now, or you would schedule in the portal, like, if something were to happen during your lease term.
Speaker 2 5:30
Okay, I had one question. Then, I guess is the like, I think it had mentioned in the lease that the fridge is not something that you guys can correct export one. Okay, so if it's, like, rickety, then, like, that's something I need to figure out on
Speaker 1 5:47
my own. So that, like, I'm saying that would be something that you would want to mention now. So that is something you just moved in. It's something that you noticed when you moved in. Yeah, that's something I can talk with them about. My guess is that they there's a way to extend the legs, yeah, so we could probably send somebody out to extend the legs so that it's not shaking. Okay, cool. Because I think, like when I feel
Speaker 3 6:22
connected, I cool.
Speaker 1 6:36
If there's nothing else, I'll go over my little spiel and I'll get out of your hair, sure, so you know where your air filters are.
Unknown Speaker 6:43
No
Speaker 1 6:51
so your air filter is going to be in here. So you open this guy up and you'll change that out. Every 6090, days, there is a air filter right here that you'll be able to change out. But moving forward, after that, you would purchase your own. And do you know how to open that? You just use these, like remove these little tabs, and it'll fall down cool. And do you know where your electrical panel is? Okay? So electrical panel, I
Unknown Speaker 7:28
it's just gonna be over there.
Unknown Speaker 7:32
I don't want to get my
Speaker 1 7:35
I think that could possibly be all of I think it might just be the main. There could be an electrical panel inside the unit. But if there's not one inside the unit, then that's that would just be the main. Okay,
Speaker 1 7:55
so I think there might actually be one in your
Unknown Speaker 8:06
that might be the water, right?
Speaker 1 8:11
Yeah, that's the water. So I think that that's your electrical panel. So if anything were to, like, go off, lights, things like that, you can check that before scheduling a maintenance request, just to see if it breaks. If a breaker switched. And then you bring in your own washer dryer, but the fridge is not under warranty. If something were to break with that, we would send somebody out, but it would be at your expense. If you don't want to pay that expense, we can take that fridge off site, and you can bring your own fridge on site, if you would like.
Speaker 2 8:39
So the like thing I mentioned before, if someone came out that would be at my expense,
Speaker 1 8:46
no, because that was Move In Condition, okay, so because you moved in and noticed that this was a situation that occurred when you moved in moving forward, it would be the things that like as you were using it, if something were to break right, but not with that. And then moving forward, you're responsible for pest control, the yard maintenance. You're responsible for the backyard. The front yard is a dual situation that was mentioned in your lease. And then any sort of cosmetic issues, like any sort of paint chips, things like that, we won't come out and fix, but anything functional, like if your fridge is broken, your stove is broken, your doors don't work, windows, things like that. All of that is something that we will come out and fix, and you'll schedule that through the portal. The last thing is, there's going to be a one time maintenance inspection that's going to be closer to the winter months. All they're going to do is they're going to come out, they're going to make sure that your smoke projectors are working and that your, like, air filters been changed. Cool. Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 2 9:51
I think there was one other thing, yeah, absolutely checked it this morning, though, but when I moved in, there was like, a bunch of broken glass in the front yard. Okay?
Speaker 1 10:01
I can check like we could go look And I can take pictures. I
Speaker 1 10:37
Okay, I yeah, we'll see if we can get somebody out to take care of that. Okay, cool, all right. Well, I'll get out of your hair and hope that you have enjoy your lease. Thank you. Nice to meet you. You you
Unknown Speaker 11:00
I'm.
