Do renters care a lot about having a big yard?
I'm asking because their are some newer, reasonably nice homes here that are on zero lots. The larger lots, in the rental price range I would accept, are usually older houses, sometimes not that appealing visually.
Then there is the issue of whether the renter is going to take care of the large lawn properly, or would they be willing to pay extra rent to have a service do it.
I know that people with children might want a big yard, but I'm wondering how much of a consideration the yard size should be in buying a house?
