Curb Appeal Pays Off When Listing Your Home

by Bruce Griffy

First Impressions go a long way when Selling your home. Curb Appeal will hook a buyer, enticing them to want to see more. Having a degree in Landscape Design and a lifelong love for landscaping, I'm partial to a well maintained Lawn and Landscape. It's the welcome mat to your home.

I have taken several clients to showings and after seeing the landscape, they didn't want to go inside. Don't under estimate the value of an alluring landscape.

To add Curb Appeal before Listing your home, I have four recommendations:

Standard Lawn Care Service- Six applications of fertilizer and weed control per year.
Landscape Maintenance- Mulch, mow, weed control, prune trees and shrubs along with planting perennials or annuals.
Irrigation System- Make sure your irrigation system is working properly including the timer and sprinkler head coverage.
Pressure Washing- Pressure Wash your house, driveway and sidewalks.

Please give me a call if you need help getting your home ready to Sell!
