Dreaming of moving home? How to make sure it happens in 2022

Did you set any new year’s resolutions this year? Has 2020/21 made you realise that it’s time to make some changes to your living situation? Whether you want to relocate to a new part of the country (maybe the South West if you’re not here already!) or find somewhere that is better suited to your needs, moving might well be on your list of things to do in the coming 12 months.

But if you are keen to move home in 2022, how can you make sure it happens and doesn’t remain a pipe dream? We’ve got some top tips to help you make your move this year.

Harvard Health has offered some great advice to help you stick to resolutions in general and we think many of them can be applied to goals like moving home. Among the tips is to dream big and be ambitious. If moving home is a big goal for you this year, think about what kind of home you’d like to live in and don’t be afraid of going out and looking for exactly what you want!

However, while you should certainly dream big, it’s important to break those big goals down into small, manageable steps. If you’re buying a new home, this process can take time (you can read more about the process itself in our blog about how long it typically takes) and it will involve a number of steps.

Finding the right removals company in the South West, or nationwide, will be one of those steps and we are ready to help you whenever you reach the stage of planning your move.

Once you have decided to move (or follow through on any of your other goals) it’s important to fully commit to the process. By doing so, you are much more likely to succeed in the coming 12 months. That said, it’s important to recognise when you need support in this process. Our team at Removals Unlimited are on hand to help in whatever way you require. We pack, move and store! This means we can provide extensive support with your home move.

If you have been waiting to move until the new year, there is some (potentially) good news about the property market itself. Rightmove has predicted that there could be more properties coming onto the market in the UK in the coming three to six months. There is often an increase in sellers in the spring months and this means that there could be less scarcity of properties available for those looking to buy this year.

The property website is also predicting that the pace at which the UK’s property market is moving, for both buyers and sellers, will slow down in 2022. If you felt as though it was a little too much stress before with the added pressure of the stamp duty holiday coming to an end, now could therefore be the perfect time to start house hunting with a little less urgency.
