Who Mows Your SFH Lawns?

[Aubrey H.]

Just seeing how others handle the mowing at the SFH and what you see are the pros and cons of what you do or what you have done?

Right now we "hire" (my family business) the lawn mowing done but we are trying to decide if we are going to start having our tenants mow to cut costs/keep rent low. I feel like people are surprised when we say that we take care of the lawn and a few have even said that they enjoy mowing. 

From a business side I feel that we should save the money we spending on the mowing. But from an owners side I like that I know the people that are taking care of it and doing it right. 

Thoughts? 

Thanks in advance!!!

@Aubrey H.

For me, unless it's a multi family, tenant is responsible and that is outlined in the lease. Now that I think about it, I even have the tenants mow at one of my duplexes.
