Thinking of selling your home and need some ideas to make it stand-out? Or maybe it’s just time to do some renovations and add some pizzaz? Whatever the circumstances, curb appeal is the first impression of your home, and it counts!
In the real-estate world, it is noted that potential buyers decide if they want to buy a home within 8 seconds of seeing it! This is huge in terms of curb-appeal.
Whatever your needs may be, we at P&R Property Consulting Group can help. From small maintenance jobs, to larger renovations, we can do it all.
Tips & Ideas:
- Plan in advance: Flowers and shrubs take time to bloom. If you know you are looking to sell in a few months time, plan ahead and plant seeds and shrubs that will be in bloom throughout the year. Seeds are of course less costly, and for a few dollars you can have hundreds of beautiful & colorful flowers surrounding your home.
- Refresh paint: You don’t have to have your entire exterior painted to make your house look updated. Clean and paint your shutters. Have your front door make a statement with a bold, yet pleasing new color.
- Power wash: A clean exterior and driveway have a huge impact on curb-appeal.
- Add new mulch: Flower beds look amazingly updated with a fresh load of mulch. The bright (non-faded) color helps everything “pop”.
- Create a welcoming entrance: Add solar lights along your front pathway. Trim bushes and trees. Flags and wreaths add some whimsy.
- Lighting: Make sure all outdoor lights are working and in good condition.
- Hide the trash cans: Unsightly and large, place trash cans in a garage or add some trellis/fencing to conceal them at the side of your home.
- Add flower bed edging and borders: Flower beds and borders add a ‘finished’ look to your yard and keep the mulch or stone in place.
- Make sure your house number is easily seen: A newer and larger home number sign makes your house easier to find.
With a little hard-work, the outside of your home will be welcoming and pleasing to anyones eyes without costing an arm and a leg!
