Exterior electrical weatherhead on building 8444 has melted with exposed wires present requiring Ameren power company to secure the electric meter mast; smoke detectors are missing throughout the building and need replacement.

Most all AC compressors are Goodman 2.5-ton units manufactured 2001–2004, are very dirty, and need to be cleaned and serviced by an HVAC technician.

Two broken window panes in the 8442 building require replacement, and caulking is needed around most all exterior windows.

No active termite presence was observed to the structure, but older termite damage was found on wood landscape timbers; inspector recommends spraying for termites/pest wood-destroying insects every 3–5 years.

Shingled roof is estimated 20 years old and has been patched extensively; tree limbs overhang the roof, a gutter downspout on the south side is loose, and missing soffit and aluminum fascia on the west eave expose wood.

Cracks are present in the basement floor at the basement wall allowing moisture intrusion; inspector recommends sealing all wall and floor cracks and coating with Drylok or similar waterproofing product.
