Financial Help for Buyers

Plan for a Smooth Move
Planning ahead is crucial to moving before the holidays. Secure your completion date early, and book removals promptly, as December is a peak time for movers.
Inform all relevant utility and service companies of your new address in good time. Clearly labelled boxes will make the first few days easier, so you can enjoy the festive period rather than sorting through clutter.
