SLDA Landscaping Associates - Planning Designing and Implementing

Home Selling

Recent stats show that new home starts are rising again. For those trying to sell an older home, that may not be good news. The key to home selling is home renovation and professional landscaping. Combined, they are the one two combination that can elevate your sales price and get more people interested in buying. It's no secret that the way to get the best price for a home is to get multiple parties competing for a home. A lone buyer can't be leveraged the way numerous buyers can be. Once they get their minds set on owning a home, it becomes a bidding war. A bidding war only occurs on a home that is truly attractive inside and out.

Home Selling Tips - Landscaping

Making your landscape and home work together makes your whole property open up giving the prospective buyer the feeling they are seeing more than just a house. This is one area where a smart home seller can differentiate their property. Your home selling goal should be to attract as many buyers as possible. You need to present your property as a comfortable residence with limitless possibilities for living. The buyer perceives that they are getting more for their money, a large property that uses every last inch, even though the actual size of your property may not be all that big.

Only a landscape architect and landscape designer understand how to achieve that overall affect. The overall affect of a more valuable home won't be achieved with a simple kitchen renovation or bathroom renovation. Those small improvements are often viewed as obvious attempts to hide imperfections and problems or demand a higher price. The new addition though is just a minor improvement on the overall property. The prospective home buyer still sees the overall picture. If the property is poorly landscaped, that overall picture is degraded. Without good landscaping design, the property feels uncomfortable, that it is doesn't fit right for the buyer's needs. The appearance may be sloppy and makes the buyer feel they're getting an unkempt property and the home is guilty by association.

Sure the intellectual type of buyer may look at the whole property with a critical eye to assess its real value, minus what it would take to fix it up. But most buyers have one quick look at a property and aren't always interested in sinking money into a fixer upper. Most buyers aren't aware of home renovation costs or landscaping costs. They may think they're very costly and just walk away from your property. If you keep these prospects interested in the property, they may help to create a bidding war which is where you'll get the best price possible. Keep more buyers in the game by improving the overall appearance of your home.
