Indian summer
Thursday, September 15, 2016
September brings a “back to school” nip in the air but can also deliver an Indian summer with hot, lazy afternoons and as the leaves turn from golden yellow to russet now’s the perfect time to give your home a mini makeover, adding warmth and texture to every room. As the days get cooler, simple updates, like indulgent, heavier fabrics and subdued lighting can transform your home and keep you cosy all winter long. It’s also a great time to give your garden some love and have it looking its best before frosts set in.

Thursday, August 25, 2016
There is a range of ‘ideal houses’ that teenagers aspire to own such as mansions, houses abroad and beach side houses. I believe that a teenager’s idea of a dream house is very much manipulated by the media and what they see on TV. Teenagers use social media every day, whether it is using a computer or scrolling through their facebook feed, and what they see can change their opinions on how they believe they should live and what to aspire to.
First timers remain upbeat after Leave vote
Monday, August 22, 2016
Whilst some agents saw buyer demand drop following the Brexit vote, sales to first-time buyers remained strong, according to the National Association of Estate Agents’ June housing market report. Mark Hayward, of the NAEA, said: “It’s a relief to see that looking at the month overall, buyers were still keen to buy, sellers were still keen to sell and sales were still going through at the same level as we’d expect.” The new housing minister’s commitment to building a million new homes is encouraging for first time buyers as is the lowering of interest rates and availability of mortgages.
