Hi guys, Was wondering if I could get your input. Our first out of state investment has been a learning experience for sure. Our PM said we'd need some yard work and house cleaning estimating it to be $800 -$1000. I said ok. I just got the yard work bill of $3,000. I'm floored, especially for Kansas City, Mo. The yard needed some trimming and maybe a few bushes. It wasn't bad at all. What would you do in this situation? Or have any of you encountered this? I have an electrician friend in KC he looked at the bill and said this is more than an electrician makes in KC. 

Thanks!
