Time to get organised for the New Year!

Time to get organised for the New Year!

We all like to promise ourselves that with each year that goes past that the next one will be the best one. So, why not make the right steps towards this and start your 2022 off on the right foot?

We can show you how tackling your home organisation could be the new year refresh that you need, so take a look through our top tips for sorting out your home and getting it underway in the best way possible…

 

Find a new way to store your storage

 

Tupperware and other forms of storage containers are some of the most popular items in the kitchen. Not only do they make sure that we can keep leftovers fresh, but also that we can put food away in the fridge neatly. The trouble with storage containers is that they themselves can cause a bit of a mess problem. There are a number of inventive ways online that you can try and organise your food storage and make sure that your kitchen looks neat and tidy.

 

Repurpose your magazine file

 

Do you have a magazine file that now seems to be distinctly lacking in magazines? If this is true for you then you might want to find out a way to repurpose it. One great idea that we have found is to use these files to store hair straighteners, curlers and hair dryers. All of which slot in neatly and keep these electric items neat and tidy.

 

Think about garage and shed storage

 

For many of us, the garage and sheds at our properties can become messy and unkempt over time. After all, they are mainly just for storage, so it can seem as if it doesn’t matter whether or not they get messy. But it does! Not only does this make things tricky to find when you do need it, but it also means that you are losing valuable space too. If you are concerned about the space that you have in your garage then you can always consider off-floor storage, such as high shelves and even using the ceiling for storage too.

 

Create a drop spot

 

Do you hate the fact that everyone just throws their stuff on the floor when they get through the door? Does it seem that no matter what you say it still happens? If this is true for your house, then perhaps you should create a designated drop zone. This only needs to be a tub close by the front door, but the idea is that you have created a central zone that will minimise the mess throughout the rest of the house.

 

As you can see, there are plenty of ways that you can tackle the organisation in your home. Not only will this make your space feel bigger and neater, but it will also help to set up you for the year ahead and maybe even feel ready to tackle some home improvement projects too.

Moving home is rarely quick, but new Rightmove data reveals just how long the journey can now take. From listing your property to collecting the keys, understanding the timeline could help you avoid delays and plan your move far more effectively.

September has brought the first monthly asking price rise since May, but the headline only tells half the story. Prices are up 0.7%, sellers face a 12 year high in competition and mortgage rates have risen again. Here is what the latest Rightmove data actually means for your move.

With buyers enjoying more choice than at any August since 2014, your asking price has never worked harder. Price too high and you could lose your strongest opportunity before your sale has really begun. Here is how to get it right.

Getting an offer feels like the finish line. It isn’t. Around 1 in 3 transactions fall through and the average purchase takes around 120 days after an offer is accepted. Here is what homeowners can do before and after selling to give their move the strongest chance of completing.
