Cinch Your Home Sale with Great Outdoor Living Space

A growing trend with home buyers is the desire for outdoor living space. Over 51% of buyers say this is really important in their decision to buy. Creating a great outdoor living area will give a great return on your investment when preparing your home for sale.

Younger buyers in particular are looking for patios and outdoor areas. Outdoor living space increases the functional square footage of a home so is even more important in small homes.  Sliding doors or French doors leading to and providing a view of your outdoor space helps bring the outdoors in, and creates a sense of a larger space.

  1. This is SO accurate! Now more than ever before, having outdoor living space is high on the list of “must haves” for home buyers!

  2. Love the statement of the emotional connection evoked with home buyers when seeing outdoor spaces. This is not a trend that will fade away as more and more realize the limitness benefits of outdoor living. Great post!

    1. Thank you! I think have great outdoor living space is so important, especially right not in helping people stay safe, sane and healthy.

  3. Curb appeal, front and back, really do make a big difference. Buyers want options for indoor outdoor living.

    1. Thanks Denise, that extra added living space can make a big difference in the final sale price.

  4. It seems more than ever, an outdoor space is vital! I’m finding that although it doesn’t need to be a large space, it does need to be functional.
