Refresh Your Parking Lot to Improve First Impressions
Anyone visiting your property is going to take notice of your parking lot – be it a tenant, customer or potential buyer. Giving your lot a fresh, new look might be just what you need.
We have a full list of things you can do to improve your curb appeal, but these are our top recommendations:
- Add a little paint. Re-painting your pavement and parking stripes is a cost-effective way to give your parking lot a fresh look. At the same time, make sure all of your parking lot signs are clean, in good shape and visible.
- Sweep it clean. It’s amazing how great a parking lot can look after a good cleaning. Consider hiring a company for a street sweeping service to remove all debris and give buyers a good look at the full property potential.
Make Your Property Turnkey with Simple Pavement Repairs
In an ideal world, commercial property buyers want a turnkey property with little required investment after the sale. Choosing to make asphalt repairs to your parking lot can not only make your property turnkey, your investment in repairs can actual raise the value of your property.
Consider these simple asphalt parking lot repairs:
- Crackfilling and sealcoating. If your asphalt lot is more than 5 years old, it likely needs a fresh sealcoat application and depending on past traffic, it may require some crackfilling. These minor repairs can help boost the value of your property and improve your curb appeal.
- Pothole repairs. The thought of repairing potholes may turn away some buyers, so hiring a asphalt paving contractor to fill your potholes is a good investment. If the process is completed by an experienced, professional paving team, it should be quick and easy for you.
