If you are selling your home for sale by owner you will probably read and hear a great deal about the importance of repairing , de-cluttering and beautifying the inside of your home. Great advice indeed but do not forget about the outside of your home as well. Potential buyers will be looking at the state (and the potential) of your outdoor space every bit as much as they will the interior. Getting a professional looking landscape to improve your FSBO home's curb appeal does not have to mean paying a professional landscaper a fortune though. Here are some simple, easy to implement things you can do to turn your ho hum landscape into something quite spectacular: Start with a Clean Slate – Before you do anything else you have to do your basic clean up work. Mow the lawn and then keep it shorn for the duration of the time your for sale by owner property is on the market and you have potential buyers coming round to see it. Get rid of any leaves and weeds that are littering the landscape. Its important that you keep this up as well since many a potential buyer will drive by to take a sneak peek at your for sale by owner home before they ever schedule a showing so your garden and your home's exterior will really need to look good to make a great first impression. Fixing Flaws – Every garden has its flaws. Now that the basic clean up work is done it is time to take a good long look at your garden to determine what you want to highlight and what might be better disguised. You can plant new grass seed to cover up major bald spots on your lawn and smaller bare spaces can be filled with the addition of colorful shrubs or rose bushes. Alternately, you could make things even easier for yourself and add containers full of greenery and flowers to your front walk, outside your front door and dotted around the less appealing parts of your yard. Creating the best looking entrance to your for sale by owner home is crucial and container gardening is a quick and easy way to achieve that goal. If you really do have a disastrous mess in your backyard though you may want to consider calling in a pro to help you give it a bit of a face lift. If you need help finding the right local firm to do the job you can always head to a for sale by owner sellers resource like buymyplace.com.au who can refer you to someone in your area.
