Managing Overgrown Gardens in Vacant Properties

Writer's picture: David LakeDavid Lake





An overgrown garden can quickly turn a charming akiya into an eyesore. Maintaining outdoor spaces is not only about aesthetics but also about preserving the property's value and preventing potential hazards.


Why Garden Maintenance Matters


  1. Curb Appeal: A tidy garden enhances the property’s appearance, making it more attractive to buyers or renters.

  2. Pest Prevention: Overgrown vegetation can harbor pests like snakes, rodents, and insects that may migrate indoors.

  3. Avoiding Damage: Roots from neglected plants can damage foundations, walls, and plumbing systems.


Maintenance Tips


  • Regular Pruning: Trim trees, shrubs, and hedges to keep them manageable.

  • Weed Control: Remove weeds to prevent overgrowth and encourage healthy soil.

  • Seasonal Planting: Opt for low-maintenance plants suited to the climate.
