And then in a new neighborhood barely a year old, the house behind us caught on fire and did substantial smoke damage requiring the house to be taken back to it’s bones to be repaired. The cause of the fire was due to an exploding battery for a cordless lawn mower. The owners were out of their house for over a year.
