I wouldn't have to worry about landscaping or fixing a roof in a condo complex.

Were the repairs specific to the property itself (pavement, landscape, a private website,...) or were they more unit-specific (sealing concrete blocks, replacing doors,...)Would you do this strategy again, flipping Storage to afford Apartments?

Will this be resolved if I bring in a landscaper to slope the ground outward? 

Where does lawn care and landscaping factor into the rental property equation?

Outside: Removed large tree in back, added and cleaned up landscaping, removed deck and poured new concrete deck, added new siding in places, replaced gutters and covers and replaced all lights, doors/storm doors.

It can be as simple as coordinating landscapers, cleaners and handymen, or performing each of those tasks yourself.
