Benefits of a Pre-Christmas Move
Moving before the festive season brings both functional and emotional advantages. Buying a finished property means you avoid construction-related delays, allowing a smooth transition into your new space.
Hosting Christmas in a newly finished house means you benefit from modern features, energy-efficient systems and a clean, uncluttered canvas to make your own.

Costs and Support

Discussing your options with an adviser and instructing a solicitor early in the process can prevent delays and ensure a smoother experience.
Plan for a Smooth Move
Planning ahead is crucial to moving before the holidays. Confirm your moving date as early as possible, 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.
