To Whom It May Concern:

Property Condition Assessment, Inc. (PCAInc) has completed a Property Condition Assessment (PCA) of the referenced property in general accordance with the ASTM Baseline Property Condition Assessment Process, E 2018-08, and PCAInc’s Proposal 12-048, July 12, 2012.

This Property Condition Report (PCR) is for the exclusive use and benefit of The Board of Trustees of the Florida Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church, Inc. and the Board of Higher Education and Campus Ministry of The Florida Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church, the “Client.” It is not to be relied on by any other agency or entity without the written consent of the Client and PCAInc.

The opinions expressed in this report by PCAInc were formed utilizing the degree of skill and care ordinarily exercised by any prudent property condition evaluator in the same community under similar circumstances. PCAInc assumes no responsibility or liability for the accuracy of information contained in this report that has been obtained from the Client or the Client’s representatives, the owner or the owner’s representatives, from other interested parties, or from the public domain. The conclusions presented represent PCAInc’s professional judgment based on the information obtained during the course of this assignment. PCAInc’s evaluations, analyses, and opinions are not representations regarding the design integrity, structural soundness, or real value of the

property. Information regarding operations, conditions, and test data provided by the Client, the current owner, or their representatives has been assumed to be correct and complete. The conclusions presented are based on the data provided, observations made, and conditions that existed specifically on the date of the assessment walk through on June 11, 2013. PCAInc certifies that PCAInc has no undisclosed interest in the referenced property. PCAInc’s relationship with the Client is at arm’s length, and PCAInc’s employment and compensation are not contingent upon the findings or estimated costs to remedy any deficiencies due to deferred maintenance and any noted component or system replacements.

PCAInc’s PCR cannot wholly eliminate the uncertainty regarding the presence of physical deficiencies and the performance of a subject property’s building systems. Preparation of a PCR in accordance with ASTM E 2018-08 is intended to reduce, but not eliminate, the uncertainty regarding the potential for component or system failure and to reduce the potential that such component or system may not be initially observed. A PCR is not intended to be technically exhaustive and is not a code compliance report. In accordance with ASTM E 2018-08, representative observations were made and not complete inventories. This PCR was prepared recognizing the inherent subjective nature of PCAInc’s opinions as to such issues as workmanship, quality of original installation, and estimated remaining useful life (RUL) of any given component or system. It should be understood that PCAInc’s suggested remedy may be determined under time constraints, formed without the aid of engineering calculations, testing, exploratory probing, the removal of materials, or design. Furthermore, there may be other or more appropriate schemes or methods to remedy the physical deficiency. PCAInc’s opinions are generally formed without detailed knowledge from individuals familiar with the component’s or system’s performance.

Participants in the walk-through were Robert McBride (field observer and PCR author), Barbara Betz (field observer and PCR reviewer) and Josh Kilmer, Commercial Roofing Consultants, Inc. Access to the property was provided by Reverend Erwin Lopez.

Any questions regarding this report should be directed to PCAInc at (407) 422-5257.

Project No: PCA13-025 1

1. SUMMARY:

1.1 Purpose and Scope:

The purpose of the PCA is to observe and report, to the extent feasible pursuant to the processes of ASTM E 2018-08, on the physical condition of the subject property. The scope of the PCA has four components:

Document reviews and interviews with Authorities Having Jurisdiction Walk through survey Preparation of the opinions of probable cost to remedy physical deficiencies Preparation of a Property Condition Report

1.2 Deviations from the Guide:

This PCA was conducted as a Summary. The report is limited in descriptions and equipment inventories and is primarily directed to areas to be included in a capital reserve budget.

No construction plans, surveys, etc. were made available to PCAInc for review. Interviews with the Authorities Having Jurisdiction were not made.

1.3 Major Concerns:

The wood fencing is leaning in two areas, northeast section and southwest section. The leaning fence is generating complaints from the neighbors. Although the cost to repair the fence is minimal, the repair is considered to be a major concern because it is creating a neighborhood conflict.

There are immediate repairs needed to the roof that need to be made to preclude water intrusion issues. Estimated immediate repair costs are between $1,200 and $1,400. The roof was installed in 2004 and funds should be budgeted to replace the roof in five years.

The electrical service panel and electrical distribution panels were manufactured by Federal Pacific. The occupants report that they have received minor shocks from light switches and have noticed arcing in light switches. A certified licensed electrician needs to be contracted to inspect the electrical system in the house and make necessary repairs. The replacement of the distribution panel and inspection is estimated to cost $2,500.

The HVAC air handler has been in service for approximately 18 years, three years beyond its anticipated useful life. The HVAC condenser is newer, having been replaced in 2005. Funds should be budgeted to replace the air handler and condenser within the

Property Condition Assessment – 8749 Aspen Avenue, Orlando, FL 32817

Project No: PCA13-025 2

next two years. Both units will need replacement due to the new refrigerant requirements. Estimated replacement cost is approximately $7,000.

Opinions of probable cost are based on order of magnitude estimating. The goal is to provide a cost estimate within 70-80% of the actual cost. These estimates and allowances are to be used for budgeting only. To determine the more probable actual cost, the Client is referenced to professional architects/engineers for the preparation of documentation to be used in bidding by qualified contractors.

Category 1, Life Safety Issues $ 2,500 Category 2, Deferred Maintenance $19,350 Category 3, Options $ 4,400

Total $26,250

1.4 General Descriptions and Physical Condition:

The property is located in Woodside Village subdivision, a residential community located north of University Boulevard, west of Highway 417 and North Econlockhatchee Trail in unincorporated Orange County, Florida.

The Orange County Property Appraiser (OCPA) lists the total land area as being approximately 0.24 acres. The property is rectangular in shape with the long axis running north-south. The property is 86’ wide by 120’ deep. The building is sited towards the front of the property.

The property was sold to The Board of Trustees of the Florida Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church, Inc. on December 9, 1981. The 2013 market value of the property is $137,447, $50,000 for the property and $87,447 for the building.

The building is a 2,871 gross sq. ft. single-story residence with 1,970 sq. ft. of living space. It has a two-car garage, 552 sq. ft. with a 319 sq. ft. screened porch at the rear. There are three bedrooms, two full baths and a room being used as an office. It was constructed in 1978.

The building is of concrete masonry unit construction (CMU) with pre-engineered wood trusses and an asphaltic three-tab shingle roof with a modified bitumen membrane on the low slope porch roof.

The front of the building is finished with a stone veneer and Hardie siding. Hardie siding is used on the wood framed porch. The majority of the building has a stucco finish.

1.5 Other Observations:

1.5.1 Site and Drainage:

There were no issues with the storm water drainage.

A 210 linear foot six-foot board-on-board wood fence encloses the back yard. The fence is leaning into the neighbor’s property to the left and there is a section of the fence leaning into the neighbor’s property at the rear. The fence was installed in 2005 by Fence Outlet, 9671 S. Orange Blossom Trail, Orlando. It appears that the fence posts were not anchored with concrete as they should have been. These fence sections should be disassembled, the posts reset in concrete and the panels re-attached. The work can be properly performed with handyman labor. The estimated repair cost has been included in the Opinion of Probable Cost (OPC) table at the end of this report.

1.5.2 Landscape and Irrigation:

The landscaping is in fair to good condition. It is evident that a lot of work has been recently performed in rejuvenating the landscaping, removing old and overgrown plants and replacing them with new plants. The new landscaping in the front of the house gives the 35-year-old home a younger appearance. The landscaping in the rear of the house needs further work.

The Saint Augustine sod lawn is in fair condition. The front lawn evidences a past chinch bug problem, but with care will fill in. The rear lawn has extensive weeds. Should the current lawn service company not be able to correct the weed problem, another service company should be engaged.

Front lawn

The irrigation system has a Rain Bird ESP Modular irrigation controller mounted on an interior garage wall. It is a commercial unit with more capability than needed for a residential property. The controller has 13 irrigation zones with four zones currently programmed for use. The irrigation system was not observed in operation. A remote rain sensor was not observed; however, the controller was set to bypass the sensor. Building code requires the use of a rain sensor.

Property Condition Assessment – 8749 Aspen Avenue, Orlando, FL 32817

Project No: PCA13-025 6

The irrigation heads around the building do not meet the current code requirements. They are installed less than 12” from the building wall; however, no issues with the building were observed.

Irrigation controller

1.5.3 Access, Paving, Curbing, and Parking:

There is a two-car concrete driveway. The concrete is in good condition for its age. It is cracked. The entrance drive is steep, causing vehicles to scrape the pavement. Consideration should be given to repairing the cracks in the concrete to extend its life and an estimate has been included in the OPC table.

Property Condition Assessment – 8749 Aspen Avenue, Orlando, FL 32817

Project No: PCA13-025 7

Driveway

The concrete sidewalk in front of the building is in good condition. There is a concrete pad in the rear of the building used as a barbecue grill pad. It is in good condition.

1.5.4 Utilities:

The primary electric power is provided by Duke Energy and is brought to the property underground from a ground mounted transformer located in the northwest corner of the parcel.

The water service meter is located in the sidewalk at the southwest corner of the parcel. There is a 1” backflow preventer in the liriope planting bed near the water meter. The shutoff water valve to the building was not located; however, the backflow preventer can be used to shut off the water, if necessary.

Property Condition Assessment – 8749 Aspen Avenue, Orlando, FL 32817

Project No: PCA13-025 8

Water service backflow preventer

The sanitary service appears to be a septic system located in the front of the building. A PVC sanitary cleanout was observed at the front of the building.

Natural gas service was not observed.

Reclaimed water service was not observed.

1.5.5 Structure:

Construction plans were not provided for review.

The building is a concrete masonry (CMU) structure with a concrete slab-on-grade and a pre-engineered roof truss system. The roof deck is constructed of pine boards.

No structural issues with the CMU walls were observed. No typical stair-step cracking was observed in the walls. The slab in the living spaces was covered with flooring and was not observable. The slab in the garage was in good condition.

The rear porch was wood framed. No structural issues were observed.

Project No: PCA13-025 9

1.5.6 Thermal and Moisture Protection:

Moisture protection for the building consists of an asphalt shingle roof system with a torch-down modified bitumen roof over the low-slope porch roof.

The CMU masonry walls are finished with Hardie cement board siding and stucco. The walls appear to be painted with a quality latex paint. Re-sealing the stucco walls and repainting with latex paint is recommended every seven years.

The windows and exterior doors were replaced in 2011 by Strong General Contractors, Oviedo. The garage door was replaced in 2011 by Above the Rest Garage Doors, Inc., Kissimmee.

Thermal protection is provided with blown insulation material in the attic. The insulation value appears to be minimal. It is recommended that Duke Energy be contacted to evaluate the insulation of the attic. It is highly likely that additional insulation will be recommended.

Attic insulation

No roof leaks were observed. No water intrusion issues with the windows were observed.

Property Condition Assessment – 8749 Aspen Avenue, Orlando, FL 32817

Project No: PCA13-025 10

There were installation and maintenance issues observed with the roof. The ridge vent was installed with improper fasteners (standard nails). The fasteners need to be re-sealed to preclude leaks. The bathroom vent and sanitary stack above the small bathroom need to be re-flashed. Squirrels are chewing the lead boots on the three sanitary vent stacks. The lead boots need to be repaired to preclude leaks. The rear gutter on the building is filled with plant debris. The gutters need to be cleaned regularly, usually twice a year. Clogged gutters will cause the wood fascia boards to rot. The cost for the repairs has been included in the OPC table.

The finish roof was installed in 2004, prior to the 2004 hurricanes. The roof will reach its anticipated useful life in five years. The estimated cost to re-roof in similar materials has been included in the OPC table.

The screens on the rear porch are loose and need to be repaired or replaced. This is considered minor maintenance. The estimated cost for the repairs has been included in the OPC table.

Loose screens on porch

A section of the ventilated soffit at the rear of the house is loose and needs to be repaired to keep squirrels from entering the attic.

1.5.7 Mechanical Systems and Equipment:

The original copper water lines in the home were replaced with PVC lines in 1999 by Herrell Plumbing, Orlando. The water lines were run overhead in the attic space. The plumbing permit was shown to be expired, meaning the work did not have a final inspection by the building department to determine if it was properly performed.

Project No: PCA13-025 13

Attic showing PVC water lines

The observed sanitary piping above grade is PVC. The PVC used for the sanitary systems is anticipated to have long-term useful life remaining with no anticipated system replacement or significant repair costs occurring within the five year outlook of this PCR.

There are two bathrooms. Both bathrooms were likely renovated in 2011. The bathtub appears to be original.

Cooling and heating are provided by one split-system HVAC heat pump. The condenser is located on the east side of the building. It is a 3.5 ton Goodman manufactured in 2005 (model CPLJ42-1B; serial number 0503141369). The air handler is a 3.5 ton Trane manufactured in 1995 (model TWE042C14FB1; serial number K21826700).

The occupants report that they have received minor shocks from light switches and have noticed arcing in light switches. A certified licensed electrician needs to be contracted to inspect the electrical system in the house and make necessary repairs. The cost for replacement of the distribution panel and inspection of the electrical system has been included in the OPC table.

Cable television service is provided by Bright House.

1.5.9 Interior Space, Life Safety and Fire Protection:

The interior finishes are in very good condition. Wood flooring has been installed throughout the home. The bathrooms and kitchen have been remodeled, likely in 2011. They are current is design style and equipment.

The plaster ceilings are in good condition.

The interior walls appear to have been painted within the last year, likely when the current occupant moved in last July.

A hand-held fire extinguisher was observed in the garage. It was charged and appears to be in operable condition. It is recommended that the fire extinguisher by kept in the kitchen.

2. OPINIONS OF PROBABLE COST:

2.3 Definitions:

Opinions of probable cost are provided for resolution of material physical deficiencies observed. Under the ASTM guidelines, these exclude cosmetic/decorative matters; enhancements for marketplace repositioning; and routine and normal preventive maintenance.

PCAInc provides a table of recommended actions for remedy of physical deficiencies and for certain other matters that may not fall within the ASTM guidelines. PCAInc classifies actions in three categories:

- Category 1: Code violations and/or life safety matters that require immediate action

- Category 2: Deferred maintenance actions required to resolve material deficiencies in building systems and components

- Category 3: Enhancements

Under ASTM guidelines, a lower limit of $3,000 is set as a threshold to define actions that are not minor or insignificant. ASTM excludes code and life safety items from this threshold. PCAInc chooses to list action items that are below the threshold value to assure that the Client has a ready reference to all actions recommended by the findings and observations. Some of these items are noted as “Maint.” in the cost column.

Opinions of probable cost are based on the order of magnitude. These are to be used for budgeting only. To determine the more probable actual cost, the Client is referenced to professional architects/engineers for the preparation of documentation to be used in bidding by qualified contractors.
