Mark Winship is joined by Caroline Claydon and Ryan Rogers, to discuss investing in Scotland - from the many attractive opportunities that can be had north of the border, as well as the key differences you need to be aware of when it comes to maximising your profits and investment potential. KEY TAKEAWAYS There is a dramatic rise in uniformity between properties in Scotland, but there is also a marked demand for social housing. Investing in flats and apartments can mean solid rental returns. Gazumping is allowed in Scotland, but it is greatly frowned upon and can have a huge impact upon your reputation. Exchanging contracts and completing is not done in Scotland - instead missives are signed. This becomes a legally biding contract from which neither party can extract themselves. The entire process of doing the deal is far more streamlined and takes weeks rather than the months we are used to in England. BEST MOMENTS 'There's a very strong demand for social housing in Scotland' 'You can literally buy property in Scotland while sitting on a beach on the other side of the world' 'You can put in verbal offers without a solicitor' 'Just get that process started. Once the offer's accepted, then go and chat to your solicitor' VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591 Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!
