Increase Your Curb Appeal
by

You wouldn’t go on a first date without looking your best, and your house shouldn’t be sold without looking its best, either. When it’s time to sell your home, small changes can make a big difference – curb appeal can increase your home’s value by 5-10 percent! Wowza. Plus, over 80 percent of real estate agents have had potential buyers decline to look at a house solely because of its exterior.
Note: If selling your house isn’t in your near future, think of these tasks as investments. If you decide to sell down the road, the work will already be done.1. Upgrade the house number. A house number can do more than let the pizza guy know where to deliver your pepperoni – it can show style and add major curb appeal points. If someone has to look hard to find your house number – or it hasn’t been updated since the ‘70s – head on over to the hardware store and do some shopping. Tip: Try out this DIY numbers project for an industrial, modern look.
