Closing down and preparing an estate for sale in Connecticut. Trees require maintenance too.
Where would we be without TREES?....Trees have provided peaceful places where great minds could think the deep thoughts that changed the world. I daresay that if Sir Issac Newton had not had a quiet fruit tree to contemplate 
under, he may not have discovered gravity, leaving us seemingly cemented to the earth for no apparent reason at all. Trees have been used as meeting places for young courting lovers. It is entirely possible that you may not even have been born if your grandmother sat under the apple tree with anyone else but your grandfather.
Most of us take the trees all around us pretty much for granted. They seem to operate on their own, without much input or effort from us at all. Year in and year out there they are, providing cooling shade in the summer and splashes of spectacular color in the fall. But, the truth of the matter is....There is no free lunch. Even these quiet giants need attending to every now and then.
Fairfield County Connecticut has many beautiful towns, all copiously covered with numerous varieties of trees. Most properties have hundreds of them. They can add significant value both monetary and aesthetic, especially if they are properly cared for. A good arborist, who focuses on the health and safety of individual trees, is worth their fee. Ask around to see who the neighbors use or, check the local nursery.
I was startled into this topic today by the fallen branch I found in my yard this morning. The branch, while not enormous, was large enough to do some serious damage to, or even kill a person. The fact that it fell squarely in the
middle of my back patio where my friends and family socialize, eat and play is frightening. Any of the six or seven people who have read my blogs know from my signature photo, that is where I sit feet up and fireside. Had I been out there last night....who knows what could have happened?
I regularly scan the tree canopy to seek out these woody bombs. In this case it was not visible from my terrestrial vantage point. In the ten years I have lived here, I have had dead branches removed and questionable ones thinned out, at least twice. I guess it is once again time to call the tree guys.
When an executor or trustee calls on us to help with an estate close out, estate clear out, estate clean up and estate property fix up's, we provide them with a detailed assessment of what needs to be done. Often, we find that the trees on the estate property have been neglected for a long time. We will get the right people to correct any problems, and add value and curb appeal to the estate property tree line.
Catch the eye of those picky buyers
