This home sits on a hill, so the rain water will flow down the rear side of the home. This happens to be the garage on this house. On one side, there is a curb which directs water into a ditch. A solution for this side may be to create a garden bed with a wall to direct water to the side of the house, allowing it to continue down the hill without pooling by the home.
