Homeowners often invest in upgrading their home and yards for their own pleasure and then upgrade even more when it’s time to sell—but sometimes the best value add starts all the way down the block.
Nearly all real estate agents (97%) believe curb appeal is important to attract buyers, according to the National Association of Realtors. But what happens when your neighbors aren’t as conscientious as you are when it comes to maintaining your property? It’s that fear that has helped fuel homeowners associations, which are notorious for their strict yard and upkeep rules.
“A homeowners association (HOA) that keeps landscaping consistent creates a sense of quality before buyers even step inside,” said Alex Platt, a real estate agent with Compass in Boca Raton and Delray Beach, Florida. “But in non-HOA neighborhoods, you might see beautifully finished new construction next to older teardowns, and that mix can directly impact value.”
The kitchen is one of the most important rooms in the home. It needs to be functional, aesthetic, and able to serve multiple purposes. These spaces can also be incredibly expensive to renovate, so most homeowners want to do it once—and do it right. With trend cycles moving faster than ever these days, the risk is that a kitchen may already feel dated by the time it’s finally finished. So how do you choose the right aesthetic? It’s often more about avoiding the wrong one.
