Fall is upon us. When selling your home during the fall season, it is very important to maintain good curb appeal, so clean up all that fall yard debris. Keep the driveway, sidewalks, and walkways free from leaves and branches. In the yard, rake up all the leaves and remove all the spent plants. Trim back perennials that are past their prime. For color add some fall blooming annuals or other colorful plants such as mums and kale. Add a pumpkin or squash for a little filler.
