5 Tips For Effortless Curb Appeal

Want great curb appeal without the hassle of non-stop yard work? Of course you do – especially if you are planning to sell your home this summer. Check out Virtually Staging Properties’ 5 Tips for Effortless Curb Appeal.

Bring the Inside Out – Create outdoor living spaces to really show off the potential of your home. A well designed front porch, patio, or garden sitting area can add a lot of appeal to any size home or yard.

Choose the Right Stone – Stone is one of the most popular landscaping materials available. Choosing the right stone is an important part of making your landscaping design just perfect for your home. Consider using bluestone, which is very versatile and durable, and comes in many shades.

Choose the Right Grass – Depending on where you live, it is important to choose grass seed and fertilizer that is climate-specific. The same goes for your lawn, or for ornamental grasses added to landscaping.

Invest in Mulch – Mulch is one of the best secrets to healthy, attractive landscaping. Not only does mulch create a pleasing appearance, it also breaks down and fertilizes plants, prevents weeds, and protect the delicate roots from getting too much direct contact with sun and water.

Plant Perennials – Perennials are low maintenance plants that come back year after year without any hassle of replanting. Some popular perennials for vibrant color include Asters, Butterfly Bush, Chrysanthemums, Carnations, Daffodils, Hollyhock, Lavender, Peony, and Roses.

When it comes to curb appeal, you don’t have to break the bank, or your back, to entice potential homebuyers. For more tips and tricks, or to learn more about staging an outdoor space, contact Virtually Staging Properties today. Call us toll free at 877.949.9797, or fill out our online form.
