Provide a Lawn Mower & Snow Shovel to your Tenants?

Rental Property Investors - 

Do you provide your tenant with a lawn mower and a snow shovel to upkeep the property? 

Would love to hear what others provide their tenants for upkeeping a property. Once I get pretty scaled away, I don't see myself providing 50 lawn mowers for 50 properties in the future.

In my lease the tenant is responsible for lawn maintenance and we do not provide a mower. I do provide a business card of a local lawn company if they would rather do that at their expense.

    I don't provide those items.  Anything I provide I have to replace or repair and I don't want to have to do that.

    @Jacob Sampson My point exactly! I want to keep my expenses as low as possible - avoiding lawn care services, providing lawn mowers, repairing/replacing lawn mowers, etc.

    @Shaye Mora Nope! Like @Lindsay Brake, our lease says they're responsible. :)
