It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas!

It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas!

On a pretty drab Saturday morning, our team at Hockley decided to add a little festive cheer to Spa Road by setting up our community stall, finding a face painter at short notice and handing out hundreds of chocolate coins to youngsters passing by the office.

The last Saturday before Christmas was the perfect time to deliver an impromptu Christmas party outside our Hockley branch in Spa Road and welcome youngsters to receive free of charge face painting and the chance to win some chocolate coins by answering a simple Christmas question!

See how you would have got on....

Q. Does Santa say Ho, Ho, Ho or No, No, No?
Q. Name one of Santas Reindeer?
Q. Does Santa wear a Red or Green suit on Christmas Eve?
Q. Does Santa live in the South Pole or the North Pole?

Thanks to Caitlin for the face painting and everyone who stopped to take part. Happy Christmas from us all.

The rental market remains active in May 2026, but conditions are changing. Demand is still strong, rent growth has eased, and tenant expectations are rising. Here is what landlords should be thinking about now.

More homes are competing for buyer attention, so sellers need more than a hopeful asking price. A smart launch, realistic valuation and strong presentation can help attract serious interest.

Artificial intelligence is starting to shape the way people sell, buy, rent and let homes. Used well, it can make the moving process smarter, faster and more connected.

For the first time in years, rents have stopped rising — a clear sign the lettings market is shifting. With supply improving and demand easing, both tenants and landlords are navigating a more balanced landscape. At Amos Estates, we’re helping clients make sense of these changes and plan ahead with confidence.
