If you're like most homeowners in the Atlanta area, you're probably thinking about renting your home while you wait for the real estate market to become more favorable for sellers again.

In this article, will offer you several tips that you can use to get your Atlanta home in rent ready condition.
Tip #1 – Curb Appeal Tune Up
Your Atlanta home may already have excellent curb appeal since you previously had it listed for sale but, if it's been some time since you've made curb appeal improvement's, you should take the time to analyze the Kirby pilfer your property and determine what needs to be improved or renovated.
For example, you should remove dead plants, cut back overgrown trees and reseed grass that since dried up during the drought.
Since you're going to be renting your property out, it's best to focus on planting drought tolerant plants because, they require less water than traditional plants and it'll be easy for your tenant to maintain the landscape since less water means that it's not going to grow fast like traditional landscaping
