Since the sprinkler system runs throughout the soil in the garden wall and the soil is also basically a moderately inclined "hill", it might not be too easy to demolish the part of the wall that surrounds the ADU and fence it off, but my friend is fairly new to the rehab process.Here is a link to a diagram that explains it visually: ADU diagram (for some reason picture attachment isn't working)

If not, fix it and then take very detailed notes and photos of the current condition. let them know any damage from that day forward will be fixed and billed back.For the dryer, go give it a visual inspection and test to determine if it needs a service call or if it just needs to be replaced.

In terms of purchasing, I agree that having to pay all cash for property is a deterrent.

I'm referring to visual boards, healthy life style, changing limited beliefs.

The squatter can be chased away with the correct amount of deterrent.

I’m a huge visual learner haha.

Write an offer and use the due diligence period to first visually inspect and then, if it's worth it, have a professional inspect.

It wouldn't necessarily be a dealbreaker, but it would be a deterrent to me.

Cameras are a crime deterrent and offer protection for a landlord. 

Indeed - this isn't the most promising visual - however, a few things keep me thinking its worth a deeper dive.
