What Would the First Brick in Your Plan Look Like?

Selling your home can feel like staring at a huge wall you’ve got to climb. But what if you just focused on the first brick?
Because let’s be honest, the whole house-selling process can seem overwhelming. You’ve got big questions like:
  • Where do I start?
  • Who do I trust?
  • How long will it take?
  • Can I even afford it?
Here’s the good news: You don’t need all the answers right now. You just need a starting point.


Start With What Matters Most to You

Maybe your first brick is practical: understanding what your home might be worth in today’s market.
Maybe it’s emotional: feeling ready to say goodbye to a place filled with memories.
Or maybe it’s logistical: getting a handle on timelines, mortgage options, or what the market is like where you’re hoping to go.
Whatever your first concern is, that’s where we start. Because when you build your plan around your own priorities, the rest starts to fall into place.

As we hit the third week of December, the Blackwater property market does slow down ready for the big day. It’s at this time of year, I like to work out the total value of every home in Blackwater, and how that value has changed since 2010 (as that was the bottom of the market after the Credit Crunch).

Would it surprise you that of the 10.94 million homes that have left UK estate agents books since January 2019, only 6.33 million (or 57.86%) sold and moved. The other 4.61 million came off the market unsold. This is the extent of the sellability issue.

A well-managed deposit can prevent end-of-tenancy stress. By protecting funds in an approved scheme, creating a detailed inventory, keeping open communication, and being transparent about any deductions, landlords can avoid most disputes and maintain positive tenant relationships.

If you walk down almost any Tadley road or street, you will see the quiet signs of life playing out behind the front doors. Families growing. Kids leaving home. Kitchens are being refitted for the second or third time. Yet somewhere in that rhythm, every homeowner starts to feel it again ... the gentle itch to move.
