Johnston, RI, October 14, 2008 --(PR.com)-- James Cotoia Residential Manager for GT Properties explains to sellers that landscaping isn't just about good looks -- it can increase the value of a home, make it sell more quickly, and even reduce the energy bill. Each home has a different contour to the land. To get the most value out of an investment in landscaping consult a professional.
The right landscape can increase the value of a home by 15 percent, allowing the owner to recoup 100 to 200 percent of their investment, according to the Association of Landscape Contractors of America. People that are in the process of selling their home, or know that they will be in the near future, should consider a good-looking landscape. It is a contributing factor to good curb appeal because it is one of the first things a prospective buyer will notice.
A 1998 study conducted by the University of Florida reveals that attractive landscaping makes a home sell faster. That's not all. The U.S. Department of Energy says landscaping is the best long-term investment for reducing heating and cooling costs. And according to the American Public Power Association, landscaping can reduce air conditioning costs by up to 50 percent.
American Forests has developed a way of measuring energy conservation benefits from tress, and reports that trees can reduce temperatures by as much as nine degrees Fahrenheit. A single urban tree can provide up to $273 a year in air conditioning. Remember that quality, not quantity, will enhance your landscape.
With a little careful planning and effort, it's relatively inexpensive and easy to reap the rewards of landscaping your home."
