Don't Forget The "Jewelry" Of The House - The Exterior Lights!

By
Home Stager with Prudential Ambassador / Ross Designs, LLC

Most everyone understands the importance of curb appeal when selling a house. After going over the basics (lawn, landscaping, etc), don't forget the jewelry of the exterior, the light fixtures!  They are inexpensive to purchase and very easy to install, yet they can make such a positive impact on a home's appeal.

(Sorry the photos below were taken from different view points; we started this project in February which is why there is snow on the ground in the "before" photo).

BEFORE - smaller, weathered and dated brass finish

AFTER - slightly larger, modern and clean finish

Hi Tori! Great reminder  Makes a big difference just like new cabinet hardware in the kitchen.

Hi Tori,

It's even more important if you want to shoot your exteriors at night.
