Don't pay for any services in advance, especially anything related to landscaping. Don't hire Service Smart for anything. Don't buy a water softener or filter system until you fully explore your options and decide that you really need it. You probably don't need it. If you have a new house, you probably don't need to sign any service contracts at all for awhile, except for maybe pest control, grass cutting, and fertilizing. But, again, there is no need to pay in advance or to sign an annual contract for any of these services. Pay as you go.
