It is simple and normally does not cost much money to increase curb appeal for your property. In addition to increasing the value of your home by having great curb appeal, your neighbors may thank you too!
Put fresh mulch down in flowerbeds
A quick and easy way to increase the curb appeal of your home is to put fresh mulch in the flowerbeds. Mulch can come in a variety of colors and styles, therefore, there is something for everyone. If you are looking to spend more and forego traditional mulch, there are options such as stone and lava rock.
Pressure wash driveway and home
Another easy way to add instant curb appeal to a home is to pressure wash the exterior of your home. If you do not have a pressure washer they are relatively easy to rent from a place like the Tool Rental at Home Depot. There are also plenty of companies that offer pressure washing.
Put new sod down
This is a more expensive option, but sometimes it is necessary. Sometimes there are just a few dead spots in the yard and a few pieces of sod can be put down, rather than putting fresh sod down in the whole yard.
Paint the door
A fresh coat of paint on the door can make it look brand new. Sometimes doing a bold color makes the home memorable to prospective buyers.
Get a new mailbox
Mailboxes are readily available and easy to install. Sometimes a mailbox is the first thing a person sees and they will notice if it is dirty and not stable in the ground.
Plant fresh flowers in flowerbeds
Fresh flowers in the flowerbeds is an easy way to make your house look attractive. Make sure that you choose flowers that are suited for the climate and the moisture level in the soil.
