How to Renovate a House (with landscaping)

What happens here

Once all major removal and mulching are complete, perform a meticulous final cleanup of the entire property. This includes thorough mowing of all lawn areas, precise weed-whipping along edges, and removing any remaining stray debris or weeds. The goal is to ensure the property is completely tidy and presentable. Reiterate to the client that this level of cleanup is essential for attracting buyers and achieving a successful sale, even if it exceeds their initial budget. A property in the $100,000-$200,000 range, especially a flip, must be impeccably clean to sell well.

Goal: Achieve a pristine, 'turn-key' appearance for the entire property.

  • Gloves — Hand protection
  • Lawn Mower — Cutting grass
