The $1000 + per month does not include lawn maintenance. It assumes you do your own. You have lawn mowing $50 - $65 per month, Shrup triming ~$115 per 3 months (Does not include trimming tall palms), grass treatment for insects, weeds, and fungi, ~$65 every 2 months, de-weeding mulch and flower beds ~ $20/month. All of this can be done by the owner for considerably less cost and the numbers quoted may be trimmed by shopping vendors. Good luck!
