I'd go with a professional company- they don't go on spring break, they have liability insurance....I've currently got a tenant responsible for lawn and snow at our first property (triplex) but I find myself stressing over whether or not the snow is getting shoveled, so I still have to go by and check (we'll get a fine form the city if it's not cleared from the sidewalks in 48 hours!)

Indoors will not be touched at all.So far I have gotten one quote of 6,500 including everything IE. replacement of sidewalk, returning the lawn and apron back to original condition.I should add it includes removing at least 1 concrete sidewalk and a small area of blacktop and the rest is just grass (my front lawn) The entire run to be replaced is about 40 feet.I know the work is very labor intensive which is where 90% of the cost is as the material it self is ~ 200.00.curious to anyone elses experience.
