Agent and conveyancing fees are negotiable. Get three quotes for everything, and move mid-month midweek.
Insure early or conditions are excluded for life. Why lifetime cover usually wins and how to cut routine costs.
Schools must keep branded uniform to a minimum, and trips in school hours cannot be compulsory. Plus the grants people miss.
Level term suits most families. How much and how long, why income protection matters, and writing it in trust.
