You’ve heard the term “curb appeal.” You don’t need to have a green thumb to make some simple changes to your yard which will delight your potential buyers. A weekend project is all you need to make these easy landscaping and yard changes.
- Add color; seasonal flowers in pots by the front door or beds in the front yard add brightness to the home
- Native plants; create a lower maintenance environment with native plants who thrive in your area
- Outdoor lighting; with so many solar options, it’s easy to add a glow
- Garden accents; fountains, benches and garden art create interest and a sense of luxury
- Vegetable and herb gardens; consider a raised bed in a portion of the yard or large pots filled with tasty plants
- BBQs and furniture sets; while more expensive, adding furniture arranged to showcase the outdoor lifestyle will appeal to buyers and enhance your yard
As the weather becomes warmer, buyers naturally spend more time in the yard. Give them a reason to imagine themselves enjoying this summer in their new home.
Even better, if you decide to sell your home within the next year, these will make your listing that much more appealing than others.
