OUTDOOR FEATURES THAT HELP SELL HOMES DAMIEN JUSTUS

Landscaping

It should go without saying your landscaping is the most important outdoor feature in your home . A closely cut lawn , trimmed hedges , and gardens that are well cared for speak loudly . It ’ s also helpful to have a pressure washed driveway , house , and a pretty front door . You want buyers to feel welcome , which is far easier when everything is clean and welcome .
Selling a home for sell by owner means putting up the best features in your home on your own . Outdoor living is popular no matter where people live , and playing that up almost always helps buyers sell . If you have something no one else has , you could be holding the key to a successful sale in the palm of your hand . Play up these features by adding a few if you haven ' t already added them , and watch as buyers salivate over the idea of so much indoor­outdoor living in their new home .
