It’s a popular saying that when it comes to real estate investing, location matters. And you can’t talk about the location without mentioning your property’s house number. It may seem like a minute detail, but making your rental house’s number both attractive and easily seen is an important part of positive investment property management.
People need to find your property quickly, including prospective tenants, postal service, emergency services personnel, and so on. But it’s equally vital to keep your Scott County property’s curb appeal high. With some imaginative house number ideas, you can easily accomplish both.
- Wooden House Plaque: Many things are best displayed with natural wood. Maybe this is the reason it is a popular option for a beautiful and functional house number plaque. Even if you prefer something classy or rustic, a wooden plaque can give your rental property the high-visibility numbers you need.
- House Number Post: If your rental is surrounded by trees or located at a distance from the road, perhaps a house number post would work best. When it comes to house numbers, visibility is key! Another creative option is a post with a hanging planter or combining your mailbox and house address post into one.
- Rock Decal: If the landscaping in your front yard includes one or more large stones – or you’re planning to add some – try using the rock’s face as a surface for your property’s house numbers. You can either paint the numbers freehand, use a stencil, or attach a weatherproof sign. It is one choice that is unique along with being functional.
- Raised Planter: Along with landscaping stones, it only takes a little imagination to turn a raised planter box into a house number sign. Consider attaching a planter box to some posts at the end of the driveway for greater visibility. House numbers that are easy to see are suitable for rental properties.
- Illuminated Numbers: For round-the-clock impact, try to add house numbers that light up. Using acrylic or other materials, it’s easy to place weather-resistant lighting behind each number to make it stand out.
- Tree or Yard Sign: Another quick and desirable choice is to hang your property’s house numbers on a large tree or a signpost in the yard. This is a great idea to make sure your property is easy to find even if you have foliage blocking the front of the house.
- Front Door Vinyl: If your rental property’s front door is easy to see, why don’t you put the house numbers exactly on the door itself? Using some custom vinyl numbers and a door in a darker color, you can use contrast to make your property be highlighted.
- Curb Stencil: Remember to try the tried-and-true house number staple: the curb stencil. Painting your house number on the curb out front can make identifying your property instantly and easy. It’s also a simple do-it-yourself project. With some stencils and spray paint, your property’s house numbers will be easy to maintain from year to year.
