Today we will examine 8 items for the Outdoors of your home, remember the exterior is the first impression, these are very low cost effective tips.
1. Spruce up all around the home. Keep lawn and shrubbery trimmed and free of bicycles and other clutter. Keep garden beds weeded and mulched.
2. Put a flowering pot on the front step and keep it watered and trimmed.
3. Fill any potholes in your driveway and tidy up your walkways including edging.
4. Clean any outdoor furniture if any is rusted remove the rust or remove the items.
5. Clear out the garage of everything except cars. If your garage has become a second attic, remove the items.
