The first step in hiring a landscaping contractor is to determine the size of the project and budget. Once you have those two things nailed down, you can begin to narrow down possible contractors. There are many ways to find a contractor, but the easiest way is to look at their list of previous clients. You can also search for them on social media or ask friends or family members who they use and if they're any good.

Once you've narrowed down your search, call each company and talk to them about what they do, how much it will cost and how long it will take them to complete the job. Ask how long they've been doing this type of work in general, what their specialty is and if they have any experience with your specific needs (i.e., number of properties). If you're not sure what kind of experience they have, ask them about their education or certifications (if any) related to your needs.

Once you've found a few potential contractors, schedule an appointment for an estimate with each company so that you can get a feel for their pricing structure as well as their level of expertise regarding your needs.
 
When you manage multiple properties, it can be difficult to keep up with the landscaping. Hiring contractors to help with the landscaping can be a great way to keep your properties looking their best. Here are a few tips for hiring contractors for landscaping multiple properties:

1. Get referrals from other property managers. If you know other property managers, ask them for referrals to good landscaping contractors.

2. Ask for bids from multiple contractors. Get bids from a few different contractors before making a decision.

3. Make sure the contractor is licensed and insured. This is important for protecting your property in case of any accidents.

4. Ask the contractor for a schedule of services. Make sure you know what the contractor will be doing and when they will be doing it.

5. Get everything in writing. Make sure you have a written contract with the contractor that outlines all of the services they will be providing.
