Freshen up Landscaping

Now is the time to examine your lawn and landscaping. A big part of curb appeal is the grass, trees, plants and mulch beds. If your landscaping looks lush and manicured, Buyers assume the inside of the home has also been meticulously maintained and cared for. 

Address any bald spots on the lawn right now! That will give the grass a few weeks to come back or the sod to settle before the professional pictures are taken.

Trim tree limbs and bushes and spruce up flower beds with new mulch...after they're weeded of course! If you have any large oaks on the property (protected species here in Florida) start bagging up leaves. Depending on the time of year, it's best to get ahead of it before the property hits the market. It's a never ending process (again, ask me know I know)

Also, if you have any pet areas in the yard. I know it should go without saying, but MLS photos prove otherwise...keep those as clean as possible.

Taking care of these items now will lessen the load before picture day, and give you landscaping worthy of a magazine cover!
