Take Advantage of Low Interest Rates for Your Backyard Remodel

As economic uncertainty grips the country due to the current COVID-19 crisis, more and more homeowners are considering refinancing to take advantage of record low interest rates. If your backyard looks like it could use an update, now may be the perfect time for a makeover. A new patio or landscaping is a great way to transform an outdated home, without having to worry about making structural changes to your home’s interior. 

A landscape remodel can help turn even the shabbiest cement patio into your own personal oasis where you can sit back and relax by your own water feature or live out your master chef dreams with an outdoor pizza oven. Improving your outdoor living space can also potentially increase the value of your home which means that investing in it now can result in a significant payout down the road. 

Financing Your Backyard Remodel

As the warmer weather quickly approaches, we all want to spend more time outdoors. However, until it is safe to do so for the sake of the global community, the recommendation is to limit your activity to the space provided at your home. Since you know you’ll be spending a lot more of your time around the house this summer, make sure it is ready to be enjoyed to its full potential. Here are a few reasons why now is the perfect time to turn your dream backyard into reality: 
  • Consider Return on Investment:  If you are interested in increasing the value of your home, outdoor improvement projects have a higher likelihood of making a bigger impact. Any outdoor upgrades you make now can do a lot to improve the value of your home, while others indoors may not provide the same lucrative return. 
  • Get More Use from Your Space:  Capitalize on your outdoor space by enhancing its existing features to make it more enjoyable for you and your family. This could be anything from enhanced landscape plantings to installing a fire pit or private hot tub area and much more.
  • Enjoy Quality Family Time:  In the midst of all the uncertainty, one of the most valuable messages is the importance of spending time with the people you care about. Planning for a new hardscaping or landscaping project is a great way to work together with your family in a safe and responsible manner towards something that you can all ultimately enjoy. 
  • Create a Showplace If your yard is a sad, uninviting space with weeds and dirt, keep in mind that it’s not a hopeless piece of real estate but a blank canvas! All it takes is a little bit of imagination, creativity and know-how to transform it into something wonderful. The experts at PINE BROOK can quickly transform it  into the most popular spot in your home bringing vibrancy, color and even tasteful drama to your leisure time.

Ideally, one of the best ways to finance your backyard remodel is to save and follow a strict budget so you don’t have to rely on credit or take out a loan. However, refinancing your mortgage at today’s lower interest rates can save you a significant amount of money long-term. In addition to increasing equity which could result in a big payoff if or when you decide to sell your home, it’s going to be the place that you can’t wait to show off to your family friends and neighbors.

If you are considering a backyard remodel, PINE BROOK LANDSCAPING offers both landscape and hardscape design and installation services that can improve the appearance and value of your property. We take pride in our craftsmanship and attention to detail, using only the highest-quality materials to create a unique design that is tailor-made just for you!
