Real Estate agents here in Canada will always suggest working on the outside as a priority. First start with the inside of your home and make necessary changes without running into overcasts. Work from the inside of the house outward into the landscaping. Think of your home as a house. Detach yourself from the emotions of your home and make your house a valuable and marketable commodity.
First impressions are based on curb appeal. This term refers to how well the landscaping looks along with the outside of the home. Take a walk and look at your home from across the street. Take a picture and look at the picture. Is there anything that you could easily change that stands out?
When landscaping your yard do not invest your money in trees. Paying for pre-grown trees is not a good investment and you will not get your money out of this process. Mature trees add value and immature trees simply do not.
Try using flowers that have bright colors. Women hold a lot of weight when it comes to the purchase decision. Colourful flowers help to make women feel excited about what’s inside. Don’t waste your time with trying to grow flowers in time for your buyers. Simply go visit your local nursery and buy some healthy flowers that can be planted today.
Your lawn should be healthy with no moss. During the recent years that has been some great products that can grow grass in less than two weeks. Simply spread these products over your lawn and re-sod the grass so that it is thick, full and healthy. Give you home a quick pressure wash and paint. If you plan your day right you could get all this done within an 8 hour period.
Never forget that curb appeal is a big decision when a potential home buyer views your home. Surround yourself with people in the real estate industry that can give you a 3rd person’s perspective on what to do with the outside landscaping of your home.
