As we’ve previously discussed, simply adding a fresh coat of paint can raise a property’s value. Updating the kitchens and bathrooms make the greatest return on investment. But another factor to consider when raising a property’s value is its curb appeal.
We mentioned manufactured stone veneers, but sellers can also try landscaping. You can strategically plant native trees, which can reduce energy costs by as much as 50 percent, plus raise the value of neighboring homes.
Plant young shrubs and leave space for it to grow to full size, as this will help cool your property. Also, avoid installing synthetic turf as it can increase energy costs and degrade environmental resilience.
