Selling your home is one of the most exciting and stressful moments in a homeowner’s life. While you definitely have to worry about how the inside of your home looks for prospective buyers, the outside of your home is probably the most important aspect of the sale.

If your curb appeal is bad, your home may not garner any interest from potential buyers. Here are some landscaping and lawn care tips from Dallas professionals that can help you make your home have the visual appeal it deserves.

Spread Out Some Mulch

Color is your best friend when it comes to selling your home. So, leave no stone unturned and spread some bright mulch over your flower beds and visible soil.

Bark mulch comes in a variety of colors and can add a pop of vibrancy, while still providing essential nutrients to your soil.

Keep Your Lawn Mowing Schedule

The last thing you want to do during a sale is to let your lawn go. Unfortunately, with the buzz of moving in the air, it’s easy to make this mistake.

Make sure to speak with a lawn care professional and find out if they can take care of your lawn mowing needs for you. Not only will this guarantee that your lawn remains well-cut and clean, but it will also ensure that your lawn is cut at the right height for its type and season.

Every type of grass is unique and requires a different approach to maintenance. A lawn care expert can help keep your lawn looking its best during this stressful time in your life.

Plant Colorful Seasonal Plants

We recommend planting seasonal plants that thrive in the Texas weather and will quickly catch a guest’s eye. Clear out any dead flowers in your beds and replace them with vibrant plants like the following Texas favorites:

  • Hibiscus
  • Cape Plumbago
  • Cosmos Bipinnatus
  • Celosia Cristata
  • Texas Bluebonnets

We guarantee that planting any of these flowers in your beds will provide instant color that real estate agents will gravitate towards.

Keep Your Lawn Clean

You’ll want to make sure that your lawn always looks like it was just maintained. So, take some time every week to visually sweep the area and be on the lookout for leaf piles or weed growth. Get rid of these eyesores as soon as possible because if you don’t, your home will definitely have a hard time getting any sale off the ground.
