The multi-state study found minimal landscapes (simple design with small plants) detracted from the value.  Research data showed home price premiums increased 6 to 7 percent for home landscapes upgraded from good to excellent and 4 to 5 percent for an upgrade from average to good. Combined, a landscape upgrade from average to excellent increases home value by 10 to 12 percent.\"  Turf Magazine, 2016  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"art selectionShareable\"\u003e \u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/thYzRyfs6jk?si=nhJqNWMQGc4fcpfF\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"art selectionShareable\"\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/btuGgeFQm8Q?si=cCACPvYawlOeU-PP\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"art selectionShareable\"\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aDO3ANXbqYc?si=iVvam8n2GN1DDBjv\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"art selectionShareable\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"art selectionShareable\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"art selectionShareable\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"art selectionShareable\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EarthWorks","offers":[{"title":"2.5 Gallons","offer_id":51198497816864,"sku":"BioVantage","price":159.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.0 Gallons","offer_id":51198497849632,"sku":"BioVantage - 2","price":299.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0253\/7072\/2385\/files\/BioVantage.jpg?v=1770215503","url":"https:\/\/ohhmygoodness.com\/products\/earthworks-bio-vantage-liquid-organic-fertilizer-2-5-gal","provider":"www.ohhmygoodness.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
