The thrills and bills of owning a home. Especially when you encounter the previous owner's handy work!

What a bunch of crap! (Sorry, couldn't help myself).

Spiff, when the house was being sold, as part of the process, the owner had to sign a statement saying he wasn't aware of anything that was wrong. Look through your paperwork and start there. After 12 years, it is reasonable to assume they WERE aware of a problem and if they didn't disclose it, you probably have a basis for action.

That's pretty sh[tty Spiff (pardon the pun).

One of the things i always did when looking at home was to flush toilets and test every sink, multiple times.
I'm sure realtors thought i was nuts.
How many home buyers bring their own flashlights, ladders and volt meters to open houses?

Only the nutty ones. Better to be a nutty one than to dig up some nutty ones in your front yard, if you know what I mean.

The question my wife asked, was was it your poop. \:\) ha ha lol. Really, this is crazy and I would go back to my realtor. It is possible it has been like this a long time, even from the owners before your sellers, still it is not right.

Wonder where it's been going?

On the plus side, if you have been paying for water AND sewer you may be due for a small rebate...

Mutant gofers must be sad that you are taking away their primary food source.

but wait...there's more!

OK...got the sewer from the cabana tied into the main line ($3500 later). So that's resolved.

Wake up this morning to find our car has been broken into, and from there they used our garage clicker and got into the garage. The freaky thing is that they didn't seem to take anything, and our garage was a motherload (computers, stereo equipment, cd's...you name it!)

So either they were just kids looking for trouble, or they realized they hit the jackpot and may come back later with a truck!

So...I'd love to install a camera that will record to hard drive on my computer (or it's own). No need to record 24/7...motion detection?

Any ideas?

Oh...did I mention my kitty almost died last week?

so you had to fix the pool situation, you didn't go back to the realtor? I thing the seller(s) from the past would be obligated to disclose this issue.
