Landscaping Tips for the LBI Real Estate Market

Long Beach Island Real Estate

The Long Beach Island real estate market offers some excellent investment opportunities, and buyers always want to know how to improve their investment in LBI. One frequently neglected yet significant part of the LBI real estate market is landscape design. Landscaping seems to be more and more important as buyers look to expand their outdoor spaces. Long Beach Island real estate landscaping can add a great deal of value to your home, and if you are planning on selling, it may significantly decrease the amount of time a home spends on the market. Landscape layout and usage differ considerably from other primary real estate markets. For example:

  • Sellers and homeowners should keep in mind the maintenance of the landscaping choices.
  • It is necessary to understand what does and what does not constitute lot coverage as this can impact future development. 
  • When selecting a landscape architect, check their credentials before contracting them to do the work.

Landscaping and the Long Beach Island NJ Real Estate Market

The LBI New Jersey, real estate market, is principally a second home market. Therefore, many buyers and homeowners keep an eye toward low maintenance. The installation of plants or grass, which may require additional upkeep can be a hindrance when selling a home in the LBI real estate market. Low maintenance plantings that live well in a shore environment are a big plus. A paver driveway or patio will undoubtedly count towards the amount of coverage designated for a lot. This can have an impact down the road if you plan on making additions or build a new home or adding a feature like a pool. Lastly, it is vital to make sure the landscaper is licensed and is up-to-date on the local codes. Codes change all the time, and having confidence in your contractor can go a long way to the success of a project. Local contractors tend to be best as they are familiar with local zoning regulations and can advise you on the topics I have mentioned above.
