FYI

I'm kind of moved into my new home. It's larger, by 115 sq feet than the other one, and about .6 mile almost directly north. It has a northern exposure, rather than southern, and no patio cover. I do not yet know what I'll do about that.
Thursday I have security bars installed and a 10 foot gate installed in the east (10') fence wall, and my friends are bringing the rest of the stuff from the other house. It will go to the garage and the living room until I can get it put away.

I had thought the tenants had taken good care of the place, and superficially, they did.

However, I have to replace the dishwasher--it was leaking, caused mold. The inspector said they probably did not know of the leak, and I think he was probably right. It was fixed the first time a few months ago, and when we started it up last week, it still leaked. This time the cost of repair is greater than replacement. (It was previously, but the repairman thought he fixed it. He didn’t) The home warranty co will give $ to replace it with the same level of appliance.
The mold has been removed.
The tenants did not replace the furnace filters as per the tenant contract, so I had to have the AC coils cleaned. As part of that service, the fellow also cleaned the furnace thingy. Both were covered with dust of at least 5 years. Already the furnace has been running less, and for a shorter time.
And now, the dial on the water heater does not work. I'm waiting to hear from the warranty co about getting someone here to fix that.
Today I'm working on emptying boxes and getting the office put together.
I was in a quiet cul-de-sac with little traffic. Now I'm on an entrance street into the same subdivision, the "upper-class" section of it. I was afraid there would be a lot of street noise, but there is very little.
I think it will be a good place to be for a few years.
Now to sell the other house.
Anybody interested in a nice 3/2 in SE Tucson?
