Look at the angle of the drive way.
Location of home in terms of potential flooding
Not close to a pond
I would test each electrical outlet and turn on all water facets and lights.
Run dishwasher, garage door and anything else you can.
Turn down temp and listen to JHVAC starting and turn up temp and listen to heater starting.Make sure drain for heater is working. Check flters.
I would fill up all sinks and tubs and check how well they drain.
Budget for a roof replacement so you are ok when the time comes.
Look in the atic for insulation level and duck problems.
