In this day and age of fast paced real estate, one thing that has always stayed true in regards to landscape is that a professionally installed landscape, which is then maintained professionally will immediately increase your ROI. How much you may ask?
The American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) claims professional landscaping can add to a home’s price tag 15 to 20 percent more at the time of resale. ” Bryan Mackenzie, a landscape designer and co-founder of gardening advice site bumpercroptimes.com says, “High-quality landscape designs usually have an ROI of 20 percent to 30 percent of the overall house value.”
With this in mind, many homeowners are choosing to put their hard earned dollars into the hands of talented landscape designers and contractors to build outdoor spaces that add beautiful and useable spaces such as outdoor kitchens or patios, pools, etc. Even owners not looking to sell their home are boosting curb appeal by installing a low voltage lighting system or mature trees throughout the property.
Even if you aren’t looking to sell your home at the moment, a well planned and maintained landscape can add value and enjoyment to your home!
