Gardens and the Power of First Impression

Tip 1

Landscaping when selling should include well maintained lawns that add curb appeal for their Australian dream home. A cost effective option is Kikuyu grass. It grows quickly with low maintenance and looks lush.

Tip 2

We plan your front garden strategically to maximise buyer appeal. They’ll be attracted to healthy gardens, but look for low maintenance options.

If there’s no trees we typically plant large broad leafed trees, this has been shown to add value. Although it wont grow to maturity before you sell the property, it still shows the potential to buyers.

Tip 3

Plan the garden with native shrubs and hardy plants that thrive in Australian conditions. These plants will be easier to maintain and look appealing.

Tip 4

We review the neighbourhood landscapes, if the neighbours have beautiful landscapes and your home has a garden with struggling plants and patchy lawns, it’ll turn off buyers who’ll think the rest of the property is similarly uncared for.

Tip 5

In the lead up to the sale garden maintenance and watering is imperative during open inspections and sale day.

Tip 6

Red Bark is our preferred garden topping, it creates a fantastic contrast against the green of gardens, more than that it dramatically stands out visually in videos, photos and advertising.
