Trees in rentals in Memphis.

I wonder what are your guys' approach when it comes to trees?

I have 5 rentals in TN and all of them have trees around them (just like most of TN).

I happened to cut 2 trees last year that seemed to me too big and one of them was leaning into the house. It was well over 5000$, and trees here grow like crazy to say the least. My properties are insured.

Do you guys cut trees around your properties when they seem to grow too much? Or you just hope for the best and just use the insurance for anything that happens? Its so pricy and this state is crazy with trees seems unrealistic paying so much!

Also - I am an out of state investor, generally speaking, how often do you send your tree guy to inspect the trees in your rentals to check if they are ok or need to be cut?

Thanks.
