How Important is Curb Appeal Anyway???

Thinking about listing your home for sale??  Before you do, take a look at your curb appeal...even ask a friend, neighbor, or REALTOR to give you their honest opinion!

The curb appeal of your home is VERY important!  Today's buyers are looking online first, then driving by the listing BEFORE contacting their REALTOR to see the inside!  If you don't catch them online AND when they drive by, you have lost a sale!  Yes I know, you have done so many updates to the inside...and it's gorgeous, but buyers will never see it because they can't get passed the front door!

There are many things that you can do to improve the curb appeal of your home....and it doesn't have to cost a lot of money!  Simple things like tiling a plain concrete porch, adding some potted plants with bright colors, cleaning up and mowing the yard (yes, I know you would think this is a given, but it's not!), painting the front door, etc.  You can do a little or a lot...it's your choice, but you don't have to spend a lot of money to make it look like you spent a fortune!  I have a lot of great inexpensive tips for getting the most bang for your buck!  However, if you feel like you want to tackle a little bigger project, by all means...do it!  You may or may not get more value from the project, but you will make your house more marketable, which means it will sell quicker!

Here's some great curb appeal pictures.  Just remember, do a little or a lot, just do it!
