One way to Sell a House in Orange County

Real Estate Agents need Landscapers

A big word of advice for new real estate agents; advice that could be the difference between making the big sale and sitting with a property for too long. Pay attention to the landscaping of the property and ask yourself if it might be keeping buyers at bay.  Is the pathway to the home safe and unobstructed?  Is the entrance way inviting and the grass green? Are the plants pruned?  Is there a special hard scape element such as an outdoor fireplace that could become a selling point of its own?

Prospective Buyers will be drawn in by landscape elements

There is some debate as to whether or not a new landscape will increase the value of a home.  The jury is still out on this point though many say that landscaping a yard before selling leads to a significant ROI.  Your landscaping may not increase the selling price of a home, but it will certainly make it sell quicker.  That can be guaranteed.

Good landscaping or “curb appeal” is considered one of the top sellers for a home.  How a house looks from the exterior can be just as important to a buyer as what’s inside because home buyers do tend to judge a book “by its cover.”  In any market, a well manicured lawn can be the tipping point for home buyers.  In Orange County, landscape is especially important because of the pleasant climate.  People looking to buy homes in Orange County will be looking forward to enjoying their yard and relaxing in an outdoor living space.

What will make this landscape unique?

There are several ways to make your property stand out from the competition and look like the best home on the block.  In the realm of landscaping, Orange County homes are known for unique elements such as custom retaining or planter walls, outdoor fireplaces, patio covers and pergolas, backyard fire pits or waterfalls.  Any of these elements could easily present just the functional landscape piece that your client has been looking for.

Another landscape option to consider is drought tolerant plants because Southern California is a semi arid climate and water is naturally scarce.  Many home buyers are searching for landscapes with native drought tolerant plants, yet few new homes have this unique landscape feature.
