1) Color: can paint the exterior of your home and prune the plants, or just pruning. Whatever the decision, will draw attention from outside the new aesthetics of your home.
2) Porch or Patio: If you have a porch or patio, just rearranging the furniture can make a huge difference in the presentation of your home. Another alternative is to buy new cushions or covers for your furniture.
