We rented at first, but the rental situation in our new town was poor. While we were still renting an apartment, I researched areas with lower property taxes, scouted out my ideal neighborhoods, and waited for a smaller, less expensive house to come on the market.

My spouse and I have gained quite a bit of experience planting bushes, trees and flowers over the years.

Autumn is also the perfect time to plant shrubs, grind stumps and aerate your lawn.
