10 Reasons for Property Owners to Plant Trees

1) Trees around your property can increase curb appeal and value by up to 15% or more.
Studies of comparable properties with and without trees place a markedly higher value on those with trees & shrubs.

2) Trees provide social & environmental benefits. Trees fight global warming. They remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The major contributor to the threat of global warming. Trees help clean the air. Trees produce the oxygen we breathe. Trees planted in our communities moderate temperatures and reduce the need for air conditioning and heating produced by burning fossil fuels, a major source of excess atmospheric carbon dioxide. Reduce water requirements for irrigation.

3) Save on air-conditioning costs by 15-35%
Properly placed shade trees conserve energy in the summer by reducing indoor air temperature and parking lot heat zones. Properly planted trees can cut your air-conditioning costs by 15-35%.

4) Save on heating costs by 10-20%
Properly placed conifer evergreen trees act as a wind barrier and conserve energy in the winter cutting your heating costs 10-20%.

5)Trees can buffer and reduce bothersome/distracting noise by up to 50% and can mask unpleasant noises & replace with pleasant sounds of nature.

6) Trees can provide visual screening of unpleasant and/or distracting views while enhancing pleasant, calming views. The creation of outdoor / lunch break recreational areas for your tenants help improve their employee productivity and morale. This could impact vacancy rates and help secure longer leases.

7) Reduce insurance rates & security risks.
Proper species selection and placement can reduce security risks; vandalism & theft (has insurance rate implications)

8) Improve traffic flows & safety.
Proper species selection & placement can benefit vehicular and pedestrian access flow and safety. (has insurance rate implications)

9) Reduce vacancies & ensure longer leases
A well balanced combination of landscape plants can enhance the overall aesthetics with special emphasis on curb appeal which could impact vacancies rate.
