About to get CO for my new home and (of course) the I don't have a lawn
yet. I want to hold back an amount equal to the cost of hiring someone
to do it for me. I've got an acre with about 3/4 of an acre that will
be lawn. Can anyone ballpark how much that would be? I guess someone
would have to come in with a york rake and get the large stone/crud out
and then seed it.

Get a couple of estimates from some local outfits and pick the highest
one. That will add legitamacy to your claim and show dilegence on your
part if the contractor is backing out on his obligation to provide your
home a lawn.
York rake, scrape removal, topsoil, seed, straw... could be at least a
few thousand. Your jaw might drop at the cost of the grass seed alone.

The last one In retrospect dumping the salt OUT OF the bags into wheel
barrow ( clean) spreading around the pool with shovel might of been a better
idea, to bad I didn't think of that.
