Upgrading the exterior features of your home before putting it up on the market to sell is a superb idea, and usually a needed one to create more attractive curb appeal for the overall appearance of your front and back yard areas. Power washing the complete home, decks, and porches will be a good start. Touching up with paint where needed, and fixing anything like broken faux wood shutters and any loose shingles will need to be addressed too. If you have still have the original landscaping that the builder had installed when you purchased your spec home, then it's time to get busy. That complementary bush by the front door and the pencil thin pine in the middle of the front yard is just not going to attract may buyers.

Much like the interior of your home, the outside of your home needs to be perfectly staged as well. Although there are not any professional landscape-staging consultants that we know of currently, you can still hire an indoor outdoor design consultant to help you along with your project. A few strategically placed bushes, some fresh flowers, and plants in the flowers beds, and some key ground covering may be all that is needed to spruce up the front of your home. Knowing exactly what and where is the key, and if you have no experience in this area, let a professional handle this scenario for you.

Get in your car before doing anything else and slowly drive around your neighborhood looking for homes that have for sale signs in their yards. Examine the visual state of each of these homes, and how you feel when first seeing them. You will have positive and negative reactions to different houses as they are viewed. Now slowly drive past your house for comparison. Do you get a warm and inviting feel from the presentation your house makes to the public? If, not then get on the phone and get some help now!

Upgrading the lighting for nighttime curb appeal is also a small investment that will help you reel in prospective buyers that are looking for a home after work on the weekday evenings. Talk to your consultant about installing some selections from the Hampton Bay outdoor lighting line of products, as they not only make a welcoming visual display at night, but they are very ornate and have decorative qualities that stand out during day light hours as well. You could possibly turn an investment of a few hundred dollars in your home, into an additional five thousand dollars to the asking price with this little lighting project.
