A couple more options:

Buy a lawnmower and an edger if you don't already have one, and mow your own lawn. The lots here are very small and a well-maintained mower with decent horsepower can keep it tidy without much effort. Edgers are even easier to use once you get the hang of it.

If you're buying a pre-owned home, decide if you like how it's been maintained up til the time you moved in. If you like it, use whatever service the previous owners used. They will know your property's lawn and landscaping needs better than anyone else.
