What's the cost of maintaining a villa
« on: August 10, 2014, 12:20:14 PM »
Just wondered if someone had ideas for a typical cost to maintain a pool and small garden on a detached villa. I don't need to know costs for the villa itself as already have a grasp on that, more how much it would cost us to keep the pool and simple garden maintained as we won't be living there
