Can adding a tree or two to your property increase the overall value of your home?
Green grass, a couple flowers, maybe some bushes, and of course trees are all common parts of the average home’s landscape. All of these features are important to curb appeal, and trees especially can make or break your property’s value. Your yard’s landscape is an investment in your home, meaning that your trees in some way, shape or form, have an impact on the value of your property. If you do not know or understand how trees impact your property value, don’t worry, because we’re here to help.
Curb Appeal and Aesthetics
One of the biggest factors in determining the value of your property is the curb appeal. The better your landscape looks, the more your property will be worth, which is why trees are so important to your property. Trees have the capability of adding a unique and dynamic aesthetic to your yard, making it look more appealing. By adding a pleasing look to your yard using trees, you will be adding value to your home and increasing the overall value of it that way.
Saves on Bills
Did you know trees can actually help you save money on your energy bills? Because they can! If trees are smartly planted, they can help cut back on cooling costs for the property by providing much needed shade for the hot seasons. They can also act as a protective wall against harsh, cold winter winds, which helps save on expensive heating costs. When this is taken into consideration, it is obvious how trees also impact your property’s value.
Bad Trees Are Undesirable
Another reason why trees will impact your property value is because there are certain bothersome trees, whether they be dangerous or dead, that no potential homeowner wants to be forced to deal with when they buy the house, driving the value of your home down. If any trees on your property are harmful, they will need to be removed immediately to make your property both safer and more valuable. Dealing with these types of trees on your own will be more affordable to do now, rather than driving down the value of your property until one reluctant owner settles on a price with you and deals with it themselves. Although, these trees should simply just be dealt with right away anyways since they do pose a risk to you or anyone else living or doing business on your property.
