-Reduces input costs (fewer amendments needed for fertility and growth, much less water usage)-Easy to maintain and keep cleanCONS:-Can be very expensive to install properly-Erosion can be a serious problem if you get significant winds or rainfall and don't have a plan for how to handle it-If installed incorrectly, it ends up being more of a money pit than maintaining a lush green landscape.What's the current water usage like on the property you're considering for transitioning over to xeriscape?

We continued to transit through the area every few months for a few years after, and more stuff was in fact built all the time, but I don't expect too much value there.

Working on a deal now to acquire 10 more properties, and plan to transition into only acquiring multis to hold in 2019, but may still flip some SFRs.
