Boost your Curb Appeal (& Value!) to your Multifamily Property in 7 Ways

The appearance of your property can help attract tenants and prospective buyers. Curb appeal goes beyond the appearance of your property – it can help create demand and fill a vacant property quickly. Get the most out of your investment by enhancing your curb appeal and keep your tenants satisfied.

Power Wash. Instantly remove dirt, dust, mildew and weathering from the winter. Include power washing walkways, fences, pool decks, balconies and more for a dramatic transformation!

Fresh Paint. Paint adds a layer of protection and unifies the look of your property. Get rid of chipped paint, blistering paint or faded colors with a fresh paint job. We recommend choosing a color scheme that compliments other aspects of your property’s curb appeal.

Fix Up the Roof. Have a professional take a look at the physical condition of your roof. Replace any missing, curling or faded shingles. If the roof is outdated, consider replacing it completely. A new roof has an ROI of 109%. 

New Siding. Siding helps to protect your property from many weather elements and gives the property a first impression. When it looks worn, you can lose up to 10% of it’s value. We recommend choosing vinyl for a strong, durable and maintenance free option. Vinyl siding will property your building from winds, hail, pests and storms. 

Landscaping. Create a welcoming feel by tidying up your entrance. Fresh mulch, and colorful flowers boost the curb appeal of your property. Offering a community garden, playground or outdoor grilling space to enjoy in the summer months.

Lighting. Keep your property well lit by using energy efficient lighting. This adds a layer of protection, curb appeal (at night) and security to your property.

Exterior Maintenance Repairs. Even small issues such as hanging gutters, missing bricks, cracked asphalt, peeling paint, and cracked windows contribute to curb appeal. Neglecting minor repairs can be costly in the future. If you notice something that needs attention, fix it right away to create a positive impression.
