Landscaping ideas to increase the value of your home
- Plant a tree – Not only will planting a tree improve the look and feel of a yard, but it is appealing in regards to a home’s utilities. Trees can provide shade to a home and therefore decrease those monthly energy bills. Little details like this matter to home buyers.
- Pay attention to the lawn – Keep your turf green and disease free! Nothing looks worse on a nice lawn like brown patches and disease spots. Stay on top of seasonal turf issues for the best looking lawn possible.
- Take a step back – What needs to be removed? What can be cleaned up? If a tree has some dead branches, trim them up. If your bushes are looking a little unkempt, bring out the hedge clippers. Pay attention to detail and it will pay off in the end.
- Add a flower bed or pine straw around your trees – It can really clean up the looks of a yard and is fairly cost effective.
