Don’t Move Home Before You Read This


Many of us have considered putting our houses on the market. If absence makes the heart grow fonder, then familiarity breeds boredom. The same can be said for your house – spending so much time in one area can lead to a very critical viewpoint on very many imperfections within a building, and we can become obsessed enough with what we deem as flaws, that we can often hastily put a house on the market without thought for the complications of doing so.

There are multiple reasons why putting a house on the market can be a nightmare – so before you do so, check out our reasons to hold onto what you’ve got.

Solicitors are expensive, and an ordeal. Who wants to deal with matters such as land property searches, deed searches, and land registry fees all over again? No-one. With the time a solicitor takes to complete a transaction firmly between 4 and 12 weeks, moving can feel like an absolute ordeal, even when things go right. When things go wrong, it can be (even more) costly, and stressful all around.

Estate Agents Fees - Generally considered no joke, estate agents fees are yet another cost associated with moving, and can run into the thousands upon thousands. There’s no preparing for them – once they hit, it’s always dismaying and can be the difference between being able to do what you want with your new home, and not.

Architects in Chester and Cheshire can often be less expensive than the above. The services of a good Architectural Designer in Chester can bring your existing home to life, and make it exactly what you want and need, without fees, stresses, and taxes. You might not believe it, but any house, given enough care and attention can be made a home, all that’s needed is an expert that can help with matters- working on your terms and providing you with a series of options to get the very most out of where you live.
