This time last year I was told the power plant where I work was being sold.

Once you own it fill the pool in with dirt and plant grass.

I personally am not afraid of well and septic but I would stay away from lagoons and treatment plants. 

@Vincent Plant - You could use $30,000 to flip $300,000 worth of homes (roughly).  

The second photo is the landscape, and it needs curb appeal - some desert plants or rocks or grass or something - the yard looks bare to me.

@ Michael Plante that's so awesome but risky.

@Michael Plante Sounds really efficient.

But, even I'm dumbfounded by their latest move- they've recently planted a tree in front of my rental property in the common areas that's already starting to block and will soon completely block the view my place used to enjoy.There used to be another plant or tree that was fine in that place, which wouldn't grow tall enough to block the view, which was uprooted and replaced with this current tree.The premium my place has over its comps is all about the view; I even hired somebody to come over and take pictures of that view which I now can't use anymore.

Have all the paper work for this ready when you have them sign the notice above.Another option, since they obviously have problems managing their money, offer them a payday payment plant.

In drier climates, landlords should totally design their properties to low water plants, which are less maintenance.
