Trees Are Associated With Many Economic Benefits

Trees play an important role in our world, and here in Mobile, they’re pretty critical to many things. In addition to being a key part of the ecosystem and making our properties much nicer to look at, they actually play a role in helping our budgets. They come with many economic benefits, which we’ll highlight below.

Increase Property Value

Many of us have been in Mobile through the ups and downs of the local housing market. When it comes time to sell a property, if you ever reach that point, you’re going to want to get the most for your place. Having mature trees can really enhance the overall appearance of your home, and studies have shown that a well-landscaped yard can add significant value to a property. This makes perfect sense since trees and landscaping are some of the first things that people notice about various properties.

Younger trees can also add value and have great potential, but mature trees typically make a stronger first impression. That’s why you should think about planting trees sooner rather than later if you have the space for them. As your trees grow, you’ll want them to continue to be healthy and look vibrant. At South Coast Outdoor Service, we can help you care for your trees. You can consider taking advantage of our comprehensive pruning and trimming services.

Reduce the Need for Air Conditioning

As you know, it can get pretty warm in Mobile well into the fall. During these months, you might not want to turn on your air conditioner so that you can save money on your monthly energy bills. Shade always helps you stay cool. When you have trees that provide shade for your home, it can make a huge difference. They can potentially lower the temperature of your home by a few degrees or more, especially in areas that have southern exposure and would otherwise receive more sun in the afternoon.

Reduce the Likelihood of Flooding

Another way in which trees can help financially is by working to prevent floods. When a strong rainstorm hits the Mobile area, all that rain has to go somewhere. If it gets into your home, you could be facing a huge expense. If your yard has trees, the roots can drink a lot of water, and if there are leaves on the ground, they could prevent some water from soaking into the ground. Further, tree canopies can prevent soil erosion. If there is extensive erosion, there could be a lot of water run-off that goes straight into your home or garage.

Plant a Tree

Trees do a great job of protecting us, and planting a tree could prove to be a wise investment. Contact South Coast Outdoor Service if you’d like any assistance.
