Should I add a fire pit to my yard?

By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®

A fire pit extends your outdoor living season and creates a natural gathering spot for family and friends. Portable fire pits are affordable and require no installation. Built-in models add value but need proper ventilation and clearance from structures. Check local codes and HOA rules before installing. Use on a non-flammable surface and keep a fire extinguisher nearby.

Why It Matters

Outdoor living spaces are among the most desired features for homeowners. A fire pit is one of the most cost-effective ways to enhance your yard.
