Aloha,Before you request new proposals from a variety of vendors, you need to determine what, exactly, are your requirements.You should have an accurate total yard size, not "probably about"; how many linear feet of concrete edging; are there shrubs, hedges, or trees to maintain and/or trim around, and estimated sizes; other obstacles to work around or be cautious of; is loose trash, or excessive fruit dropping, an issue that needs to be addressed prior to mowing; minimum/maximum grass height expectations (address areas where scalping might be a problem, and how "rain days" are handled in terms of scheduling and charges); what type of schedule do you actually need; are you ok/is property suitable for using string trimmers for all areas, or must they use a push/ standard mower; bag and remove the waste, or blow it to specific area (that will not upset your neighbor); do you require periodic weed killer/fertilizer, and spot weed killer; is there/do you need an irrigation system to properly maintain some/all of the yard area (if so, the system should be checked periodically for proper operation and settings, and at every visit after mowing/trimming complete all heads should be checked to ensure none are broken); and most importantly, be sure your vendor has appropriate insurance to protect YOU in case of injury to your tenants, their vehicles, your property, or the workers, caused by their operation of rotating equipment or other job related efforts.

My property inspector is an advocate and taught me a lot.

Hi Ryan Moore In my opinion, it is not worth blowing up the deal over $350, unless you want to get out of the deal.

He is an advocate of texting.

@Mara Witt the impression I get is that you are blowing these issues off like they are no big deal.

No retrade provision, no inspection provision, etc.Do you have any family advocates that will support your offer?   

You don't want to unintentionally blow up your IRA.

Plus it makes you look professional to your owners and tenants so you can blow your competition out of the water.My second bit of advice would be to be very conscious of who you place in your properties.
