Discover our new first-time buyers service
Have you almost saved your deposit for your first home? Are you confused or worried about the process ahead?
"Your mission should you choose to accept it is to follow the first-time buyer success blueprint over the next 6 weeks to overcome your fears and challenges so that you can buy your happy first home, escape renting and start the next stage of your life."
Hi, I’m Tom from Move Engine. We offer education and online training to first-time home buyers in the UK who are about to start the house buying process.
We help you get from where you are to where you want to go, whilst building your knowledge and skills so that you make better choices, avoid common mistakes and save time and money along the way.
What challenges do first-time buyers face?
For many years I have seen first hand the challenges first-time buyers face. What used to be a friendly supportive industry is now a much more online experience, which as a result has left first-time buyers trying to figure everything out alone.
Many of us enjoy searching on websites like Rightmove or Zoopla and this has become the main activity many people focus on.
However, it can be easy to get stuck just looking at properties online and not taking any next steps. Often because we have fears or challenges that are stopping us feel ready to move forward.
For many of us buying a home is a big deal. It is unlike anything we have purchased before in our lives and so this can lead to it feeling daunting and at times a bit overwhelming or confusing.
House prices have made things even worse
Added to it is the challenge of house prices. Over the last 8 years the average cost of a first home has climbed a lot! Making it hard for first-time buyers to reach a point where they can actually secure a mortgage on the home they want.
This increase in house prices has led to you needing to save an even larger deposit. Every additional cost or expense when buying eats into your ability to invest that money in your new home. But equally many people forget the mistakes can be expensive too.
And then there is the competition. With so few homes available to buy we can find ourselves struggling to find a home that is suitable for us and often competing with other buyers for the best homes.
I thought there has to be a better way to start your journey and that’s where the Move Engine service began.
That’s where our “first home success blueprint” comes in to help you
Our signature system to help you focus on what matters to you
- Knowing you can afford not only the mortgage but all the ongoing costs
- Being confident to buy a home that you enjoy and gives you a lifestyle that makes you happy for several years to come
- Getting a good mortgage deal that is right for you and understanding them and how they work so you can manage them yourself in the future
- Helping you find the best home for you
It also helps you build up the right skills so that you can:
- Carry out your viewings so that you can avoid surprise costs and expenses
- Build up your knowledge so you feel more confident and ready to go out and buy
- Save time and money on the many move costs by being prepared in advance
It’s a bit like having a personal trainer or fitness coach to help you get where you want to go.
But before you are ready for that you are likely to have questions or challenges standing in your way.
Which is why I invite you to a ‘Complimentary Next Steps Coaching Session’:

About me
Hi, my name is Tom and I’ve worked in the property industry for over 15 years. It was both my personal experiences buying houses and the lack of support in the industry for first-time buyers that led me to start Move Engine. Having gone into the buying process with such high expectations, I was disappointed with the lack of help and support available.
So Move Engine was created and I went out started to find the best partners in the industry to help you. In the last year I have personally helped over 50 first-time buyers with the next step of their journey. Our website had over 17,000 visitors in the last year and is continuing to grow.
If you are struggling to get started or have some questions holding you back, then let’s chat it through together so that you can move forwards. There are no silly questions when it comes to buying your first house and we are here to help you.
