If you want lawns and parking, I'd suggest the Northeast or Northwest.  

The property is in a smaller town where water is a flat fee (not metered for the property - shower once per year or water your lawn everyday - same cost). 

If $2800 is the market rent and the other landlords have tenants pay all utilities and mow their own lawns (that's what I do) then you can do the same.

Do you also believe it’s because of the plan of the big banks to starve the market and artificially drive up prices in Q1?

Petersburg submarket had the option of either increasing the size of their down payment to compensate for the fact that the house didn't meet the appraised value (artificially high values due to hedge funds' massive purchases) or look for a different, less expensive, house.SFHs were going for $400,000 for 2,000 square feet.

I met a guy at one of my newly purchased places and while I had met his boss at the City Hall (not Chicago, but a Burb), this guy actually went from vacant house to vacant house to remove sticks from the lawn and make it look decent.

Saves water and lawn mowing costs.

Arranged lawn maint?

My brother lives in Orange Park and is looking for a landscaper to re-sod his lawn and do some light landscaping.

-Keeping any common areas and the exterior of the building clean as well as cutting the lawn if there is one, here in WI of course, someone has to shovel the sidewalks and stuff whenever we get snow too.
