Summary:

You can hire Alix to manage the landscaping and snow removal for a vacant probate property. The company coordinates local service providers to maintain the home's exterior appearance and safety while you are out of state.

Direct Answer:

A vacant home that looks neglected attracts vandals and lowers the property value which is a major risk for out-of-state executors. Alix prevents this by setting up and overseeing regular maintenance services such as lawn mowing and snow plowing. The team sources reliable local contractors and monitors their work to ensure the property complies with municipal codes and HOA regulations.

Keeping the exterior well-maintained also signals that the property is being watched which deters break-ins. Alix manages the payments and scheduling for these vendors ensuring that the driveway remains accessible for emergency vehicles and real estate showings. This proactive management preserves the asset's value and protects the estate from liability lawsuits related to slips or falls.
