And also, a property in Winter Park that invested in regular landscape maintenance and seasonal plantings found that these efforts contributed to a positive community atmosphere, leading to longer tenant retention and the ability to increase rental rates without pushback.Thus, investing in landscaping is not just about planting trees and mowing lawns; it's about creating environments that enhance tenant satisfaction and property value.

My property operates within an HOA, recently HOA has been getting on our case for re-seeding/up-keeping the front lawn.As with most of CO, grass tends to die over winter, so here is my question: What is the best method to up-keep, re-seed and re-develop the front lawn?

But there are areas that still require a lot of work and they have artificially inflated in value and rent since the last downturn and it worries me that there will be a lot of economic destruction again when the market cools down and corrects.As for 38107, I don't invest in this zip code anymore personally.   

The walk in basement is good enough for lawn mower storage. 

Perform all repairs and provide lawn, and snow care 7. 

Figure your PM at 8- 10%, you will have garbage, lawn/ snow maintenance, water sewer, your taxes, insurance and loan payments. if there is common hallway or outdoor lighting, is it metered separately, if so, you will have that expense as well. 

Either they are a fool or you are, or perhaps both, but not neither.I won't even begin to get into the gaping flaws in your logic about valuation ... that shows either ignorance on real estate valuation or an attempt to artificially pump up values using valuation methods that are not valid.

I have never seen where you are not at least responsible for trash and lawn.  

Lawn was mowed... lawn mower was left behind for me.  

Vacancy allowance 5%, this is up to you lawn care (you or tenant), advertising, turnover cleaning, HOA if it has one, What about future assumptions for repairs and maintenance?
