Even those who are selling gorgeous Palm Springs homes for sale can benefit from making improvements to the property’s curb appeal. It’s one of the easiest and least expensive ways to give potential buyers a positive image and feeling of the property from the minute they get out of the car, especially international visitors considering real estate transactions in the United States. In our last blog post, we discussed landscaping, so now it’s time to advance to all the little details that will give your property a cohesive and attractive appearance.
1. Strive for symmetry. Perfect symmetry is very pleasing to the eye yet is very easy to arrange and achieve. To create a welcoming entry, aim for symmetrical balance when it comes to compositions of light fixtures, planters and other front-door accents. For example, if you choose sconces for lighting, make sure to have one on each side of the door.
2. Install outdoor lighting. Outdoor illumination is key for safety and boosting curb appeal, plus it makes for a very attractive esthetic. You have many options—from adding lighting to trees, the exterior of the house, the fencing or simply illuminating a walking path. If you have a swimming pool, which is very appealing for international visitors considering real estate transactions, then try to create an interesting lighting schematic that highlights the back yard’s features as well.
3. Replace hardware. Replace any hardware that is old, damaged (even if it’s from wear and tear) or out of date. This will give the property a fresh feel, while adding style and interest. Aim for a cohesive schematic, as collectively functioning pieces will appeal more than those that don’t match whatsoever. Elements that can add or detract appeal include the mailbox, house/address numbers and overhead light fixtures.
