Are you selling your home or thinking ahead to when you eventually will? Focusing on the curb appeal of your home during your renovations and remodels can help to push up the value of your home and make it more attractive to buyers, helping you sell faster and for more. Here are some of the best ways to boost your home’s curb appeal.
Add lighting
Outdoor lighting can add to the aesthetic of the front of your house, enhancing features and creating attractive contrasts, and it can also appeal to buyers in terms of safety, especially if they’re viewing your home after dark. A light outside your front door can make your home feel more welcoming.
Keep things clean
You don’t necessarily need to make big renovations to improve your home’s curb appeal; simply sprucing up the place can help. Sweep the paths leading up to your front door, clear debris from the gutters and roof, clean your front door and garage door, clean your windows, and power wash your driveway and paths if needed.
Add greenery
If you have a front yard, then giving this some care and attention can have a big impact on your home’s curb appeal. Keep the lawn mown and tidy, and plant flowers and shrubs around your lawn to add some color and attractive elements. If you don’t have a front yard, then adding some potted plants or hanging plants outside your front door can add to the appeal, making it look more welcoming and attractive.
Enhance your front door
Your front door also has a big impact on how welcoming your home is on first impressions. If your door is looking old and tired, then consider replacing it or simply refinishing/repainting it. New hardware such as door handles, knockers, and house numbers can also enhance this entryway.
A new garage door
Your garage door takes up a lot of visual real estate at the front of your house, meaning it can really impact the first impression someone has when passing by or pulling up to your house. So, a new garage door can do wonders for your curb appeal. Choosing a garage door that complements the rest of the front of your home can make your house look more appealing to buyers. Or if you can’t invest in a new door, then something as simple as repainting or refinishing your door can make a difference.
