It is all very overwhelming to think about moving. Packing up, getting new carpets, curtains etc. Leaving what you know, a room for a family member to stay. Changing bank/.gas, elec .
I can`t face it and I am sure I am not the only one.
In the ideal world I would go on holiday for a few weeks, come back and its all done.

I have recently downsized and miss having room for a tumble dryer and a couple of big indoor airers now that it's too damp to put laundry out.
I'd love some space saving ideas.

I’ve lived in the same house for thirty six years and I’ve accumulated a lot of things. Can you offer any advice on the best way to clear a home prior to moving into a much smaller property?

I’m considering downsizing from my 4 bedroom house . I’ve no experience of selling a house as my previous home was a rental.

What are the advantages of park home living? Are there restrictions on who the house can be sold on to after I’m gone.
