Five very different homes caught our eye this month — from a 1920s family home and countryside views, to Victorian character and waterside living at Braunston Marina. Here’s a quick look at the September properties we kept coming back to.

What does the property market actually feel like as we head into autumn? National headlines only tell part of the story, particularly here in the Midlands. Our latest update looks beyond the headlines to explain what’s changing, what matters locally and what you should be thinking about if a move could be on your horizon.

Upsizing usually means managing two transactions at once, your sale and your onward purchase, and keeping both moving together is often the most stressful part of the whole process. A little planning makes it considerably more manageable.

It is entirely common to accept an offer on your current home before you have found your next one, and it does not need to be as stressful as it might sound.

Selling a property with a co-owner you are separating from can be managed in a genuinely practical, straightforward way, without needing every decision to be a difficult conversation.

When you are upsizing, the excitement usually starts with browsing properties online and imagining your next step. It is completely natural to want to find your ideal home first, but starting your search before your own sale is underway can lead to unnecessary frustration.
