These days with the real estate market still in the doldrums in some areas of the country, it’s important to find ways to increase property value. For example if one drives through various subdivisions in a local area, it’s surprising how many of the homes and yards look identical. While installing a radical change to the landscape may actually make the home less appealing to buyers, adding some updates to landscaping can set a home apart from comparable properties. In the Monrovia, Irwindale and Covina areas in California there are some unique landscape companies that not only can beautify a yard with bushes, trees and flowers, but they can also install pools, waterfalls and other eye-catching landscape elements. Whether one lives in California or elsewhere, upgrading landscaping can help increase a home’s curb appeal and potentially its value as well.
Many people feel that upgrading trees and bushes is a good start when considering landscaping additions. These are relatively low cost upgrades that can add to a yard’s charm. Some people do away with a front lawn all together and use the area to install colorful plantings and evergreen bushes. Some of these plantings may need extensive care, but their display of color and variety can add a whole new attractiveness to a yard.
Another easy way to add interest to a landscape is to add rocks and boulders. Some non-native rocks can get a bit expensive, but the landscape pros can steer people to a range of stone products that are budget-friendly. Rock gardens featuring colorful flowers and trailing plants can really provide variety to a yard. It’s a good idea to take summer photos of gardens to show prospective home buyers if the home may be sold in the winter months.
If a homeowner wishes to add even more distinction to the landscape a waterfall is an excellent choice. Landscape companies can show people various types of equipment for creating the waterfall such as pump kits and filters. Next various types of rock can be discussed. Choosing a variety of rocks as a backdrop to a waterfall is one of the easiest ways to ensure that this landscape addition pleases the eye. To complete the scene landscape professionals will often recommend lighting to allow people to enjoy the waterfall area in the evening hours.
When selling a house homeowners walk a fine line between having their home blend well into the neighborhood and ensuring that its individual character stands out. Upgrading landscaping is a great way to add interest to a yard and create uniqueness to a property that buyers will remember. A few calls to local landscaping companies will allow people to get estimates for the work they want done. Some investigation of these companies’ websites can also uncover more landscaping information and ideas.
