At Handsome Homes we understand that attractive exteriors are key for higher occupancy rates. This article will prepare you with everything you need to know about enhancing curb appeal for the spring time.
Planting colorful pots can liven up a garden or porch and will enhance curb appeal. This will add a colorful touch to your property and make the space more inviting to potential renters.
Tip: Pick plants with one or two shades that contrast with your home.
A fresh coat of paint is an easy way to make your home look more updated and protect it from the elements.
Tip: Choose a classic color that complements your home and landscaping.
Window boxes offer a fast and easy way to brighten up your home and add color to your exterior. They can be customized with seasonal greenery and flowers.
Tip: In the spring, plant flowers like pansies or petunias to enjoy bold, colorful blooms that thrive in the warmer weather.
An excellent way to approve curb appeal is pressure washing and it can be done on many surfaces like concrete, wood decks, and vinyl to give them a fresh look ready for warm weather.

Beautifully painted front doors
Painting your front door enhances curb appeal and immediately draws potential renters to your property. It will set the tone for the rest of the home.
Tip: For the spring time pick a pastel color to welcome in the spring.
One way to jazz up curb appeal is to add outdoor lighting. One way to include this is by utilizing pathway lights, accent lights, and motion sensor lights.
Tip: A warm light looks more appealing than LED lights.
Another useful way to enhance curb appeal is through the use of seasonal colors. Adding color to outdoor furniture, planters, and wreaths can give the property an extra boost.
Tip: For springtime pastel colors make a great impression and accent homes well.
As the weather warms it is important to change planter beds to reflect it. This ensures that your yard will look vibrant and the plants will thrive.
Tip: Hydrangeas, Azaleas, and lilies do well in the spring time in Charleston and add great curb appeal.
Spring is a great time to clean out and refresh all aspects of your home. The front of your property is no exception, it is the first thing potential tenants see and it is important to make it look its absolute best.
