Ways Sellers Can Show Off Outdoor Space<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take a close look at your listing from the eye of a home buyer. Are the bushes overgrown around the front windows? Has the mulch all washed away? Is the paint on the shutters fading?<\/p>\n

These are the questions Jon Coile, chairman of the multiple listing service MRIS in Rockville, Md., asks in a recent column at The Washington Post that aims to help sellers examine\u00a0the exterior of their homes. Here are some simple ways to solve common curb appeal issues:<\/p>\n

Stick to similar plant groupings.<\/strong> Aim for a continuous flow with a landscape. \u201cIt can often make small spaces feel much larger,\u201d Coile says. To do this, select only few different types of plants for the landscaping, instead of selecting a wide variety. The majority of the landscaping should consist of similar plants so the landscape doesn\u2019t look look broken up into too many different sections, Coile notes. Then, feel free to use a small number of accent pieces to add color and visual interest.<\/p>\n

Use visual markers.<\/strong> Visual markers\u00a0help draw buyers\u2019 eyes from one end of the yard to another. \u201cThe easiest way to do this is to lay a path that subtly transitions in the same places the yard does, at slight changes in elevation or where shaded areas transition to open sun,\u201d Colie notes. \u201cIf that isn\u2019t possible, then a few strategically placed taller plants, subtle decorations, or lighting fixtures can create the same impression.\u201d<\/p>\n

Show off the entertainment value. <\/strong>Show grassy areas where kids can play safely as well as places where adults can socialize, Coile writes. Consider these\u00a0features for an added touch to show the possibilities of a space: Fire pits and outdoor gas flames, outdoor speakers, or a wet bar near a grill.<\/p>\n
