TOP TIPS for a stress-free move

Moving into a new home should be an exciting experience, getting organised, starting a new chapter and putting your own stamp on your new home or apartment. But it seems we let the stress of the million and one thing’s on the moving house to do list get the better of us. New research has revealed that moving house is considered one of the top ďŹ ve most stressful things a person ever has to go through in life, along with divorce and bereavement.

Hot Topic Let’s face it; stress is unavoidable in today’s society. Scientists have pinpointed Cortisol as the ‘stress hormone’ that pumps through our veins every time a difficult situation comes our way. A recent You Gov poll estimated that the stress of moving home keeps almost seven million people awake in Britain every night. In the spirit of ‘keep calm and carry on’ that seems to be our generations trademark we speak to top estate agents and moving experts to bring you the best practical advice on taking the strain out of moving.

“If you can afford it why not employ a professional removal company and stand and watch while they do all the work,” says estate agent Sue Taylor at Keppie Massie.

Professional removal companies pack your goods and move them. They can even place furniture in the right place but remember that as a rule they don’t unpack boxes at your new home.

1. Make lists and plan ahead One sure fire way to stop stress in its tracks when moving into a new home is to make a realistic, clear and defined moving plan. Stress triggers go off when we begin to feel like events are outside of our control, creating a detailed plan puts the ball back in your court and you are on your way to feeling in control of the move.

“Start by writing out a tick list of all the moving tasks you need to complete with a timeline that starts three months before your move date,” says ITV This Morning’s home moving expert, Alison Cork.

When it comes to preparing for the big move try to plan and organise as far in advance as possible.

Ahead of the move buy boxes and put them in each room so you can pack as you go if possible. Always be prepared for more items to come out of your home than expected - you will be surprised at the amount of things you can accumulate over the course of a few years in a property. If things are starting to get cluttered, now might even be the best time to do some streamlining. You could separate excess belongings that you don’t use anymore into a bin bag that could go straight to charity. Once the packing stage is complete label each box clearly by room so that unpacking is as straightforward as possible once you get to your new home.

2. Get friends and family to help When the all important moving day comes around you’re going to need some help. Ask your friends and family to get involved well in advance and keep them motivated on the day with snacks and cakes. As the old saying goes, many hands make light work and with all the extra hands your moving will be done in next to no time.

Getting friends and family involved can make moving a fun experience. If they’re failing to see the fun side promise them that once the bulk of the work is done, you’ll crack open a bottle of wine as a reward for all of their hard work.

3. Get the professionals in Of course, friends and family might not always be available to help on moving day and full service professional moving companies can pack and move all of your belongings into your new home without you ever having to lift a finger.

4. Be careful when booking a removal van

“If you can afford it why not employ a professional removal company and stand and watch while they do all the work” Sue Taylor Keppie Massie

If hiring the professionals isn’t an option be careful when organising your own removal van. Keep in mind that the smaller the van you hire the more trips you will have to make in order to transport all of your stuff.

Estate agents also advise that you shouldn’t get ahead of yourself by booking a removal van before all parties confirm a set moving date as this can cause problems later on.

“Too many sellers book removal vans too early,” says estate agent Darren Carter at Reeds Rains.

“This means that there is then another third party that you have to rearrange with should the date change.”

5. Think about your pets And finally, spare a thought for your pets, while we consider moving a stressful experience take into account that they can’t even understand what is going on.

It’s widely recognised that one of your pet’s biggest fears while you are moving is that it isn’t going with you. Give pets plenty of reassurance, try to keep them in one room during packing and you could even consider plug in pheromones such as Feliway for cats or DAP for dogs to calm your stressed pets.

Alison Cork, home moving expert, says, “For you and your pets moving home doesn’t have to be stressful. In fact, it should be an exciting time when you embark on a new chapter and make new friends.”

Don’t forget that the stress of moving home is only temporary and that you will soon be settled in. The best way to make yourself feel at home once your move is complete is to put the kettle on in your new kitchen, set up your TV or even find your nearest local takeaway. So you can really start to relax and get on with enjoying your new home.

City Councillor Opens Show Homes Gleeson Homes welcomed Ann O’Byrne, Liverpool City Council’s cabinet member for housing and community safety, to their Cawdor Park development on Ponsonby Street in Granby where the councillor officially opened the show home area.

SUTTON KERSH AUCTION SUCCESS Sutton Kersh sold sixty one properties at its recent auction and generated total proceeds of £5,135,650 marking Merseyside's best auction result since 2009.

The event took place on July 12 at the Liverpool City Centre Marriott Hotel.

Pre auction activity was particularly high with twenty

The Bury based housebuilder is regenerating this former wasteland into 65 brand new two and three bedroom homes priced to suit local buyers. The construction of the new homes for private sale is just part of the on-going regeneration of Granby under the city council’s housing renewal project.

Linda Matura, sales manager for Gleeson Homes, says: “Prices of our homes at Cawdor Park start from £75,196 with FirstBuy. When purchasing a home with the FirstBuy scheme a family or couple need a joint income of just £21,000 to buy a two bedroom home with a weekly mortgage payment of £90, which is cheaper than the local rental rate”.

After performing a ribbon cutting ceremony and taking a tour of the show homes Cllr O’Byrne said: “It is wonderful to see how Gleeson has transformed the wasteland into a new community of modern, spacious homes.

The affordable prices will appeal to both local buyers and bring new people to Granby which will in turn have a very positive effect on the community”.

Gleeson’s sales office and show homes are open daily 10am to 5pm. For more information please call 0151 4820863 or visit www.gleeson-homes.co.uk

Cathy Holt, auction manageress at Sutton Kersh says: “We are delighted with our results from the first half of the year and have received a good

number of enquiries about our September auction so I am hopeful we can carry this momentum into our remaining three auctions.”

Diversifying pays off for builder

RENTAL MARKET ‘STRONGER THAN EVER’ As the summer continues, Liverpool agent Andrew Louis is finding that there is little sign of the rental market starting to slow down.

Demand this year is stronger than ever across all parts of the city,” says new business manager Andrew Williams.

“The good news for landlords is that empty periods are at some of their shortest lengths for some time.

Andrew says all kinds of properties are popular but apartments across the city centre rent especially quickly, as do flats and houses in some of the more popular and fashionable parts of South Liverpool such as Sefton Park, Aigburth and Allerton.

He attributes this to the fact that the company has invested substantially in technology to help find a tenant quickly.

“Our bespoke computer system automatically matches each new instruction to those people who have registered with us, and they get a text message and email from us before it has hit the internet and certainly way before it appears in the press,” he says.

“This is even better news for those sellers who are struggling to find a buyer. Should they be able or in a position to rent their property out, they’ll find that they have a tenant in a very short time which would mean that they can make their move onwards quickly.”

And being ARLA and Safe Let registered means that Andrew Louis has to maintain the highest standards of professionalism.

For more information call into their Stanley Street office, or call Andrew or one of the team on 0151 330 5333.

Dave Walker

A Widnes building company which has just diversified in to three specialist areas is welcoming new clients after it won a number of new tenders.

Armistead Building Services, based at Restoration House in Rhyl Street, consists of Armistead ABS Chemdry, Armistead Construction and Armistead Energy Solutions and is about to take on more work in both the insurance and construction industry.

Armistead ABS Chemdry is one of the areas where the business is expanding. It works to control damage following a flood and then Armistead carries out the renovation on behalf of the insurance company.

Dave Walker, managing director of Armistead Building Services, says: “It allows both the insurance company and the client to work with one contractor with much less upheaval. In fact, the business model for Chemdry has been so successful that Armistead Construction was born after Housing Associations, Architects and Surveyors asked if they could work with the company in the same way on new build and renovation projects.”

This has meant that Armistead

has been able to create more jobs and take on two apprentices.

It has also launched its new corporate branding and new van signage.

Dave says: “We’re very lucky to still be growing despite these difficult economic times. But by looking towards what people will need in the future, such as the green deal we offer with Armistead Energy Solutions where people can carry out renovations to reduce carbon emissions and energy consumption in the home and pay for it through their existing bills, we are always trying to look forward.”

Final three on The Waterfront the government backed scheme designed specifically to help first time buyers onto the property ladder.

Using FirstBuy the Leigh is available for just £79,995, the Rufford at £91,995 and the Buckingham at £127,995.

Jen Brown, sales manager for Keepmoat North West, says: “The Waterfront has been really popular, particularly with firsttime buyers and young families taking advantage of the superb value, quality new homes and the FirstBuy assisted purchase scheme. These last three homes will undoubtedly continue this popularity so buyers should move fast to secure a great home at a great price.”

The Waterfront

There are just three homes remaining at Keepmoat’s canal side development, The Waterfront in Bootle and as such the developer is offering a series of star buy deals.

ENTWISTLE GREEN SCOOPS AWARD Countrywide Residential Lettings, the UK’s largest letting agent, is celebrating double success after winning two prestigious awards.

Judges at this year’s Lettings Agency of the Year Awards in association with The Sunday Times and The Times were impressed by Countrywide’s network of branches, which include Entwistle Green in Allerton, Liverpool.

The annual Lettings Agency of the Year Awards are the only awards dedicated to the residential lettings market.

The last three plots at the Bootle site comprise the two bedroom semi-detached Leigh, the three bedroom semi-detached Rufford and the four bedroom detached Buckingham.

All three are available to purchase through FirstBuy,

For more information about these homes visit the sales office on Pine Grove in Bootle, open Thursday to Sunday 10am – 5pm and Monday, 10am – 6pm or call 0151 922 1463. www.keepmoat.com.

The Sunday Times judges praised the group’s recent marketing campaigns launched for tenants and landlords. Other highlights include the company’s dedicated Renewals Team, a new Graduate Management Scheme and a 100% increase in its training and development investment.

Entwistle Green is backed by Countrywide, which created nearly 300 jobs, opened 62 branches and made 12 acquisitions in as many months during 2011.

Success at the Sunday Times Awards follows another significant win for Countrywide at the recent RESI Awards 2012, during which Countrywide scooped Gold for UK Lettings Agent of the Year.

Terence Sherlock, branch manager at Entwistle Green in Allerton, says: “The lettings market is going through a phenomenal growth period, and these recent award wins demonstrate the investment we’re making in our staff, our services, our technology and our marketing

campaigns to secure more properties at a time when tenant demand outstrips supply.

“Our Countrywide backing provides the support we need to deliver a truly unique and comprehensive lettings offering that helps both landlords and tenants with their every property need.”

Free rent guarantee for Ormskirk landlords An Ormskirk property lettings company has become the first in the area to guarantee rent payments to landlords for free.

NSW Properties is including the rental guarantee as part of its usual management service.

Director Neil Warnock said: “We found that in these difficult economic times people are losing jobs, can’t make ends meet and are finding they can’t pay the rent, creating a terrible situation for the landlord. The new guarantee scheme is now part of the 10% management fee we usually charge so landlords can have peace of mind that their payments will be covered while the tenant finds alternative employment.”

The new scheme comes as the company launches its revamped website which aims to show prospective tenants and landlords just what NSW has to offer the market.

Liam Patton, director of Liverpool based Mayfly Internet Marketing, the company behind the new website said: “I’ve worked with NSW Properties for the last three years and it already has great success renting to the student market but this website offers much more than that. It’s easy to search and shows that MSW can fulfill the needs of all sorts of tenants and landlords and is on the cutting edge of modern technology. You can even download its new app for your phone and iPad.” To find out more about NSW Properties visit www.nswproperties.co.uk call 01695 581 260 or drop the team an email at info@nswproperties.co.uk

Hot & Happening HOT PROPERTY NEWS IN LIVERPOOL Would-be buyers were given the chance to witness the spectacular views from the Mann Island Longitude building at a recent event held by Countryside Properties.

NewBuy success

The Venmore team is celebrating once again this week after another successful auction.

The rain did little to dampen spirits as the popular event saw a great turnout.

The auction took place on Thursday 19 July 2012 at 1pm in the Liverpool Town Hall, and featured a mix of 50 lots including residential, commercial and development opportunities for landlords and investors.

Following a successful May auction where 68% of residential lots were snapped up by keen bidders, the firm experienced high levels of interest in the variety of properties up for auction this month, with lots spanning from Wallasey in the Wirral, to Southport and St Helens.

Ronan Connolly, Venmore Auction Sales Manager comments: “In this auction we had a great variation of lots including a former builders merchants located in Aigburth, student let investments both in Wavertree and Aigburth and a beautiful period building converted into seven apartments in Grove Park L8.”

Located at the heart of Liverpool’s World Heritage designated waterfront these apartments have spectacular vistas out towards the river.

“What these properties offer are the best views in the city and we want to show potential residents exactly what is on offer,” said Countryside regional sales and marketing director Peter Vella.

“The Mersey is the focus of so much that goes on in the city, from festivals to the arrival of giant cruise ships. It’s an amazing place and residents will have a front row seat for all of this.”

Visitors to the showcase also had the opportunity to speak to an independent financial adviser who was on site.

Countryside says it was thrilled with the reaction to the apartments in the Latitude block which was the first to come to market, and are looking forward to a similar response to those in Longitude.

One-bedroom apartments are available to buy from as little as £120,000, and there are also two and three bedroom apartments plus penthouse options.

Countryside Properties also have shared equity options in place on a number of apartments.

Taylor Wimpey is maintaining a strong sales momentum with the government-backed NewBuy scheme, making 200 sales just weeks after breaking the 100 sales mark. Taylor Wimpey’s achievement represents almost one-third of total sales using the scheme, which only launched in March 2012.

NewBuy is continuing to be well received by both first and second time purchasers. The scheme means credit worthy first time buyers may now only need to save a 5% deposit before they

for Taylor Wimpey can get on the property ladder.

In addition, home movers with limited equity in their existing house will also benefit from the increase in availability of 95% loan to value mortgages.

Anthony Mansfield, regional sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey Manchester said: “The fact that we’ve already reached 200 sales through NewBuy at Taylor Wimpey is testament to our commitment to supporting home buyers by enabling them to move affordably. The scheme has been an invaluable selling tool as it has supported many types of home mover, including first time buyers and those moving up the

property ladder.

“Since its launch, NewBuy is now being offered by five mortgage lenders and over 15 house builders, demonstrating the industry’s dedication to assisting new house hunters achieve their goal of home ownership. I strongly believe over the coming years, the scheme will continue to be a great asset to both home movers and the construction industry alike.”

BRITAIN’S BIEBER Ever since Brighton-born teenager CONOR MAYNARD caught the world’s attention with his performances on YouTube, he rapidly became known as the next big thing in music.

Now signed by one of the largest recording companies in the world, EMI Parlophone, and with his debut album ‘Contrast’ out in a matter of weeks, Your Move got the chance to talk to 19-year old Conor about his influences, how he still finds time for his friends and family and how he doesn’t want to just be known as the UK’s answer to Justin Bieber.

INTERVIEW BY JAMES ORRELL How does it feel to go from average teenager from Brighton to being signed by one of the foremost record company in the world? It’s a great experience. The way it happened was a whirlwind; it was crazy. However, my relationships with friends and family haven’t changed. I try to see them as much as possible and they still treat me as ‘normal Conor’.

Who would you say has influenced your music the most?

Growing up I listened to artists like Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder and later I began listening to more R+B singers like Usher, Ne-Yo and Justin Timberlake. Now I’d say I’m more influenced by a lot of hip-hop like Jay-Z and Kanye West.

The two singles that you have released so far have been focused primarily on the theme of love. In the future would you want to explore other themes?

One of the main reasons for calling the album ‘Contrast’ is because of the contrast in the album, when people hear it they’ll find all different styles. I don’t want to be seen just as one type of artist.

Already you’ve gained enthusiastic support from rapper Pharrell Williams and singer Lily Allen, do you think that has been a major contributor to your rapid international success?

To have that interest from people I’ve looked up to is definitely a boost. It’s great that people know about me and people respect my music and I think it’s always nice to have interest from people who’ve influenced you.

You’ve constantly been compared to US teen sensation Justin Bieber, how do you feel about the comparison?

It’s easier to be compared to him in this early part of my career, we’re both young and both went through YouTube to start our careers but I think it’s better for people to make their own opinions about my music.

Do you like being placed in the ‘teen sensation’ bracket with artists like One Direction and Justin Bieber, or would you prefer to be considered on the same level as those artists that have influenced your music?

Well, soon I won’t be a teenager! My album does have quite a young sound but obviously I admire music from the more mature artists so to be considered on that same level would be great. There are tracks on the album for all ages.

Do you think it was easier for you to break into the music industry because of your age and the obvious teen appeal?

That’s been a massive benefit but there are still millions of teenagers who are trying to do the same thing. I’ve put a lot of hard work in to prove myself and get to the point I’m at today.

What advice would you give to anyone who wants to break into the music industry?

Going through YouTube is a massive platform to start a career so I’d definitely advise that but obviously a lot of people follow that route so it’s important to put own unique twist on it to get people to respect you as your own artist rather than someone just doing a cover. You want fans of you, not fans of the song.

What are your future plans with music, more specifically with your album?

I want as many people as possible to get to listen to it. Doing a world tour and going to all different countries would be amazing.

Conor will play Liverpool’s 02 Academy on July 26.

We can see many positives in the Green Deal for landlords and that’s why we want to tell them about it,” says Ady. And once again, it’s not just about profit and growth of the business as he explains that becoming the North West provider for the Green Deal would mean not just 100 more jobs for Armistead but 100 jobs for local people.

The Armistead group are a company who not only know how to weather a storm but also how to come out dry with all passengers intact.

Private landlords interested in learning more about the benefits of the Green Deal can register their interest for Armistead’s seminar at ady@armistead.co Your Move 69

CARNIVAL QUEEN

B 3

razilica hosted its annual competition to crown its Carnival Queen at Liverpool ONEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Palm Sugar.

The event marked the beginning of the biggest samba carnival in the UK, a three-day festival, bringing a taste of Brazilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s culture and its carnival atmosphere to Liverpool. All around the venue there was an array of colour, sequins and feathers as carnival queens showed off their samba moves.

The samba dance-off saw dancers from all around the world come together to decide who the Queen of the Carnival was.

Highlights from the rest of the festival included the Official Brazilica Opening Party on Friday, the Soccer Zone in Clayton Square on Saturday and the International Carnival Cook-up at Camp & Furnace on Sunday. For more information go to www.brazilicafestival.com
