Plants have been shown to increase productivity and focus, improve air quality, and reduce stress, amongst many other benefits, so why not add them into your New York home? Plant some greens around your Brooklyn/Manhattan home during open houses to show buyers the positive atmosphere your expired listing has. Benefits of plants include:

Productivity

Plants increase productivity because they help people stay more emotionally, physically, and cognitively more engaged in their work. They have also been proven to increase creativity which aids problem solving skills.

Air Quality

Within a home, there are many chemicals through paint, vinyl, laminate, and the like. Over time they break down into the air and in return we ingest them into our respiratory system. Plants are able to absorb the toxins from the air and store them in the soil to use for food later. This eliminates the possibility of your body absorbing the toxins and can increase your overall health. Plus, who doesn’t want their air purified at home during a COVID-19?

Reduce Stress

To start, the color green has been proven to create a calming effect for people. The mind connects greenery to nature which lowers anxiety and increases relaxation. Because of this, performance increases and attitudes become more positive.

Simply put, plants will market your home in a way no other decor can. Stock up on a few for upcoming open houses. Even if you’re hosting a virtual open house, plants will still make a positive impact.

Note: While real plants have many benefits for humans, certain plants are poisonous to pets. Be sure to do research on the plants you intend to bring into your expired listing if you have furry friends living with you.
