When it comes to selling your home, preparing the exterior can be just as
important as preparing the interior. The outside of your home is the first thing
potential buyers see, and it can greatly impact their first impression of your
property.
Luckily, there are several low-cost outdoor improvements that will make your
home more appealing to buyers.
First, consider adding some potted plants or flowers to your front porch or
entryway. This can help add some colour and life to your home's exterior, and
create a welcoming atmosphere for potential buyers. Even in winter, small
potted evergreens can have an impact.
Next, consider cleaning up your landscaping. This can include trimming
overgrown bushes and trees, mowing the lawn, and removing any dead plants
or debris. By doing so, you can make your home look well-maintained and
attractive to potential buyers.
You may also want to consider adding some outdoor lighting to your property.
This can include adding some solar-powered lights along your driveway or
walkway, or even adding some outdoor string lights to your patio or deck.
Outdoor lighting can create an inviting atmosphere, and make your home look
more attractive to potential buyers.
Finally, consider giving your front door a fresh coat of paint. Your front door is
a focal point of your home's exterior, and painting it will make a big difference.
If you’re changing the colour, be sure to pick one that complements the
façade.
These outdoor improvements don’t cost much, but will increase your home's
curb appeal, which is proven to help sell your property faster and for a better
price.
