Improve your South Tampa FL home for sale's curb appeal with these amazing tips.

1. Build a garden

Your garden does not have to be Versailles-like to make your home attractive. There are instant gardens that you can create in no time. More importantly, they don’t cost a lot. You can buy ready-made containers sold in garden centers. Asymmetrical landscapes create a more dynamic look.

2. Change old gutters and downspouts

An old gutter system may be the main cause of peeling paint and rust spots. Replace old systems with new ones, preferably copper systems to create high quality look.

3. Repaint

Repainting is probably the easiest and fastest way to refresh a home’s exterior. Choose a classic color like beige or colors in trend. Pantone, the global authority on color announced the nine key color and design themes for 2014: Techno Color, Physicality, Sculpted Simplicity, Fluidity, Collage, Intimacy, Moda, Tribal Threads and Eccentricities.

4. Glamorize your front door

The focal point of your home’s curb appeal is the front door. Make your door stand out by painting it with a striking color and place moldings around it. Make the fixtures and knob sparkly clean by using metal polish.

5. Repair or Replace Siding and Trim

Repair cracks or rotting material on your home’s exterior surface to instantly improve its look. If the damage is too much, better replace them with new ones.

6. Install outdoor lighting

More than providing safety and security, outdoor lighting can greatly influence the curb appeal of your . Place fixtures that shine light on the walking path and the trees to create a dramatic look.

7. Build a walkway or upgrade an existing one

Beautifully designed walkways always get a second look. Build a contoured rather than a straight path for more drama. Apply a colored concrete resurfacer on an existing walkway then edge with brick or stone borders.

8. Add an outdoor piece of art.

Adding a weather-resistant artwork in your yard will add an attractive look and spark interest for home viewers. Choose one that is unique and complement your home’s natural palette.

Spruce up your South Tampa home’s exterior and sell your property sooner than you think! You can draw more buyers to check out your home among the many  if your curb appeal looks irresistible.
