Ambling's properties competed in a "Curb Appeal Contest" this quarter. This contest helped to remind us how important curb appeal is to our communities. Our curb appeal is what sets us apart from the competition and how we present ourselves to residents, prospects, vendors, team members, our competition, investors, owners, management and everyone that enters our communities. It is extremely important that we are always paying attention to the details:
- Inspect the grounds for trash and debris several times per day. Make sure you are looking behind the buildings and all team members are contributing.
- Make sure flowers are at the entrance. Around your leasing office. Mulch or pine straw are fresh, rolled and tucked. No weeds! Hold those landscapers accountable!
- No broken blinds and shutters.
- Satellite dishes per the guidelines only.
- Breezeways clean.
- Mailbox Stations maintained.
- All exterior lighting working.
- Entrance signs clean and in good repair.
- Keep trees and shrubs maintained at all times.
- Keep your pool sparkling blue year round with pool furniture clean and maintained.
- Flags and balloons out as required with no wilted balloons.
- Quarterly Marketing Campaigns displayed.
Properties were judged on their curb appeal from the pictures we received from each property. They were all great photos, and while we still see a lot of need for improvement, there was definitely a sense of pride in the pictures and the desire to learn and show improvement. Each community below participated in this contest.
