It would Take a bit of re-seeding in the patchy areas (which I already had started doing, but spring in Washington can be sunny one day- snow the next) remove the two dead shrubs  (died because of where they were planted- no sunlight under a big oak tree, the other 6 in the line are fine) and a bit of just pruning back some of the bigger bushes.

.• Not remove any part of the structure, dwelling unit, facilities, equipment, or appurtenances, or allow anyone else to do so.• Use the premises as a place to live, and use the rooms for their intended purposes.For example, the bedroom must be used as a bedroom, and not as a kitchen.94• Notify the landlord when dead bolt locks and window locks or security devices don’t operate properly.95However, a landlord may agree in writing to clean the rental unit and dispose of the trash.96If a tenant violates these requirements in some minor way, the landlord is still responsible for providing a habitable dwelling, and may be prosecuted for violating housing code standards.

And can also provide invoices.But also in their terms:Note: If you cancel multiple reservations, your listing will be temporarily deactivated and removed from search results.I just don't know whether that means I can't book new listings, or if ALL listings are removed and voided, which is killer

As an example for your "demolition" section, I'd figure out how much square feet (SF) of wall needs to be removed and show it on your sheet as $/SF.That way when you're done with the project you can go back to your original estimate and enter in the ACTUAL costs and compare to your estimate.
