We let the dead grasses remain through Winter for a nice aesthetic and cut them down in the Spring after the first couple of new shoots pop up.No more Spring mulching, almost no weeding if plastic was put down, leaves blow right off in the Fall and a great curb appeal that many properties don't have around here.

As long as there are retail sales comps of "good condition" properties occurring in the immediate area of your distressed/REO/short sale subject property, such that your ARV's are real and not made up, then of course you can create equity.Now, if 80% of the sales in that area are distressed/REOs/short sales in the prior 6 mths, then that's another matter, and you need to be cautious about being able to realize forced appreciation.Many retail buyers can't or won't even entertain the idea of buying a distressed property, due to financing issues, lack of funds to renovate the property themselves, hassle factor w/ living in a construction zone for a month, aesthetics, all kinds of reasons.
