Let us set the scene:
You're in the process of selling your home, and you're doing all the research you can to ensure you get the best price possible.
Good call, {{contact.first_name}}!
Inevitably, you come across the concept of curb appeal.
You take a step outside and, oof, when did those hedges get so overgrown?
And when did that paint start chipping away?
No worries, once you passed the honeymoon phase, you became comfortable with your home, and it started to pack on a few extra pounds – totally normal.
And that never mattered to you, because you love your home :)
Be that as it may, when it comes time to sell your home, your home's curb appeal can have a significant effect on the asking price, and the likelihood that you’ll see it quickly.
So let's deep dive into some of the best practices for improving curb appeal!
The first step is to add some greenery.
Who doesn’t love the look of a beautiful garden?
Don’t worry if you don't have a green thumb – with a few planters, some window boxes, and a bit of creativity, you can have your home looking fresh and alive!
Use the plants to accentuate the key visual points like windows and walkways. Even one good looking plant arrangement can make a world of difference!
While you're at it, give the ol’ bushes a nice trim as well.
Mow the lawn, and sprinkle it with a little water love so the blades emerge green, healthy, and happy.
Next, give your front door a much needed makeover!
A paint job for your door should cost less than $100, and can make a world of difference.
Take a moment to clear out all the debris and cobwebs that may have accumulated around light fixtures and windows, and consider replacing that old busted bulb you’ve been neglecting to dramatically brighten the entrance to your home.!
Once you’ve followed these steps, you may even fall in love with your house all over again!
It’s always amazing to see what a little bit of TLC can do.
