The short answer is yes! According to ProprioDirect, exterior landscaping can significantly increase the market value of your property, by between 20% and 30%<\/strong>. However, it all depends on the nature and quality of the work carried out, the neighborhood or sector in which the house is located, and the quality of the materials used. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How much should you invest? What work should you do? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a general rule, it is advisable to invest between 10% and 30%<\/strong> of the value of your property. To establish how much to invest to maximize your return on investment, you need to : <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. First, establish how much you’re willing to invest<\/strong> based on your financial capacity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Consider that a landscaping project, like any other construction project on your home, is like a fine wine. The longer you let it age, the greater the return on investment <\/strong>(taking into account that the work has been well done with quality materials).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Once you’ve set your budget and you’re planning to stay in your home for a while, the next thing to consider<\/strong> is the landscaping of the surrounding houses<\/strong>. If they have beautiful landscaping, you’ll have to invest a little more, and vice versa. The goal is to have the most beautiful landscaping in the 2-3 coches neighborhood, if money allows,<\/strong> so you can plan to improve the other houses in the future. All this without exaggerating, since a neighborhood where houses sell for $500,000 is unlikely to sell for $1,000,000, so investing too much is like investing too little. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
