With many homeowners choosing to downsize to release much-needed
equity, we have produced a new guide with our top five
tips for moving to a smaller property:
Mark Hayward, president-elect of the NAEA, said: "Like any home
purchase there are some basic things to keep in mind if you choose
to downsize your home. Remembering that you may have to sell, store
or give away some of the furniture you no longer need, and planning
that well in advance can really help.
"Downsizing is also an opportunity to boost the money you'll
save on energy bills by improving the energy efficiency of your
home, for example by ensuring it's properly insulated".
