As a homeowner in Baltimore, Maryland (or anywhere for that matter), curb appeal make a difference not only in aesthetic appeal, but also home value. Despite being told at a young age to “never judge a book by its cover,” that is exactly what we do as a society, especially when it comes to home buying. Homebuyers make up their mind as to whether or not they will buy a home 30 Seconds after they first see it. Furthermore, 10% of potential homebuyers cannot see the potential of a home.

As you can clearly see, curb appeal makes a big difference when selling a home. Improved curb appeal may even increase your home’s resale value by as much as 15-20%. Wow! But you aren’t ready to sell, are you? At least not any time in the next few years. You are more concerned about adding your own personal flair to your home. Of course, you want that flair to be something appealing to potential homebuyers down the road.
