How much money does it take to start a small one or two person landscaping buisness. this is without any college business credits. you figure one nice mower, leaf blower, weed wacker and all other necissary tools. how big a loan did you have to take out?
Answer
If you want to start a business you need commercial equipment. A commercial mower is a lot more than 2000. I recently bought a exmark turf tracer HP which isn't the biggest model made and it was about $6,000 When I bought a Kubota zero turn a few years ago it was 13,000 dollars. If you aren't doing commercial lots you don't need a huge zero turn. A walk behind will work fine with a stand on attachment so you don't have to walk. You have to locate a dealer that sells commercial mowers, you can finance the mower through them. If you want the best blower and weedeater you need to buy STIHL brand equipment. Our STIHL backpack blowers were 500 dollars and weedeaters were 2-300 dollars. Then you need your truck and trailer which could cost up to 60,000 dollars if you want a nice truck and trailer. I'd get a truck with a diesel engine in it, even though its more expensive the gas milage is better and they are a lot more reliable when you are going to be using them for heavy duty work. Then you need insurance which will be a few thousand dollars per year.
Lawn and Landscape work is a high demand industry. If you do good affordable work you will be fine.
Unless you already have contracts lined up you will need to advertise. People don't usually look in the classifieds first. They talk to friends/neibors who have had work done with a company and if that person was satisfied they will give the potential client your information and they will call you.

Answer
the MTDs at Lowes or the Murrays at Wal Mart are good mowers and inexpensive. Iev had an MTD and my Dad has a Murray and Id say theya re comparable. Both run well, star easy, and mow good so long as you dont go too fast.
Look for one with brigs engine and dont go too wide with your cut for best results (not over 48 inches)
