Friday Five! 🖐

Landscaping is one of the top updates homeowners make while preparing their home for market - especially at this time of year! 🏡

Today, I'm sharing 5 landscaping essentials that will help boost your home's curb appeal and have it ready for market.

🌱 Lawn care: patch where needed, clean up edging and keep it freshly mowed

🌱 Freshen up trees, shrubs and flower beds by pruning and adding a new layer of mulch

🌱 Plant, pot or hang baskets of seasonal flowers for instant color

🌱 Add landscape lighting and pathway lighting for curb appeal and safety

🌱 Pressure wash walkways, fence, porch & patio

When you're getting your home ready to list, it's easy to come up with a long to-do list of updates or repairs that need to be made. Before you start painting your home or replacing your appliances, let's chat! What may seem like a priority now may be a minor detail down the road. 🏡

In the 2022 Home Sellers Report, recent sellers noted which home updates and repairs they initially planned on making vs. which ones they actually made before selling. The stats might surprise you!

For example, in the survey, only 34% of sellers initially planned on updating their landscaping, while a whopping 94% of sellers ended up taking on the project when it came down to it! 💯

As your agent, I can help guide you on your next steps. Based on your home's current condition and our local market trends, I can help you make a game plan for getting your home ready for market.

Ready to start your home search? This is why location is so important! 📍

You can change or update MOST things in your new home but you cannot change your location. You can knock down walls, paint, landscape, replace flooring, swap out kitchen cabinets, remodel the bathrooms, you name it, but you can't update your location. Start your home search by getting clear on your ideal location.

Start by narrowing down these 3 categories:

📍 Location 1: Start broad

📍 Location 2: Consider your daily lifestyle

📍 Location 3: Get specific on the home itself

Ready to find a home that fits your lifestyle? Call or message to get started! 📲
