How Trees Add Value to Commercial Properties

Why Professional Tree Care Is a Wise Investment

Beyond just aesthetic appeal, trees provide real economic value to commercial properties in many ways. As a business owner, understanding and highlighting these benefits can help justify investments into professional tree care and maintenance.


Increased Property Values


Numerous studies have quantified the direct boost trees deliver to both residential and commercial property values. Quality trees increase curb appeal and demonstrate that a property is well-cared for. For commercial office buildings, properties with ample greenery also command higher rents. Tenants are drawn to beautiful environments.


Energy Savings


Through summer shade and wind protection in winter, trees reduce air conditioning and heating costs substantially. Research shows savings of up to 56% on annual energy bills for well landscaped commercial buildings. The ROI from planting strategically can be quite high.


Stormwater Management


Trees and soil soak up tremendous amounts of water that would otherwise contribute to runoff and flooding. This ecosystem service also improves water quality by filtering out pollutants. Some municipalities even award credits for using trees and vegetation to handle stormwater on commercial sites.


Customer Appeal


Consumers consistently report preferring to shop and dine at well-landscaped businesses. Visitors are also more likely to linger longer, boosting sales potential. Trees communicate quality and prosperity.


Taken together, the financial impact of trees for commercial properties is multifaceted and significant. Investing in professional tree care ensures these assets remain maximized over the long term.
