There’s no way of getting around it: the front of your home is the first thing You see when you get home, so make it beautiful. Good home and yard maintenance is a must, but focus on a few hot spots too: a freshly painted front door, gleaming hardware, and a few beautiful potted plants make a great first impression. Take a hard look at any fencing you have in the front yard. That picket fence may have been a necessity when your kids were young, but it may be cramping your home’s style now. And for God's sake, mow your lawn. You don't have to be as obsessed as my husband is, but your neighbors will appreciate the effort.
