Divorce and Separation

There is no doubt that the pandemic has put additional pressures on many relationships and families, especially during the lockdown and this has resulted in some couples choosing to go their separate ways. But what are your options if you are considering divorce at this time? Find out more in our article ‘What effect is the pandemic having on divorce and separations?’

Moving House

The housing market remains open during the current period with people able to continue with new and planned moves. Conveyancers, estate agents, removers and valuers are able to continue working to progress transactions and people are still able to view properties as long as they follow government advice. Many buyers are currently taking advantage of the stamp duty holiday which is set to end on 31st March.

If you are thinking about buying a property to take advantage of the stamp duty holiday and have a property to sell, you should give yourself plenty of time to market your property so that you have the best possible chance to benefit from the stamp duty holiday. Read our article How long does buying or selling a property take at the moment?.
