Even though the weather is getting colder and the plants in your lawn and gardens may be losing their color and life, you can still take some steps to increase your home's curb appeal.

When your home's curb appeal makes people want to tour your home and when it looks inviting and helps potential buyers envision living there, you will be able to sell your home in the Wellesley real estate market faster.

Cut Away Dead Plants and Clear Debris

Rake fallen leaves and clear sticks, dead plants and debris from your landscaping. This will give your garden a clean, well-kept look no matter what time of year it is.

Use Proper Lighting

Lighting can add a lot to your home's curb appeal. Make sure you have adequate porch lighting and consider adding some landscape lights to add lighting, interest and depth to your landscaping.

Add Garden Borders or Walkways

You can easily add garden borders and walkways to give your landscaping more character. Fall is a great time to do this project and the addition will increase your home's curb appeal.

Paint the Door and Install Extra Features

Give your front door a fresh coat of paint and add fixtures like a door knocker, shutters, a new porch light, planters and any other accessories that add something extra to the front of your home.

Dress Up the Front Porch

Create a welcoming front porch by setting out a doormat and decorations like a wreath, flowerpots and holiday decor.

You can increase your home's curb appeal this fall by making sure your landscaping doesn't look neglected, updating features outside your home and adding extra decorations. For more tips on increasing your curb appeal and attracting buyers, visit the Christine Norcross & Partners website.
