Flower Power and Selling Your Home

I found a really great article about the benefits of using flowers to enhance your home so it sells more quickly.  The article entitled "Use FLOWER POWER to Sell Your Home" by Craig Schiller touches on some very good points.


It begins like this...


"Before you put your home up for sale in the market, do yourself a favor and take a short walk and a quick drive.

First walk across the street and take a good hard discerning look at your property and then, after your walk, take a drive around your neighborhood and look at how your home measures up to the rest of the homes… whether they are for sale or not. The better you home looks, compared to your neighbors and the neighboring competition, the better chance you have to sell."



He hits on these four primary ways to enhance your property using flowers:


1. Garden beds should be cleaned out, weeded and planted with plants that are appropriate for the time of year and/or region you live in.
2. Trees, shrubs and vines should be pruned and trimmed, and dead plants should be removed.
3. Lawns need to be green, mowed, weeded and trimmed.
4. Decks and patios are common to most homes. But a deck or patio that is actually set with furniture and flowering planters can instantly be seen as a bonus living area.
