Landscaping Tips to Improve the Value of Your Home |
 |

- Front garden: Increasing in popularity, this landscape
scheme is usually abundant with xeriscape plant material.
Be aware that if the garden encroaches on the municipal
road allowance, you must have a letter of permission from
the local municipality.
An extensively landscaped front yard such as the one
above could cause problems for potential home buyers if
it encroaches on the municipal road allowance.

- Gardens with water features: Having a brook, stream
or pond in your garden is certainly attractive, but buyers
with young children and pets may view them as sources of
danger. They may also be under the impression that extensive
upkeep is required. Homeowners should ensure their garden
water features meet all community code necessities. They
should also be sure to provide the buyer with a water feature
maintenance schedule.

value to your home, but homebuyers with small children may view it as a source of danger. |
