Artificial Lawns for an SFH

[Justin Wilson]

I'm currently living in a single family house hack that I plan on turning into a long term rental.  I've thought about installing a turf lawn to reduce maintenance and increase curb appeal, but they are not cheap to install.  What are the benefits and drawbacks of installing a turf lawn? Does anyone have experience with tenants maintaining an artificial lawn?  Would the property value or rents increase significantly?  Thanks.
