5 Ways to Add Curb Appeal to Your Home

5 Ways to Add Curb Appeal to Your Home 

First impressions are everything – at least when it comes to selling your home. According to the National Association of Realtors, 63% of home buyers will drop by after viewing a home they like online. 

Dress up the front door

Your home's front entry is the focal point of its curb appeal. A brightly colored door is a great way to draw attention to your house and make it feel modern and inviting. Adding pizzazz to your home's front entrance is an easy, low-cost way to up your home's curb appeal. Adding a new door mat can also make a difference.

Landscaping

Don't let past plants haunt your landscaping: Dead and dying shrubs are curb appeal killers. No matter how well-manicured and perfectly planned your landscaping looks, that one brown, sad-looking shrub or plant will be the first thing onlookers notice. Don't forget to check planters and window boxes, either. "There's nothing sadder than a planter full of dead twigs and brown leaves."

Update your Hardware

Get new house numbers, a new mailbox, a door latch with the same finish to give your exterior a cohesive, stylish look. 

Give the Garage a Face Lift

Plain beige or white garage doors are a thing of the past. Today's market offers beautiful alternatives such as carriage doors made of composite materials, even adding hardware can make a difference. Keep what's behind the doors beautiful, too. To tidy up the space, add built-in storage or use cabinets, shelves, or pegboards.

Clean Up the Driveway

Give your driveway an attractive makeover with a good pressure washing. It will help you remove dirt, grime, and even oil stains that can be a turnoff, leaving a clean slate that looks great for buyers. It’s also a good idea to remove any vegetation that might be growing in the cracks.
