Have You Thought About Rightsizing?

Rightsizing is the process of understanding how you live in your home, uncluttering your life, and then moving to a new space (often smaller than your previous one) in which you can fully utilise each room, reduce your monthly outgoings, improve your health and wellbeing and increase social connections.

To make things easier for you if you choose to move house, MSV offer services to help:-

MSV's Helping Hands Service

We offer a dedicated officer with support service tailor made to our customer requirements such as decluttering and transferring services to your new address.

Flourish Homes Removal Service

We have partnered with a specialist removal firm to assist with packing and removals and will support residents with an individual moving plan.
