Grow Green: Increase property values with trees
Kitchen and bathroom remodeling often bubble to the top of the list as home improvement projects that have the greatest return on investment. But what if your kitchen already has granite counter tops? Or, after all the stock market volatility, the last thing you want is your bathroom sanctuary to become a construction zone.
No problem. Take a deep breath, break out into a yoga move and plant a tree.
Trees are great for the environment, but their greenness doesn’t stop there. The Council of Tree and Landscape Appraisers states that “a mature tree can often have an appraised value of $1,000 and $10,000.” That is a significant return on investment for planting a 15 gallon or 24-inch box tree costing $100-300. Arbor Day Foundation estimates that “trees around your home can increase its value by 15% or more.”
Besides the quantitative increases in home values, mature trees, in combination with established, lush landscaping becomes a key differentiator compared to shiny brand new homes in the area which may have the latest kitchen gadgets.
