It’s without a doubt that the more visually appealing a property looks, the more it increases it’s value. Here are 7 simple ways to spruce up your property and make it the envy of the neighborhood, and increase its value.

1.  Manicure the lawn by reseeding the bare spots, keeping it mowed, weeded, and edged.

2.  Keep up with the flower beds by mulching regularly and planting some colorful flowers.

3.  Trim the bushes, shrubs, and hedges at least three times per year.

4.  Plant some trees. This can also help with energy costs in the summer by providing shade, and the winter by blocking wind.

5.  Line the walkways with solar powered lights.

6.  Have your driveway resealed if needed.

7.  Adding some fresh paint to the house can go a long way for visual appeal and value.

By employing these simple tasks you’ll see that a little money can go a long way in converting a mediocre property into a gem. And, the results will definitely be rewarding in many ways.
