Property needs some work on it
Things that need fixing - 1) all the windows need screens on them with NO rips/tears AND ALL the windows need to be able to be opened (this is IMPERATIVE for a house that relies on ventilation for cooling), 2) the screen door needs to be operational WITH a screen to provide for ventilation, 3) for whatever reason the house is VERY noisy at night
