As the saying goes, don’t judge a book by its cover – except, of course, when we’re talking about Real Estate, we all know Buyers do that exact thing! When buyers are home hunting, curb appeal can be a major factor on whether or not they want to take a closer look inside. Here are 3 easy curb appeal tips to set your listing apart from the others on the block.
Dazzle Your Buyers With Lighting
From taking the perfect selfie to making your home brighter, we can all agree that lighting is important. Not only should you ensure all light bulbs are working correctly, but make sure that your lighting fixtures are clean, stylish, and in good condition. If you have it in the budget, updating your light fixtures can have a large impact on your curb appeal.
Keep Your Lawn Trimmed
There is nothing like an unkempt lawn to turn away buyers! Tending to your lawn is important whether you’re selling or not, but ensuring your grass is healthy and regularly cut will be a big key to your success. If your lawn isn’t quite as green as you would like it, you can also spray your lawn with a green spray paint that is created specifically for grass and is both non-toxic and environmentally friendly.
Groom Your Bushes
Not everyone has a green thumb, but even if your gardens aren’t the envy of the neighbourhood, you can still ensure they are clean and well maintained. Overgrown flowers and bushes can be unappealing and turn away potential buyers, and taking care of them is simple. All you will need is a pair of garden shears and a little elbow grease and your yard will be in tiptop shape in no time!
Don’t forget!… The easiest thing you can do is to keep your driveway clean and clear. Make sure those recycling bins are put away and keep the driveway clear of garbage and debris including weeds.
The best part about summer curb appeal is it doesn’t need to be an annoying task you put off for weeks. Wait for a weekend where the sun is shining bright and the air is warm, and start checking these items off your list.
