The load then get transferred to the corners of the deck.

When I lived in Wisconsin I had over 400 house plants, a garden on a 2nd floor deck, and 3 garden in my yard with various srubs, trees, plants, rocks, wood chips and etc.

Exterior will include two deck additions, demo and redo of concrete drive, patio and sidewalks. 18 x 20 garage to be finished as studio and include addition of 1/2 bath.

It's for decks but wouldn't  hurt on pavers and is cheep.

Really if you can never imagine running a weed whacker or fixing a loose deck rail or mowing a lawn, then the condo may fit your rental management abilities.

There is also nice landscaping around the periphery, old growth in an establish neighborhood, and a common deck area which was nice too.

With the Family Car, you fill it up yourself, probably wash it, change the oil, change the wiper blades, and pay a mechanic for the more complicated repairs. 

Another tenant built a deck totally at their expense on my house.

But you still need to be careful because demo isn't all monkey work -- you need to know enough about construction and rehabbing to have the judgement to make the right decisions when unforeseen things are encountered, and you need to be able to think through a demo beyond the head of your sledgehammer or teeth of your sawzall blade.
