Your house is up for sale, you’ve got viewings booked in and
you’ve got your dream home in your sights. It all hinges upon selling your
current home and there are several things you’ve been advised to do to speed up
the process. One of these you may not have considered is how staging your
garden could add that extra dimension to your home that sets it apart from the
rest of the market.
The Grand Arrival
You know yourself, first
impressions count, and the first thing a homebuyer sees is usually the
front of your home. The front lawn is the first thing a potential buyer will
see. A poorly kept, overgrown garden sets a bad impression, creating a negative
image to a home even if it has the most outstanding interior. Simple steps such
as keeping it trimmed, looking neat and like an opening space creates a
positive outlook which welcome a viewer into the home.

Out Back
When someone has viewed your home, the last thing they will
explore will commonly be the space to the rear of your house. The
back garden can be a key to clinching selling your home, especially to
those who have children or enjoy entertaining. A well-presented space to the
rear of your house will allow a viewer to envisage a plethora of things; their
children playing, a BBQ with friends or a night with the family sat around a
bonfire. These ideas will fill a potential buyer with a view for their future,
crucially in the house you are trying to sell.

How to Stage your Garden
A well-kept garden space could be simply; weed-free, plants
in bloom, a lush green lawn and a functional space which can be used in a
variety of ways. The question of how this can be achieved is key. Displays of
flower beds, hanging baskets and well-trimmed hedges create a pretty look and
draws the eyes, however it is important to remember that these are not the
functional space lots of potential buyers are looking for. The grass on the
lawn is the largest part of the garden, so is the most obvious to buyers, so a
well-kept lawn is essential. However, in selling your home it is essential the
lawn is well kept to showcase it as a space. Despite this, it is important to
remember that a lawn takes time to perfect, and if you are staging your garden
space and looking for a quick sale this may not be possible. One alternative may be artificial grass from Grono, which is
now widely available. Artificial lawns are also a positive to buyers in that
they offer a low-maintenance space which is functional all year round.

Staging your garden, both the front and rear, provides a
clear selling point to your home offering buyers a positive start and end to
their viewing experience and allows them to see themselves in your home.
