Fix my rental’s sprinkler??

I have a 3-2 in a solid neighborhood. I would say B- C+ neighborhood. It had a sprinkler system when I bought it. It needs some repair and re doing in some spots. I would say 1k to be done right with some new zones. Well works fine and pump. And I’ve spent 250 already. Does not affect me getting tenants. I had 22 showings in 4 days and 4 application in. Thoughts?

When you say sprinkler system, do you mean fire sprinkler, or lawn? If fire, by all means get it fixed. If lawn, meh...I would just turn it off and let nature take care of your lawn.
The fact that someone once installed a sprinkler system and now it's a B- neighborhood doesn't sound promising for the direction.
