To sod or not to sod
My partner and I have a property in Boston market that we flipped that will be going on the market in a week and a half. Currently, the yard has dirt in the front yard and weeds in the side yard. Since budget is tight, my partner feels that it's better to leave it as is and let the buyer take care of it. She feels that in Boston market, people don't pay as much attention to the yard as other markets. I am thinking it's better to put the money in up front and lower the risk of the property sitting on the market. Any thoughts?

Can't speak to Boston particularly... but how many buyers scrolling through Zillow will skip over your house due to the front yard looking like crap?
Is the rest of the house 'move in ready'? Why wouldn't your yard to be too?
