Who Handles Ongoing Garden & Pool Maintenance after Purchase?

Your materials describe a large lawn, tropical garden and pond, a private pool, Thai sala, and an automated sprinkler system, plus full furnishing and final inventory to be confirmed in due diligence. They do not specify who is responsible for ongoing garden and pool maintenance after settlement, what services are included, or whether any maintenance contracts exist. Since garden and pool upkeep can be recurring and vary in cost, it’s important to clarify these points before signing. Ask the seller or your agent for: (1) who will perform regular maintenance (garden care, lawn mowing, pond upkeep, pool cleaning), (2) how often services are expected and whether any equipment or spare parts are included, (3) whether there is an existing maintenance contract or preferred local contractor, and (4) whether you wish to assume these duties or arrange a transfer of service. Make sure any agreed arrangements are documented in writing as part of the due diligence materials and the settlement inventory.
