After two years of renting this lovely house its time to move out. It's been a great house, in a great neighborhood but (unfortunately) rented from a not-so-great company called "Remax Advantage - Summerlin". Probably not the worst rental company in the world, but certainly the worst that I've used over the last decade of renting since moving to USA. Any contact with them, leaves a sour taste from their unprofessional handling of all reported problems, ignoring phone calls, voicemails and never replying to emails unless its to demand timely payment of rent.
REMAX - Only interested in collecting rent. Not interested in maintaining the property:
I gave up reporting the problems we had in the house, because none of the issues were ever addressed. The only time Remax sent a handymen to fix the various issues - the handymen arrived, fixed one problem, looked at the others, promised to return with parts and left. Never to return.
Here is a copy of the letter I sent/voicemailed/emailed/mailed a dozen times when I first moved in back in 2018.
"I’ve had no response to my three emails reporting these problems, so I am resorting to mailing this letter.
Remax has never given me a move-in inspection and although there are no major problems with the house I do have number of smaller problems I would like to report: Lots of damage spots and problems like blown bulbs and rear yard electrical problems to report.
House Issues
• Dishwasher intermittently shows an E24 error code – pump fault.
• Multiple in-roof bulbs do not work
• Microwave Lightbulbs over hob do not work

• Front Guestroom Blind cord is not working
• Heavy chip on external pillar in front of garage door
• Front Door latch is faulty and sometimes sticks (leaving door unlocked)

• Master bathroom has holes in wall from a previous tenant’s removal of TV mount?? (Guessing).
• Shower rubber seal is broken and needs replacing.
• Small hole behind door in downstairs entry toilet
• Kitchen skirting board has what looks like cat scratches on it?
• Hob gas lighter intermittently does not work on front hob
• Living room gas fire does not work. It will not light.

Day ski-ing @ Big Bear, CA with Miss Kate and eldest son (Nathan). It was Nate's first time skiing and he really impressed me... I also managed to stay upright and since I haven't been skiing for just over ten years I really impressed myself LOL Fantastic day out, perfect weather and for a resort that is only a two hour drive from home I can see a few more weekends on the piste before the season melts away. Looking at how quickly Nate got on his legs and cruising the green's -- I think he is going to be an even bigger ski-bum that I was in my younger years ;)

Fun day in the late Summer sun in Salem VA. Lots of Yanks with fake medieval English accents, fake swords and other fun stuff for the clan. Thoroughly enjoyed being told by at least three stall owners that my English accent was very convincing. lol
