- Adding a pop of color with accent paint or brightly colored patio furniture gives you a more welcoming entrance way.
- Try adding inexpensive hardware to your garage door to give it a face lift.
- Window boxes or large planters are easy to change seasonally if needed and leave your home looking a bit more put together
- Hide any AC units or garbage cans behind a privacy screen
- Paint or stain your deck or stairs
- The lawn is often the first impression people have of your home.Remove weeds, unsightly bushes and trim overgrown trees.
- Add landscape lighting along walkways, twinkle lights on the porch or solar lights to your garden bed to create a magical glow after the sun has gone down
- Paint or stain any border fencing. A white picket fence can give the illusion of a larger yard.
