Gravel or sod
I am nearing completion of a rehab/addition for flipping. The property is an older home in an historic neighborhood and backs up to an alley. Some of the homes in the neighborhood have put gravel in the backyard for offstreet parking. The yard is very small and I am trying to decide whether to put in Gravel for parking or just sod it. My thought is if I get a buyer who wants offstreet parking off the alley they can put gravel in themselves but if I get a buyer who has no interest in offstreet parking they would want it sodded. My guess is the cost is about the same whether I put in the gravel or sod it. There's plenty of on street parking. Interested in your opinions on whether you would go with putting in the gravel or just sodding the yard. Thanks.
