Adding curb appeal on a budget can be easier than you think. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to make the front of your house look polished and inviting.

One of the first things you should always do is clean up. Clean those sidewalks, pull weeds, and consider power washing your sidewalks.

Fresh paint around the door can actually add a lot of pop to your property. You especially want your front door and doorframe to look nice. Revisit how your house numbers are displayed on the property. Sometimes repainting them the same color as the doorframe can make them pop.

Usually, most people don’t pay attention to lighting at the front of the house. Get some more modern light fixtures and make sure they really stand out.

Adding some patio furniture can make your home look very appealing. A couple of cleverly-placed chairs and a table with a flower on it can upgrade your patio while creating a warm, homey feeling.


Other small things you can do include upgrading the mailbox and planting trees, shrubs, or fresh flowers. Plants always make a house look beautiful. If you do plant a few things, be sure to use mulch, the forgiver of all sins. Mulch will make your flowerbeds look beautiful. Also, consider building a bench underneath your tree or installing flower boxes.

Finally, if there are any eyesores on the property, like a big, green electrical box, plant some shrubs around it to keep things looking nice.
