Home Staging - Curb Appeal - Asheville NC - Going Green With Native Plants




Home Staging starts with Curb Appeal. If you are a Home Stager in a Green Community, consider using Native Plants in your Home Staging Plan.

In most cities, the local County Extension Services have pamphlets to help the home stager learn the advantages of native planting. In a community that is green, this tactic could be good for your home staging business.

Many buyers look for low maintenance yards to address their environmental concerns. Plants grow well and require little care when in their native environment. They require less water and possibly fewer pesticides.

Curb appeal is often addressed with color pops and many native plants show their beauty in showy flowers. Above is a mock orange, great flowers, draws butterflies and hummingbirds to the landscape.

With the growth of suburbs, habitat concerns exist. Many homeowners like to draw wildlife of all kinds. Native planting provide that habitat. Fruits and seeds provide food and cover. The hickory nut tree shown above is great for wildlife that rely on nuts in their diet and provides plenty of green leaf cover.

A Home Stager in a green community can "sell" their home staging plan using native plantings. A Home Seller can have the selling point added to the other selling features of the home.

The community is enhanced as more people use native plants. Preserve our natural heritage in your curb appeal home staging plan.

The Real Estate Home Staging School ™ encourages it's students to have a community focus in their businesses. Students work with a mentor to develop their ethics policy and mission statement. In both cases, we deal specifically with how our actions affect the community. We believe an ethical and community focused home stager has an edge.
