Landscaping
Makes You Money
Most all homeowner improvements will
directly increase the resale value of your home.
Whether it's a new kitchen or new siding and new roof, you
will get back your investment when it comes time to sell
your home. However, most of the time, people overlook
one of the most important aspects of home improvement.
Yes, it's landscaping. When people decide to renovate
their homes, landscaping is always at the bottom of the
list. While landscaping should be the last item
completed during a home renovation, it should not be
the least of your concerns while planning a renovation.
Yes, a kitchen and bathroom are very
important during a renovation but they are not the first
items people see when pulling into your driveway. They
now have a show named after your one chance on a first
impression...Curb Appeal. If a prospective buyer is
pulling into your driveway and is immediately turned off by
the outside of your home, they will have a negative attitude
as they enter inside.
To a buyer, a professionally landscaped yard
could be the deciding factor between your house and somebody
else. This is why real estate agents put
professionally landscaped yard in top of their ads.
Proper landscaping can increase the value of your home by
15%. It is quite common to get back 150% of your
landscaping investment when you sell your home.
While shrubs and bushed look great,
landscapes can give you more useable outside space. A
patio or walkway can add another dimension to your existing
landscape. When planning a landscape renovation,
landscapes should be added to almost every design.
So when your thinking about renovation, make
sure you talk to a landscape
professional about landscaping. Especially if you
are in the market to sell your home, it's the first and last
thing a prospective buyer will see. Most importantly,
don't think of it as a nuisance or unforeseen
expense...think of it as an investment.
