What Your Houseplants Say About You (and Your Home!)
🌿 Snake Plant = Low Maintenance, High Style
You’re practical but love a clean, elevated look. A snake plant thrives even when neglected, which is great for busy professionals or first-time buyers adjusting to homeownership.
Real Estate Tip: Look for a home with great natural light and modern lines—your aesthetic loves structure and simplicity. Bonus points if the windows face east or west.
🌵 Succulents = You Love Small but Mighty Spaces
Succulent lovers often appreciate details: a bright windowsill, a compact patio, or a quirky sunroom. You don’t need a massive space—you want one that feels curated and intentional.
Real Estate Tip: Condos, townhomes, or cozy single-family homes with low-maintenance landscaping might be your vibe. Let’s find you a space that matches your energy.
🌸 Fiddle Leaf Fig = You’re Here for the Drama
You have taste and you’re not afraid to show it. The fiddle leaf is bold, trendy, and sometimes a little high-maintenance—but totally worth it.
Real Estate Tip: Think about a statement home—something with unique architecture, high ceilings, or bold finishes that reflect your personality. Bonus: natural light is non-negotiable.
🌱 Pothos = You're Grounded, Flexible, and Growing
A pothos can grow just about anywhere. You adapt, find creative ways to style your space, and appreciate the journey just as much as the destination.
Real Estate Tip: You might be a great candidate for a “stepping stone” home—your first or second home that you can grow into or eventually rent out. Let's talk strategy.
🪴 The Collector = You Need Plant Shelfies and Storage
You’ve got the Calatheas, the Alocasias, the ZZs, the Hoyas. Your collection isn’t just decor—it’s a part of your life.
Real Estate Tip: We’re looking for space. Think bay windows, bonus rooms, greenhouse potential, or even an extra bedroom you’ll turn into a jungle.
🌻 The Aspiring Gardener = Outdoor Space, Please!
You dream of garden beds, compost bins, and maybe even chickens one day. You see your home as a place to grow—literally.
Real Estate Tip: Let’s find you a home with a yard, south-facing sun, and maybe no pesky HOA rules about what you can plant.
Why Plants Matter in Real Estate 🌼
Plants are more than just greenery—they’re a reflection of how you live, care, and express yourself. In real estate, that matters.
Whether you’re staging a home with a pop of green, or imagining where your current collection will thrive, your plants can tell us a lot about what kind of space you’re looking for (or how to attract the right buyer).
Thinking about a move this spring or summer?
I’d love to help you find a home that makes you—and your plants—feel completely at peace.
