Cumberland has been pretty busy lately. We have gotten a lot of moisture up, so I have been mowing accounts alot more lately. Now about a month ago was a little different. At least it wasn't as bad as last year. It was more like a dust bowl then.

Hi,

I'm new to the area, I just moved up here from the South for the wife's job. I had a successful, fully legitimate LCO down there (100+ customers) and sold it when I moved. I enjoy the business and would like to get back in this spring. I'm living in AA county, specifically Pasadena. I was just wondering what the market is like here. Is it dominated by larger companies? Is there a niche for single Owner-Operated companies? Is there a large amount of illegal or otherwise unlicensed competition driving down prices? It may be a shot in the dark asking for information about a specific area, but I am trying to do my due diligence before plunging in. Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks

BTW, if anyone is trying to sell some productive accounts I may be interested and can pay cash.

Yes to all the above.
there are large companies, like Brickman and TrueGreen doing alot of HOA and government projects. There are also a ton of smaller companies, and then again, way too many nonlicensed, non insured part timers driving down prices.
You are in a very good location. Alot of industrial, alot of residential.
Anything near Annapolis would be high end residential.
I am about 1.5 hrs south of you, but know your area a little.

Good luck.
