Did you know?

A well-manicured lawn appeals to homeowners when they look out their windows. But such a view also can look nice when homeowners peruse their bank statements after selling a property. Landscape maintenance, with an estimated cost recovery of 104 percent, and an overall landscape upgrade( 100 percent) also yield great returns for homeowners. The NAR¨ report also noted the effects of such projects related to homeowners’ desire to spend time on their property. Among homeowners who participated in the NAR¨ report and committed to standard lawn care service, 58 percent indicated they had a greater desire to be at home since completing the project, while 46 percent indicated they have an increased sense of enjoyment when spending time at home.
