Luxury Apartment Landscaping Benefits – More Than Just Looks

August 31, 2019


While an expertly manicured apartment complex certainly does look nice, did you know that professional landscaping provides more than just a pretty sight? Professional landscaping services can help residents feel comfortable paying higher rents as well as help the environment and help create cleaner air.

More Valuable Units

Curb appeal goes a long way when it comes to renters choosing an apartment complex to reside in. If the grounds are dilapidated and neglected, odds are it won’t look very attractive to prospective renters. They may assume that the lack of care for the grounds extends to a lack of care for residents.

Grounds that have been tended to by professional landscapers, on the other hand, will not only increase the curb appeal of the apartments, but it will also show potential renters that the management cares about pleasing their residents. Vacancies will get filled much more quickly than they would in a complex that does not have immediate curb appeal. This is especially important for luxury apartments in Murfreesboro and Nashville.

Environmental Impact

There are many environmental benefits to having your complex’s grounds cared for by professionals.

First of all, strategically placed tall bushes and trees can provide natural shade, keeping units cool in the summer. This means residents’ air conditioning system will not have to work as hard, leading to lower energy bills, a benefit many renters will appreciate.

On top of potential energy savings, proper landscaping will limit the amount of stormwater runoff, helping control high waters in flood-prone areas such as parking lots. Proper storm water runoff designs are best left to the professionals, so contact your local lawn care experts if high water levels affect your complex during storms.

Soil preservation is another benefit of professional landscaping. The earth will hold water more effectively and not lose as much to evaporation, meaning that you will need to use as much water to care for the complex grounds.

Health Benefits

Plants soak up carbon dioxide and release oxygen during photosynthesis, meaning they practically act as air filters for the earth. More plants means more of that fresh air that we all love getting from being outdoors. Some plants are better suited for certain regions, so be sure to consult with a landscaping expert to learn which plants are best for Middle Tennessee.

Nice landscaping also promotes a healthier lifestyle by encouraging more outdoor activities. Beautiful landscaping also provides a relaxing place for residents to unwind and shake off the stress of a long day of work.
