…. it’s an INVESTMENT!
There have been many
studies that show landscaping can positively impact the price of a single
family dwelling.
A Clemson University study found landscaping can result
in more than a 100% return on investment. The report concluded that “Homeowners
wanting to increase the value of their property will do well to consider the
cost-effective, return potential of quality landscaping, and to safeguard their
investments by hiring licensed, professional landscape contractors to perform
the work.”
.
A professional landscape
contractor should be educated and certified to help ensure that your landscape
becomes a long term investment not a potential liability. Also, The installation of 10 $100 plants from
a local garden centre selling products
suitable to our local climate will go a
lot further than 100 $10 plants from a box store.
Hardscape features such as
patios, decks, fences and trees will bring a greater return on investment. A potential buyer typically looks for
landscapes that is an extension of the home, not overly cluttered and looks
easy to maintain.
Spring is here!
Happy Gardening,
