Braai areas, patios, lush gardens, how to sell your house quicker in the post-Covid era
Demand for houses with bigger outdoor spaces with well-kempt gardens and braai areas has risen with the easing of the pandemic.Artificial grass is off-putting, though, and buyers still prefer natural grass.
"We are known for our sunshine and braais, and this is often a key consideration when buyers and tenants look for properties… A nice garden and outdoor or under-roof braai facilities is a strong selling point and add value and desirability," Seeff said. The company said that the spike in demand for homes with such features could also be attributed to the growth in estates with open spaces.
"Buyers do not want to have the hassle of having to clean up the yard and garden when they move in. Therefore, when evaluating two similar homes, the one with a nice garden will inevitably win the day," said Seeff.
