With an empty or unstaged home, the first impression of curb appeal matters even more than usual. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Northville and Novi neighborhoods and we know that most agents agreed that curb appeal will add to your home’s bottom line. Here’s how to maintain curb appeal, even if you’re not onsite every day:
- Hire regular yard care
During the spring and summer, your lawn can go from tidy to untamed fast. Hire someone to mow it once a week or every other week in the offseason. - Trim back hedges
To trim and maintain hedges, most landscapers charge per shrub, or $6-$8 on average. This typically costs homeowners anywhere between $60-$75 per hour. Do it at least once for the sake of curb appeal. - Paint the front door
If your home looks a bit flat or plain from the road, repaint the front door in a bold statement color to stand out. The buyer will notice you’ve taken care of the property the moment they see the door, even if the property is currently vacant. - Lay down mulch
Not only does a fresh layer of mulch accentuate the landscape, it also keeps weeds at bay.
