Default Builder's Landscaping - or lack thereof

OK, everyone who buys a new home will have this problem.
The builder's landscaping just isn't really any good.
I can save a few things perhaps, but all the ligustrums and hollies that are up against the next villa.. that grow and grow and grow.. need to be gone.

I want something
tropical
low maintenance
affordable
drought tolerant

suggestions welcome, I'm reading the books and links posted on the other thread,
but personal experience counts for a lot
