​How To Improve Curb Appeal in Fall and Winter

11/30/2021

 
Picture
Selling your home can be an exciting part of the relocation process, but it comes with a list of challenges to overcome. Improving the curb appeal of your property is a task of utmost importance and one that changes season by season. In the cold months of fall and winter, bitter temperatures and inclement weather make it challenging to maintain a desirable appearance for prospective buyers.
However, this time of year can also present unique opportunities for making your house stand out from the rest of the neighborhood. Implementing a few home improvement tips prepares your home for the fall and winter housing market.  


Keep a Clean Lawn
Fallen leaves and fresh snowbanks romantically characterize fall and winter, but these beautiful scenes can be disastrous for home sellers. A clean and well-kept lawn is the foundation of a property's curb appeal. If your house is on the market, meticulous raking, shovelling, and mowing are a must. This can be a heavy workload for a busy individual, so it may be worthwhile to seek out a lawn care service in your area. These professionals can keep your grass clean-cut and clear away leaves, snow, and any other debris.


Tackle DIY Home Improvement Projects
There are great DIY projects that home sellers can take on to improve their home's curb appeal. Giving the exterior a fresh coat of paint goes a long way towards catching the eye of any passers-by. Warm colors can both blend into the fall scenery and stand out boldly against a winter landscape. There are also easy-to-install outdoor lighting options that can enhance your porch area or driveway. 


Invest in Professional Landscape Design
To really push a yard's appeal over the top, invest in a landscape design service. Professional landscape designers have the experience necessary to analyze your property's unique environment and conditions to make the best design decisions possible. They can work with you every step of the way to help you visualize the final product that your yard can become. To get the most bang for your buck, consider hiring a freelance designer rather than an agency. By browsing through the options on an online job board, you can compare the reviews and costs of experienced professionals in your area.


Utilize Seasonal Decorations and Plants
A few subtle decorations can put the finishing touches on your home's facade. The fall and winter seasons are ideal for showing off a house's capacity for coziness. Something as simple as a pumpkin on the porch or a festive wreath on the door can put the idea in a homebuyer's mind that this is a perfect place to celebrate the holidays with the family. Cold-weather plants, such as pansy flowers or holly shrubs, are perfect for filling any vacant spaces and completing the property's overall appeal.

Conclusion
Making the most of seasonal trends and conditions can really escalate a home's value, and all the more so in fall and winter, when significantly more effort is required to maintain appearances. Experts tend to recommend buying a home in the winter when housing is cheaper, and that means you have to work hard to maintain your property's value. Maximizing curb appeal is necessary for getting the most value out of your home during a buyer's market.
