The value of your home can depend as much on the exterior as it does on the interior. If you want to leverage your landscaping to increase your property value, consider ways to highlight the best characteristics of your home.

Improve Curb Appeal

When you look at the exterior of your home, pinpoint areas that could use a refresh.  Regular lawn maintenance is critical for curb appeal because overgrown lawn, unruly shrubs and weeds in landscape beds will decrease the value of a property. If your front yard has not been renovated in several years, it may need to be spruced up with new plants, mulch and sod.

Planting Trees

Trees are one of the most charming parts of a home's exterior. Choose tree species that will compliment your property color scheme and style. A few extra trees placed precisely can add privacy or create shade to help save money on energy bills in the summer. Potential buyers also love to see a variety of trees on a property. Always plan for the future height of any trees you plant and give them space to grow without impeding your home, the road or surrounding buildings.

Add a Paver Patio or Deck

Extend the space available for guests and entertaining to the outdoors. Patios and custom decks make perfect spots to eat and hang out with friends and family. They are also great investments that can increase resale value. Decks offer a slight advantage over patios, but they also require more maintenance.

Water Features

If you have the space and money to invest in one, a water feature is a tranquil addition to your property. Many water features including waterfalls, ponds and fountains do not require too much maintenance while boosting aesthetics.

Maintain Your Lawn

One of the most basic ways to improve your property value is to keep a well-manicured lawn. Lawn maintenance entails everything from mowing, fertilizing and weed control. If you have trouble taking care of your yard tasks, there are plenty of options for a lawn care company to help you out.

Upgrade Exterior Lighting

Installing exterior lighting on your garage, side doors, and pathways is a simple way to increase value. You can find a variety of options that match the style of your home's exterior. Lighting is also beneficial to the safety and security of your house.

Add Privacy with Landscaping

Strategic planning can turn a simple landscaping feature into a purpose-built-privacy screen. Functional additions, like hedges and shrubs, can turn parts of your property into quiet spaces away from the eyes of neighbors and passersby.

Outdoor Kitchens

Outdoor kitchens are a fun way to bring your love for cooking and entertaining outside. There are different features you can include such as grills, freezers, and so much more. Depending on your budget, you can also add unique appliances such as a pizza oven or smoker.

Paver or Decorative Concrete Pathways

Consider refreshing the hardscapes that lead up to your front door. If the old concrete of your pathways are crumbling, it may be time to replace them. The path up to the front of your house is one of the first things guests will see, so you want to make a favorable first impression.
