Work with nature to help property values thrive
If you’re planning to put your property on the market, the importance of presentation cannot be overemphasised — and never more so than in the garden.
An appealing outdoor zone and landscaped gardens can hugely increase the value of your home, which is why prospective sellers should start putting their green thumbs to good use now.
An independent real estate agent survey estimated that
*90% of potential buyers say a nicely presented lawn improves the look & feel of the property
*45% confirm it adds lifestyle & relaxation appeal
*42% rate it as a safe area for the kids to play
Rather than leaving it to the last minute, you can start tidying up your yard today to avoid unnecessary maintenance bills and have a great deal of satisfaction in knowing you have made your mark in creating a better living environment. Organise family and friends to lend a hand in a working bee, and then kick up your heels and celebrate afterwards.
The desire for outdoor/indoor living means most buyers view the garden as an extra room.
I’m available during the week, after work or at the weekends to give you advice on how to present your property for sale in the best possible light.
