The phrase “cost of living crisis” was meant to describe a temporary event.
Instead, it’s become part of everyday language as affordability issues continue and inflation remains above the 2% Government target.
If you’re feeling squeezed or have something to save for, every penny counts. In this blog, we look at simple ways to cut back on everyday costs, including:
📍 Cutting energy bills without the hassle of constant switching
📍 Cheaper alternatives to running high-energy household appliances
📍 Reducing food and drink spend without sacrificing convenience
📍 Earning extra income through flexible side hustles
📍 Finding low-cost ways to enjoy days out and events

Are you heading to university this autumn? Finding somewhere to live is one of the biggest decisions you'll make before you even get there.
Most universities guarantee halls of residence for first-year students, usually close to campus, with private bedrooms, shared kitchens, and communal spaces.
They're a great way to settle in and meet people!
But if you're thinking about private accommodation, or want to compare your options before committing, the time to start is now. In many university towns, the best student houses get taken months in advance.
Before you sign anything:
✅ Make sure you understand what you're agreeing to.
✅ Check the tenancy length.
✅ Check deposit requirements.
✅ Check what bills are included, and whether there's a break clause.
And if you can't get to a viewing in person (whether you're overseas, in clearing, or just far away), that's not a reason to rush into a decision!
Viewber can visit any property in the UK on your behalf and give you photos, feedback, and a full report before you commit.
We've pulled everything together in one guide if you want to learn more 👉 https://t.co/JvKmWNnFhS

A property viewing can feel exciting. But excitement can make you miss the details that matter!
Whether you’re buying, renting, or investing, it’s easy to get distracted by a great layout or a fresh interior.
But cracks, damp, mould, missing roof tiles, wiring issues, noise, unusual smells, draughts, cold walls, and low water pressure can all tell a bigger story.
That’s why our latest blog breaks the viewing process down by:
👀 Sight
👂 Sound
👃 Smell
✋ Touch
It’s a practical way to stay focused and spot issues that may need follow-up with the agent, landlord, seller, or a specialist.
At Viewber, we’ve provided accompanied viewings since 2016 and have now completed 1 million property appointments, so we know how important a clear, objective checklist can be.

Is becoming a property investor a goal for you?
You don't need years of experience to get started. In fact, 33,395 new limited companies for buy-to-lets were registered by Millennials in 2025 alone. If you want to join them, speed can be a significant advantage.
Here are a few ways to invest in UK property quickly:
1️⃣ Buy for cash: Sellers often prefer cash buyers, which can lead to faster transactions and better negotiating power.
2️⃣ Purchase chain-free: A vacant home, new build, or probate sale can significantly speed up the process.
3️⃣ Consider auctions: Property auctions can reduce transaction times from an average of 205 days down to as little as 28.
These are just a few strategies for entering the property market. For all eight methods, check out the full article on our website.

WE’VE OFFICIALLY HIT 1 MILLION BOOKED APPOINTMENTS! 🥂🎉
It all started with a conversation on a muddy dog walk in Dorset - the moment the idea for Viewber came to life. Now, that idea has grown into 1,000,000 booked property appointments across the UK.
We want to say a massive THANK YOU to our incredible, dedicated nationwide network of Viewber Members and the 15,000+ loyal clients who rely on us every day.
Whether it’s viewings, inspections, or creating marketing packs, we couldn’t have reached this monumental milestone without your hard work and continued trust.
As our Co-Founder, Ed Mead, perfectly sums it up:
"One million appointments, made in the eight years the company has been going; despite writing that figure twice, I still cannot quite believe it... Ultimately - the biggest test of what we’ve built is that 1m people have trusted us to do business for them - that’s some testament."

Does every property listing really need magazine-quality photos? 📸
Buyers and tenants often zoom in on every detail of a space before stepping through the door.
But a smart approach to property photography means matching the service to your situation and budget.
At Viewber, we offer a choice between standard, phone-based photography and a full professional shoot. This gives you total flexibility for your workflow.
⏰ Need quick, clear images of a vacant rental or an auction listing? Our standard option keeps costs down and turnaround times fast.
🏡 Marketing a premium property? Our professional photography delivers that high-end polish to impress your clients.
Here is why your imagery strategy matters:
✅ Most buyers and tenants rely heavily on photos when shortlisting properties.
✅ Listings with strong visuals generate significantly more inquiries
✅ Virtual tours and floor plans increase time spent on listings and boost interest.
You can choose standard photography for speed, professional photography for maximum impact, or a complete Marketing Listing Pack for a fully polished listing.

For many landlords and letting agents, paying premium prices for professional property photography just doesn't make sense for every single property. 🏡
Sometimes, you just need clear, straightforward visuals to get a listing live fast or to check the condition of an empty property.
That’s where our Point and Shoot Photography service comes in as a cost-effective, practical solution.
Using a smartphone, a local Viewber will visit the property and capture exactly what you need.
Our standard photography offers:
➡️ 12 or 20 images of the interior, exterior, or both
➡️ Clear, functional visuals to get the job done
➡️ Next-day delivery straight to your inbox
Standard photography options start from just £44.30 (excluding VAT), making it an affordable way to tailor your marketing to your budget.
📸 And if you do need something a bit more polished, we offer brochure-quality Professional Photography, too!

Six years ago, we wrote about proptech companies worth keeping an eye on, including @Matterport, Fixflo and @sogoodlord.
Today, they are tools that many property professionals use every day. 🏡
Proptech is no longer something the industry is experimenting with. It is standard practice.
And AI is now a big part of that. The @AltoSoftware Agency Trends Report 2026 found that more than half of agents are prioritising AI this year. The most in-demand?
🔹 AI for compliance and anti-money laundering, with 66% of agents wanting to adopt it.
🔹 AI to manage leads and improve marketing.
🔹 Self-service portals for buyers and tenants.
There is also a lot happening in proptech right now:
➡️ @coadjute has launched Clara, a digital assistant for AML checks, designed for estate agents and home movers.
➡️ Benefitty has launched a rewards and cashback app for renters, offering discounts across more than 90 retail partners.
➡️ @HomeLet and @@letalliance have integrated their Vision+ tenancy management platform with @street_platform, enabling letting agents to share data across both systems without double-keying.
➡️ @rightmove has refreshed its Plus dashboard, making it easier for agents to find key metrics including available stock, price reductions, new instructions and market share comparisons.
➡️ DM Hall LLP now provides instant Home Report quotes online for sellers in Scotland. Vendors can get a price using just their property address and pay online straight away.
We explore all of this and more in our blog. Read it here: https://t.co/d7j2ZhBW0L
