Importance of Curb Appeal

Have you ever wondered why homes don’t sell?  Most of the time it does not have anything to do with the house itself.  Your residential specialists in the Denver North Metro Area, Jeffrey Harmes and The Harmes Team, believes this too.  Sellers make sure they have taken the necessary upgrades before considering putting it on the market.  But still, there are homes on the market that don’t get sold.  There was an article we posted some time ago that talks about what Curb Appeal is.  Keeping your landscape groomed and well-kept has something to do in getting your home sold successfully. 

Let’s say you have done everything, repainted the house inside and out, upgraded the floors, the fixtures basically everything that needs to be changed in the house was changed.  You may also contemplate on wanting buyers to be enticed by what they see outside and make them buy your home.  There are several reasons why instead of encouraging potential buyers to keep engaged and eventually buy your home, they get scared and walk away.  When your yard seems to be scaring off potential buyers, you have to stop and assess what needs to be done first before listing your home.   Jeffrey Harmes and The Harmes Team know this saves you time, effort and money.  

Making sure your yard is clean and presentable does not require you to have a huge landscaping job done on it.  It is important to keep your yard well maintained.  Rake out the leaves, empty the gutters, trim the shrubs and make sure your grass is regularly mowed and watered.  If you want a makeover of your yard before you even put it up for sale, consider making it a project that you can work on one portion at a time.

In taking on a project like landscaping your yard, Jeffrey Harmes and The Harmes Team strongly suggests you must match the kind of home you have with the type of landscaping you will do.  This would mean, aside from choosing a design, you should also match the trees and plants to put in your yard.  Grass is essential and by far the most practical.  This needs constant mowing but when matched with other plants your yard can look like it was done by a professional.  Edging is helpful with grass on your yard.
