Default How could they forget?

Yesterdays inspection, older home. I was looking at the gutters and it seemed something was missing.... They forgot to cut the holes and install the downspouts!


now that is a ... "Here's Your Sign"

even worse owner and Realtor didn't believe me!

Downspouts are at an extra cost.
