Landscaping can add significant value to the resale price of your home. It can add 5.5 to 12.7 percent increase in the value according to the article I read from SFGATE.com. Not only does it add instant value it increases as the years go on, if maintained.
A well manicured lawn can look like a nice lush green carpet so be sure to fertilize. You need to have a landscaping plan so it all looks organized and not pieced together. Color is always good as well as variety. You can mix perennials and annuals to maintain a splash of color. Having a definite line between lawn and plant beds is also eye catching and you can also add color with mulch.
A well maintained yard sends a message to potential buyers that the owners care about their property and gives the impression that the inside of the home has been well taken care of.
