A bathroom remodel or a kitchen remodel will help sell your home, but landscape curb appeal will get your buyers in the door! Your potential buyers are going to judge the inside of your home based on what the outside landscaping looks like.
Here are the Top 10 Landscape Curb Appeal Tips to Help You Sell Your Home.
- Mow The Lawn!
I know this sounds like a no brainier, but you would be surprised
- Clean Up!
Clean Up debris, leaves, twigs, and garbage. Remove dead plants, flowers, and lawn. Remove dead pedals from your flowers.
- Green Up!
Add some fertilizer and water. Use a well balanced fertilizer with slow release nitrogen and micro-nutrients including iron. Just be sure to wash off the sidewalks.
- Trim Up!
Trim shrubs and trees. Remove limbs that touch the house or roof. Trim shrubs close to the house to show off the architectural features of the home.
- Plant Flowers
Add some color with native plants. And remember, white flowers show up in dim light.
- Plant a Statement Tree or Shrub
Try and keep it small and native. It doesn’t have to be 25 feet tall to be impressive.
- Add Low Voltage Lighting
Add lighting along walkways and spotlights to highlight that new plant!
- Add a Decorative Street Lamp
Right next to the mailbox or walkway; how nostalgic.
- Pressure Wash
Pressure wash walkways, porches, and driveways.
- Add a Water Feature
This could be as simple as a fountain or as elaberate as a small pond. Need some examples?
- Here’s a freebie. Sit Back and have some Lemonade!
Relax, enjoy, and watch the buyers be impressed.
