Welcome @La Toya Flowers Butler ! 

Fix it.We eliminate as much landscaping as possible: we take out flower beds and most decorative features, ideally, lawn mowing is the only job tenants have to do, because we know that's all we can expect from most.

We have had duplexes with shared water, sewer, and trash billing, as well as shared driveways.The long term tenants act more like owner occupants, planting flowers, etc. and in some cases neighbors think that they are the owners. 

Continuing to plant fruit trees, flowers, agave cactus, etc.  

A more realistic expectation is 24 hours which will ensure we can arrange any repairs or corrections with a team, handle it in person, etc. be curious how this plays out as I worked for local developer for a while and developed several properties in Alexandria (Specifically old town) and while the city is challenging like any city - they were mostly realistic.

People interested in this type arrangement probably don’t have access to $150,0003.

Have a garden for food or flowers.

I think this arrangement can suit both parties, he wasnt going to be able to keep the house but can still live there for super cheap.
