KATE WATSON-SMYTH Author of Shades of Grey and Mad About the House blog, www.madaboutthehouse.com “Given the seismic events of 2016 and the resulting uncertainty in the markets, I think there will be a return to the old ‘don’t move; improve’ adage, as people decide to stay in their homes and ride out any economic uncertainty.
