Are you looking to sell your house? Do you want to increase its resale value? Whether you are looking to sell your property for the greatest possible profit, or you just want to make improvements to your home to make it more livable and comfortable, garden landscaping is the solution for you.

How Can Garden Landscaping Improve My House Resale Value?

Research has shown that quality-landscaped homes have a significant price advantage over homes with no landscaping. This advantage ranges from 13 to 20 percent on the overall resale value! Outdoor and garden landscaping can translate into thousands of extra dollars in value on your house. Landscaped properties sell, on average, six weeks faster.

In a constantly changing and uncertain real estate market, it’s wise to exert as much control as you can over the profit your home may be able to generate.

What If You’re Not Looking to Sell Your Property?

Perhaps you’re not looking to sell your house in the near future, or at all. This does not mean that garden landscaping cannot reap monetary benefits for you too. Aside from improving your outdoor living area and making your house a more attractive and comfortable place to retire to, well-designed landscaping can actually work to reduce your heating and cooling expenses. A landscaping design that incorporates shading trees and insulating hedges near sun-exposed windows can reduce energy usage by nearly 20 percent.

Another benefit of effective garden landscaping is that it can also increase the privacy and security of your property.

Why Professional Help Is Important?

To get the maximum benefit from outdoor landscaping, it is important to make sure it is a well-planned, correctly installed and maintainable design. By enlisting a professional service to help you transform your outdoor area, you can be sure that they will have a skilled understanding of how to utilise the environment to get you the best results. For example, a landscaping contractor will know what types of plants to use and where to place them in your garden in order to ensure functionality and style.

The cost of hiring a professional would be minor in comparison to the cost of removing and replacing improperly installed landscape features.
