Do backyard improvements increase home value?

With additions such as patios and terraces, fire pits and outdoor kitchens, and even swimming pools, you can increase the chances of selling your home for more and (in some cases) faster. Landscaping in general has a strong impact, and 17% of real estate agents say that a garden maintenance program recently closed a deal for them. And the costs recovered are usually 100%. A recent University of Michigan study showed that landscape updates increase property values by up to 11 percent.

This means that if you want to raise your home rates at your next assessment, the best thing you can do is go to the backyard. If you like to organize family barbecues, outdoor kitchens are a great addition to your home. With careful planning, it can be a beautiful, functional space that you and your family will enjoy for years to come. If you're thinking of adding an outdoor kitchen to your home, contact a local New Jersey contractor, such as MSC Enterprises, LLC, today for more information.

We can help you determine if this is the right choice for you and your family.
