Well done, Joe! I think we have a clearer picture here of how to possibly mitigate some losses. Thank you all! 

So Eric, that still plays more the hand that the month to month lease is preferred - correct? 

Rob, your post is truly helpful! Thank you! 

Are tenants still protected from eviction, under the CDC declaration, under a month to month lease? 

Thanks for your valued insight!

Thank you all for your valuable insight! I think there's a clear consensus here.  Thanks again!

Suzanne - after reading your response it dawned on me that this may differ by region. Home Depot is generally it, but a great place to start. Thank you!

The front yard of my investment property needs some love.  Now, I have a trusted landscaper ready to pull out the weeds and plant something hearty that's requires little maintenance; which is where lies the problem. I'm reaching out to the BP community to inquire as to what are the best low maintenance plants for the area pictured below.  Please let me know if I need to provide additional context and thank you in advance.
