Every trip we spot houses and commercial buildings springing up like the weeds in my garden. 

I'd liket to take the lawn out and put something that's requires less maintenance and water.I am unimaginative so I'd love to get some ideas from landlords out there and names of some gardeners who can do the work.  

When the same testing process that was followed for lumber liquidators was applied to home depot, home depot had twice as many products fail the test.

Try to stay away from items at Home Depot/Lowes.  

I think the house could support 7-8 rooms + kitchen bathrooms and a social space, i can add a garden outside.

For example, there is a garden hose being utilized fordrain line which appears to be undersized and not routed and/or connected to a laundry plumbing drain line.

I think Home Depot does classes like that, or at least they used to, on saturdays.

I've heard of mentees that started out cleaning up construction areas on a flip at the end of each work day or picking up supplies at Home Depot and delivering them to the job site.

Credit cards are tempting from Lowe's and Home Depot as they advertise 0% int. periods. 

Even if you do, how do you prove that a Home Depot receipt is in reference to the property the tenant destroyed?
