As the UK approaches Budget day, much of the commentary around the property market has turned cautious. Yet the view from inside the market tells a very different story. At DM & Co. Homes, part of the wider Murfo group, we are seeing motivated sellers, engaged buyers, and stable demand. What we are experiencing is not a lack of confidence, but a short pause as homeowners wait for clarity. Well presented and well priced homes continue to sell, and the fundamentals of the market remain strong. Once the Budget is delivered, the clarity it brings is likely to unlock a renewed wave of activity. There is far more to be positive about than the headlines suggest.

Team Murfo took part in the Birmingham MoRun this November, running 10k in 1 hour and 12 minutes to raise awareness for men’s mental health. Dominic and Cherie were joined by Cherie’s father, Kev, for their second year supporting Movember — a cause close to their hearts.

murfo is proud to sponsor the Olympickle Games: Rally for Matt — a full day of fun, games, and community spirit in support of the Matt Gallagher Foundation. Together, we’re helping raise funds and awareness for those living with Motor Neurone Disease.

First impressions really do count when selling your home. At murfo, we help homeowners make small yet impactful changes that boost appeal and add value. From fresh paint and thoughtful detailing to creative design touches, these simple updates can transform how buyers see your property — proving that great design truly delivers.

There are some decisions you simply cannot make from behind a screen. Recently, we took clients to London to experience furniture first-hand — to sit, touch, and truly feel the pieces that would become part of their home. Choosing a sofa is about more than style; it’s about comfort, emotion and how your family lives day to day. By taking the time to test and explore, our clients discovered the difference between “nice” and “perfect.” And with the added benefit of designer guidance and trade-only pricing, it became clear that good design is not just about how things look, but how they live.

Quick Wins Consult is designed for homeowners who want maximum impact with minimal effort. Whether you are refreshing your current space or preparing your property for sale, this focused consultation gives you clear, practical advice on the small changes that make the biggest difference. From layout tweaks and styling tips to affordable touch ups that elevate presentation, Quick Wins Consult is a real win win — helping you love your home again or achieve the best price on the market.

It’s often the smallest details that leave the greatest impression. Explore how carefully chosen finishes — in homes, bars, or restaurants — transform design into lived experience.

No two journeys are ever the same. Some clients approach us seeking design advice and furniture supply to refresh a single room; others require a comprehensive refurbishment - whether a family home, a boutique restaurant, or a private bar. The scale and setting may vary, but our commitment to detail and quality remains constant.

A blueprint may map the structure, but true design lives in the atmosphere — the flow, the light, the materials. Discover how we move beyond drawings to create spaces that simply feel right.
