Curb appeal is everything, right? When home buyers are looking at a new home, often times the impact that the curb appeal factor can have will make all the difference in the world.
Having an exterior of a home that is well-groomed and beautiful to the eye not only enhances your own life, but can truly help your home sell faster.
Read on for some great tips on how to make a great impression from the curb to update the landscaping of your home.
Floral Variety:
Having variety in your garden of various colors and sizes of flowers will add depth and texture to the overall look of the lawn and home. Pick colors that match and align with the colors on your house.
Decorations:
If you are planning on listing your home around a certain time of year, holiday, or season, then match your landscaping with that theme. For example, if you are listing in December, adding an oversized evergreen wreath with some holly can really get buyers in the mood and picture having their own cozy holiday in that space.
Bushes, Shrubs, and Trees:
Adding greenery in the form of a bush, shrub, or tree to the space can help fill in spaces or gaps where grass may have more trouble growing or looks sparse. You can even think about adding a rock walk if there is a space where water has eroded the grass away.
Gardens:
Having a garden in the backyard of flowers or veggies is a great way to lighten the spirit and engage the potential buyer. Having an already-tended garden is a huge selling point nowadays for a variety of reasons. Eating healthier is a great trend on the rise and if your home has that feature, it can really attract an incredible buyer for you.
Furniture, Pools, BBQ set:
This is another great way to landscape your backyard. Having a pool or outdoor space where buyers can see themselves entertaining and relaxing is a great way to add curb appeal and functionality to the space. Just adding colorful patio sets and pillows will help spruce up the area visually.
