2. Replace your house numbers

Notes:

• While house numbers are a small facet of your home’s exterior, having them in good quality will make all the difference!
• Even with renovations having been made to your home’s exterior, such as new siding or a new paint job, the numbers were probably never touched. If not, then they can reveal the age of your home in a negative way.
• Although having GPS on your phone now minimizes the use of house numbers, they’re still a key part of your home’s curb appeal. Find them in a color that matches the accent pieces of your home, such as your door, window frames, porch color, etc.

3. Switch out aging hardware

Notes:

• Once the house numbers are dealt with, it’s time to switch out other features of your home’s exterior that are withering away.
• Things such as your door handle, porch light fixture(s), mailbox, or aging flower plants can take away from an otherwise modern-looking home.
• Start by walking across the front of your home and writing down a list of every piece of hardware that looks worn out. Once you’re finished, go inside and perform some research on what each piece will cost, then set up a budget.
• You can decide whether to purchase all of these items at once or chip away at them one by one over a set amount of time. Either way, people will notice a difference, but won’t be able to pinpoint what the difference is. It’s your little secret!

4. Up your landscaping game

Notes:

• Perhaps you’re not the type to invest a great amount of money and time into your lawn, but you should be. Nothing makes a better companion for your home than a nice patch of luscious green grass around it.
• While many people think this is a money-gouging task, it doesn’t have to be. Investing in things like a string trimmer or a new lawnmower can pay off in a big way.
• Are you tired of staring at the same bald patches in your yard? Sick of your grass looking dried-out? You can invest in a hefty bag of grass seeds that will fix all your problems. From there, it’s just a matter of setting up the sprinkler to nurture them.
• Use your string trimmer to make the lawn more precise. Trim off any overlaps between your yard and driveway/sidewalk. Trim up the bushes around your yard. People will notice the difference!

5. Repaint your home’s exterior

Notes:

• Take a hard look at the outside of your home. Is the color fading away? Has it been more than a decade since your home has been painted? If so, it’s time for a fresh coat.
• But why not take advantage of that? You could perform some research to see what exterior colors are trending in 2020.
• Maybe you want to paint the entire thing one bold color. Perhaps you want to paint the siding a neutral color and let the colors of your front door, window trim, and porch cover do the talking. Whatever route you choose, the outcome will be rewarding!

6. Invest in outdoor lighting

Notes:

• If you’re going to invest all this time and energy into revamping your home’s curb appeal, you want to make sure people can see it during the day and night.
• You can place small lighting fixtures all along the walkway to your front door. You can place them around your driveway. Perhaps you want to place a few around the border of your home to fend off burglars.
• Maybe invest in new lanterns for your front porch. Consider some landscape lighting to show off your shrubbery at all hours of the night.
• If you’re unsure of which route to take with outdoor lighting, use some of your neighbor’s lighting fixtures as your guide!
