People Look At Night… So Light The Way

Most buyers view properties online and then drive by those that seem promising to take a look before they call their agent to tour the house. And because a lot of people work during the day, they drive by prospective prop-erties at night. Many buyers tell us how difficult it is to see house numbers and yards because of the lack of lighting.
Install outdoor lighting and put interior lights on timers so the property looks homey and inviting. Remember: People are busy — they may not be able to drive by until midnight.
Landscape lighting (available at your Bunnings) creates an ambiance that alters the look and feel of the house. Place the lights to resemble a runway design that borders the sides of your driveway, add spots that highlight specimen trees or shrubs, or stagger two or more lamp styles for a more creative approach. Turn to the colour pages to see the difference landscape lighting can make.
