Will outdoor lighting increase my home’s value or curb appeal?

Quick Answer

Yes. When a reputable outdoor lighting company like Lights Over Atlanta adds custom LED fixtures to highlight architecture, gardens and walkways, buyers see a cared-for, safer home—and they pay for it. Industry surveys show quality landscape lighting recoups most of its cost and reliably heightens curb appeal night and day.

Detailed Answer

First impressions happen after sunset, too. A tailored residential outdoor lighting design from Lights Over Atlanta frames your home in warm, balanced light that photographs beautifully and wows drive-by buyers. Real-estate pros rank landscape lighting among the top outdoor features that increase perceived value, often returning the majority of the project cost at resale.

Curb appeal rises because proper architectural landscape lighting guides the eye to stonework, rooflines and specimen trees while hiding less-attractive areas in soft shadow. Path, driveway and step lights also signal safety—a deciding factor for many buyers with children or aging parents.

Modern LED fixtures use up to 80 percent less electricity than old halogen systems, so operating costs stay low.

Value also comes from durability. We specify highly efficient, lifetime-warrantied fixtures and bury low-voltage cable to keep your yard pristine. Enroll in our annual outdoor lighting maintenance plan, and our team cleans lenses and adjusts aim, ensuring the property always looks its best.
