Leasing Single Family House Tips/questions

[Felipe Carrillo]

Hi BPers,

Looking to list my first single family rental property within the next two weeks or so and I was wondering how important it is to offer blinds with the property for the tenant to want to move in. 

Also, I'm debating whether or not to redo the lawn as it has completely died (previous owners did not take care of it), but I'm concerned that if I do the tenants won't take care of it and I'll loose the money. Also, would redoing the lawn help lease the property? How important is it from your experience?

Thanks in advance for your comments!
