Lanscapers share their ideas, tips, and tricks on creating and designing
beautiful landscapes.
•Richard Fortin - Landscaping adds Value to your home
"A variety of studies reveal that landscaping can increase the value of residential and commercial
property from five to as much as 20%. Landscaping, as a home improvement project, has a recovery
value of 100-200% if it is well done and harmonizes with the nearby surrounding. This compares to
a kitchen overhead of 75-125% or a bathroom redesign of 80-120%." Money Magazine.
"A Survey revealed that 95 % of the appraisers responding to the survey believed that landscaping
adds to the dollar value of residential real estate, while 99 % of them said it enhanced the sales
appeal of residential real estate." Society of Real Estate Appraisers.

•Richard Fortin - There are a few items that you should have
ready prior to hiring a landscape designer to make the job go smoother. For example, it is
important to use copies of your survey (never use the original) to note all of the objects on
your property. Alternatively, you can use a blank piece of paper to sketch your house and property
lines but this may be more time consuming.
