Before the sale of a house, most homeowners like to do what they can to add as much value as possible to get a more significant price on their home. This happens most of the time through decluttering and adding features to the house to be able to give their buyers more. The one area that is forgotten, though, is the garden. Given that the garden for a property is out the back, homeowners forget that it's not a case of 'out of sight, out of mind.'

 

Potential buyers - particularly those with families - will always look at the garden as an important part of their choice. Everyone loves to get outside in the sunshine, relax and enjoy themselves, so it's important that you make sure that your garden is as appealing as possible for a potential buyer. Let's take a look at some of the best tips to add value to the outdoor space you are trying to sell.

Tidy It Up

Sprucing up your garden space is the first thing that you should do if you are trying to add value to it. You'd spend time on the inside of your home making it clean and tidy for people to view it, and you need to extend this to the rest of your home. Buyers could see the garden as more than just a space to entertain; they could see it as a space to relax, to grow food and for their families to play.

Add A Selling Point

Add Colour

Depending on the time of year that you are selling your garden, you could choose to add in some planters and flower pots stuffed with flowers of the season. Buyers need to picture your home as theirs, and colours invite people to look beyond the green and enhance the overall look.

A Lick Of Paint

A brown fence can look a little dull, so spend less but add more to your property by adding a good coat of paint to it. You can either re-varnish your fence or your deck or add some more whimsical colours and go bright to make your garden look as good as the flowers.

Style It Out

Furniture looks exciting in a garden, and you should add tables and chairs to create an atmosphere of relaxation. Furniture in the garden can project the image of relaxing in the sunshine for buyers in a way that blank canvas of a garden cannot manage.
