Yes, very much true! Trim up your trees and brush. Mow the lawn and setup a nice sitting area in your garden. Best way to improve the curb appeal of your home.

In reply to Thomas.

I am in complete agreement with Thomas. Those shutters in photo 21 really are horrible. It’s not true that “they are almost always purely decorative these days” — many homeowners spring for real, operable shutters because to do anything less actually downgrades the quality of their home. Fake shutters add no “character” whatsoever.
Also, in photo 24, the advice is to replace the front door and windows. That’s fine if it’s a cheaply built home with a vinyl door in, say, Arizona, but DO NOT replace your original wood doors and windows if you have an historic house. Not all homes are the same and advice on home improvement shouldn’t be either.

In reply to Thomas. Hmmmm I dunno, they don't work for every house, but for many types of houses I think they can add a more "finished" look. All down to personal taste of course!

I have to say, the shutters in #19 look horrible. People, please do not install shutters like the ones seen in the listing titled, “19. Make or Buy Window Shutters.” Even fake shutters need to look functional for proper, sensible design. Note that the shutters would far exceed the height of the windows.
This is nothing against the article; just the stock photo selected.
These shutters (as they are currently installed) are the mark of a true amateur. They look jaw-droppingly terribly and, most important, they don’t make sense.
Note not just the height issue, but also how far apart they are installed from the window. So not only would these fake shutters not ‘fit’ vertically, if they were real, but they also wouldn’t even have a hope of ‘fitting’ horizontally if they were real — because they were installed two far from the edges of the windows!
Ugh.
Simply dreadful.
