I'm curious what type of landscaping would be attractive to renters, but also get you the most bang for your buck? What type of landscaping- Back yard/Front Yard would you put in with the following: 

-New Mid Grade Modular ADU/Granny Unit

-1,150 sq ft home

-4,000 sq ft lot

-Currently no landscaping, just dirt 

-Location: San Luis Obispo County, California 

Thank you!

Depends what city or area your rental is in but definitely keep it LOW maintenance since renters do not do well with doing their own landscape maintenance and you also don’t want a high landscape maintenance bill or water bill.

Thanks  @Ben Tilbury!  In nicer part of Nipomo.  Low maintenance most def.  I'm thinking a few trees, some CA native plants, maybe a concrete patio and fire pit?
