Every week a Guardian Money reader submits a question, and it's up to you to help him or her out – a selection of the best answers will appear in next Saturday's paper.

This week's question:

We have a large house but the mortgage is expensive and I have to work full time to pay it. I've been ill and would love to work part time, but that would mean moving to a smaller place. We're afraid we'd hate having less space. Have other readers faced this and how did they decide?
