aeration and overseeding...
 
Is it OK to wait til spring With the flip property needing concrete work i'm probably going to use the opportunity to cut a better deal and have my drive done at the same time as it needs to be done too. I don't want to have the lawn service guys come and do the yard if the concrete guys will just tear a part of it up?

Is aeration and overseeding as effective in the spring vs early fall? Any opinions?:waiting:

I don't know, but I just thatched the lawn a couple weeks ago and over seeded last week. I figured it cannot hurt.

The best time is in the fall. Just make sure you allow enough time between the seeding and the first freeze. You want the grass to have enough time to germinate and establish itself.

Then in the spring you can set down a pre-emergent to help control weeds early on. Remember that a pre-emergent will not allow the seed to germinate.
