How to Reduce the Pressure of Lockdown

February 1, 2021

Covid-19 is disrupting everything. Work. Home. School. Social. Health.  For many of us, this means chartering unknown waters as we continue to work from home and help our children with home-schooling.  In fact, working from home during lockdown has magnified the stress, frustration, and anxiety women experience. With schools closed, no restaurants and some professional cleaners no longer working, women take over more of the chores at home. This includes home-schooling, cooking, cleaning, and providing after school care.  What’s more, with no hairdressers or personal beauty salons for waxing and nails, women are feeling tired, stressed and have an extremely limited “me-time.”  The result?  Some women feel like they are losing control and impacting their sense of self, business and self-confidence. If this is you, then there is hope. Even though lockdown measures are likely to be in place for a while, you can use the time to reinvent, re-energise […]

Now that we’ve put 2020 behind us… an unpredictable year in property due to the pandemic and the uncertainty of Brexit’s impact… we can look forward to seeing what this year holds. To find out if there will be growth in the rental market in 2021, we’ve researched the property predictions. Here is our summary. 1. Renting will remain a popular choice The rental market performed quite strong in the last half of 2020. Interestingly, in some locations, demand in the rental market was nearly 20% higher than in 2019. Our research shows that renting will continue to increase in 2021. This is due to ongoing job uncertainty pushing people to rent instead of buy. Once COVID restrictions ease, international students will likely return, and workers will be able to return to their offices, in some capacity. This is expected to see an increase in demand for rental accommodation.  2. […]

If you are considering converting your current property into an HMO, here’s what how to do it.
