Just the tip Friday!
Slope is very important with lot grading. Always ensure water is moving away from the foundation. Please make sure to hire a company that has the lot grading going away from the home when installing a driveway.

Handrails and guardrails protect people. They avoid dangerous falls. When a handrail is loose, or in this case disconnected, the home owner needs to repair it before an accident happens!
A very easy fix but one that's gotta get done!

Finding some possible mould in a basement near the waste lines is never a good sign. There will need to some invasive investigations here to determine the leak location and its time to get rid of the damaged drywall.

A leaky toilet is an issue I find very often. If the ceiling is unfinished and you have a clear view of the piping material, whenever you're passing by take a quick look to ensure there are no leaks.
Gas appliances are a great feature to a home. Cleaning and staging is amazing for selling a home. Always make sure when you clean around and behind any gas appliance that you don't pull it out too far and it pulls and places stress on the gas connection.
Proper water management is very important. At this home, they have extended the downspouts. Great! But, not far enough! It still stops right at the foundation and then the lot grading is not taking the water away.
