There are just a few weeks until Christmas and even less until the kids break up for their winter holidays, so it’s the perfect time to get creative and decorate your home with some Crimbo-themed crafts.

Energy is a hot topic. From price hikes to conserving energy, every day there seems to be a new thing to think about. And now, research has shown that being more energy efficient could even bump up the value of your home.

We have a service which allows you to receive accurate advice regarding the value of your home without the need for us to interrupt your plans in the run up to Christmas!

It's highly likely that you or someone in your family has had to work from home at some point in the last few years. Most bosses have realised that, without the chit-chat and distractions of the office environment, productivity is actually higher. But it isn't practical for you to work from the end of the kitchen table permanently.

We all do it. Every year we overfill our schedule in the run-up to Christmas. Children's school commitments, staff parties, gift shopping - there's just so much to do. If you are considering moving house, there is a strong chance that it is not a particularly urgent move, and you will push this to the AFTER Christmas category.

Nativity plays, shopping, present wrapping, and staff parties. It's all go in the run-up to Christmas. There is so much going on at this time of year. Preparing for viewings on your property, on top of everything else, could be enough to send you over the edge!

If you're trying to sell your home, you might wonder what to do around Christmas time. Should you take it off the market for a month or so? Or try to juggle the viewing appointments around your other commitments?

Having fun is important, no matter how old you are. But how can you enjoy yourself without breaking the bank?

Get it right, and insulation can add value to your home. Get it wrong, and it could be difficult to get a mortgage for your property. Read on to find out why.

Buying a home comes with a lot of dreams, needs, and wants, but there’s another consideration, too – budget. Whether you’re taking your first step on the property ladder or moving on to bigger and better things, how can you make every pound count?
