When You Picture Moving, What Feelings Come Up?

Moving triggers all kinds of emotions...let's unpack these, together!

Moving home isn’t just about listings and legalities. It’s about how you feel about letting go of one chapter and stepping into the next.

And if those feelings are keeping you from making a move, then it’s probably time to have a chat with someone…

Moving Triggers All Kinds of Emotions

Maybe when you imagine selling, you feel:
A bit anxious about the work involved
Nostalgic or uncertain about leaving your home
Fearful of making the wrong decision
Completely overwhelmed by the process
All totally valid.

So, What Do You Do with Those Feelings?

You chat about them. With someone who understands what it actually means to move house, not just from a transaction perspective, but from a human one.
That’s where I come in.
As a self-employed avocado property partner, I work closely with people in Newbury & the surrounding villages, who are just starting to think about moving. My role isn’t just to book valuations, it's to support you in understanding your options, building a plan, and knowing what comes next.

What We Could Talk About:

  • What’s really stopping you
  • What needs to happen first
  • Who you might need to speak to (financial advisers, surveyors, solicitors)
  • What’s happening in the market right now
  • And what your ideal outcome looks like

Sometimes the next step isn’t listing your home. It’s talking. So, if you’re feeling stuck, I’d love to help you unpack things.

Let’s make space for the next chapter, together.

Many people like you get stuck in that “almost ready” stage. You want to move, you’ve registered with agents, you might even have seen some dream homes online… but your current property still isn’t on the market.

With rising demand for affordable housing, many landlords consider turning a property into a house in multiple occupation (HMO). The higher rental yields can be tempting, but HMOs come with stricter rules and heavier responsibilities. Handled well, they can be profitable. Handled badly, they can be stressful and costly.

From 1st May 2026, major reforms arrive under the new Renters’ Rights Act and landlords across England need to be ready. Here’s what’s changing, why it matters and how we can help you stay ahead of the curve.

At Avocado Property, we combine local expertise with transparency. This guide brings together our November 2025 market update and local intelligence report to give you clear, targeted insights. Whether you’re upsizing, selling, letting, or renting, here’s what to expect and how to prepare.
