Do you charge a fee for things like not keeping up with the lawn work or having trash in the yard?

Did she mow the lawn, clean the house, take care of snow, do all the repairs, manage it herself, etc.

And the leaf blower was just aggravating the weed seed situation, contributing to a lawn full of weeds.I ended up having to rip out half the turf, digging up all the bermuda, and replanting seed.Although I hate to have to do it, now I do my own yard maintenance.

What about lawn care, pest control and general maintenance costs?  

On the positive side they do take care of the outside and such things as lawn care etc which makes the upkeep easy.

Make sure it catches the eye when someone comes by....ie, it doesn't have to be Frank Lloyd Wright, however make sure the grass is mowed, no trash on the lawn, etc.

And just remember every property is different...from lawn care to plowing to flood insurance...each property will be a little special for expenses.Hope this helped!

Someone who rents you a lawn mower will pay a sales tax. 

Their fee is too high but that does not reflect on the quality of the advice.The LLC can help when you hire a local kid to mow the lawn, when you ask a sub-contractor to pick up some materials using your vehicle and other situations.

What about offering an incentive of lawn and landscaping paid by the landlord?
