What do You Want to Avoid Regretting Later in Your Move?

What would you hate to regret later when moving, and how can you stop that from happening now?

Everyone says hindsight is 20/20. But when it comes to selling your home, you don’t have to wait until after you’ve moved to see clearly.

So, let’s flip the question:

What would you hate to regret later when moving, and how can you stop that from happening now?
Maybe it’s a case of… "I wish I’d known more about the property market."

It’s moving fast. Or slow. Or maybe both, depending on where you are. Having someone walk you through what’s actually happening in your postcode, down to your exact street, makes a difference.

Or… "I didn’t realise what I needed to do first!"
Some sellers find out too late that things like sorting paperwork, prepping the house, or finding a conveyancer should have happened weeks before they went to market.

Perhaps… "I thought I’d have more control."
Once the chain kicks off, everything moves, and often you have no say in the pace. If you don’t agree on the deadlines early on, it can feel like you’re being pulled pillar to post.

Are You Googling Things Like: “Should I reduce my asking price?” “Why isn’t my house selling?” “How to sell my home faster without dropping the price?” If so, you’ll be one of many. But before you agree to a reduction, let’s look at what else might be holding things back.

Across Newbury and the surrounding villages, the market has kicked off the year in a calm and measured way. Homes are still selling, buyers are engaged and completions are ticking along but things aren’t moving at top speed. In 2026, timing, pricing and a strong grip on local competition are what make the difference.

If you’re thinking about selling your home but don’t feel ready to book a valuation just yet, you’re not doing it wrong; you’re doing it honestly.

The question you should be asking is: “Why do I want to move?”
