They have poor landscaping, poor curb appeal, poor fencing, poor parking lot, poor siding etc...

WHAT A WIN for curb appeal. 

Long story short these properties don't have the best curb appeal.

Curb appeal for your property is week and these things aren't helping. 

Hi Anuja,There are a number of simple improvements that can be easily done to create some much-needed curb appeal, beyond just a paint job.NO!

Jeff, here is the main difference between now and then: In the years that followed 1991, inflation kept in check by curbing salaries (Income) and extending credit.

I have done some research and found out that 2 of them are still in court, and 1 has nothing on it.The 2 homes that are in the foreclosure process are in a nice neighborhood, and other then a lot of weeds growing around them they would have some really nice curb appeal.

I've also heard (and it makes sense) that you should complete the Exterior first to gain the curb appeal to generate early interest.Well...I have a craftsman style house and the top half of the house is aluminum siding.

I will be closing on a gorgeous little brick ranch on Tuesday and was tossing around ideas of how to spruce up the curb appeal a little bit.

If you can paint instead or decorate the lawn with nice flowers, landscaping, new door, etc. that might be a more cost effective way to pretty up the place and give more curb appeal.
