Check out these seven super-easy tips for staging your outdoor living space this summer:

  1. Clean the yard
  2. Mow the grass and do regular lawn maintenance
  3. Power-wash walkways

Scroll down for a closer look at each.

Quick Home Value

Tip #1 for Staging Your Outdoor Living Space This Summer: Clean the Yard

Put away toys, lawn equipment, and garden tools. Sweep walkways and patios. These small efforts make a big difference in showing buyers how much they can enjoy the entire property if they make an offer.

Tip #2 for Staging Your Outdoor Living Space This Summer: Mow the Grass and Do Regular Lawn Maintenance

This one’s a no-brainer. A well-groomed yard is key to any good staging job, inside or out. So be sure to mow the grass regularly, trim the hedges, and pull any weeds that might have sprung up. If you have a pool, now is also the time to make sure it’s clean and sparkling.

Tip #3 for Staging Your Outdoor Living Space This Summer: Power-Wash Your Sidewalks and Walkways, and Clean Your Deck or Patio

A power washer is a great way to quickly clean up concrete, wood, or brick surfaces. Just be sure to use the right tip and settings for the surface you’re cleaning. You don’t want to damage anything in the process! And never, ever power-wash your home’s exterior; you could cause significant damage.

Tip #4 for Staging Your Outdoor Living Space This Summer: Set the Stage for Entertainment

One of the best ways to show off your outdoor living space is to set it up for entertaining. This could mean anything from setting out a couple of outdoor rocking chairs to setting up a full-blown patio set complete with a grill and dining table. No matter what you do, make sure prospective buyers can see how they might use the space for entertaining guests.

Tip #5 for Staging Your Outdoor Living Space This Summer: Show Off Your Storage

If your outdoor living space includes a storage shed, now is the time to clean it out and make it presentable. After all, you want prospective buyers to see that there’s plenty of room for storing lawn equipment, pool toys, and other outdoor gear.

Tip #6 for Staging Your Outdoor Living Space This Summer: Bring in Potted Plants

Potted plants are a great way to add color and life to any outdoor living space. If your space is looking a little drab, try adding a few potted flowers or plants. Just be sure to water them regularly!

Tip #7 for Staging Your Outdoor Living Space This Summer: Invest in New Patio Furniture

If your patio furniture is looking a little worse for wear, it might be time to invest in some new pieces. This doesn’t mean you have to go out and buy the most expensive set on the market. But a few new chairs or a new patio umbrella can go a long way in making your outdoor living space look its best.
