Curb Appeal that Sells: How a Beautiful Lawn Can Help You Close Faster
A home’s first impression is often its lasting one, and nothing makes a stronger first impression than a beautiful lawn. Whether you’re preparing to list or already on the market, curb appeal can dramatically affect how quickly your home sells and at what price.
Why Curb Appeal Sells Homes
Real estate studies show that homes with strong curb appeal can sell up to 10% faster and for 5–12% more. A well-maintained lawn sends an immediate message: this home is cared for.
Lawn Care Before Selling
Focus on:
-
Deep green, healthy turf
-
Edged borders along driveways and sidewalks
-
Full coverage with no bare or brown spots
-
Weed control for a clean, polished look
ROI of Landscaping
Even a $500 refresh with seeding, mowing, edging, and fertilization can raise perceived value significantly. It’s a fraction of the cost of interior upgrades with outsized impact.
