Comments...Based in the Borders, this firm has a very useful FAQ on Buying a House in Scotland, which highlights the differences between England and Scotland. here is also a guide to Selling your house. I like the design of the site - nice use of colours. Some properties have many pictures and info online and others have a schedule to download. Small pictures beside initial listing. For further properties, users are sent to http://www.propertylynx.co.uk/, a property website for the borders which happens to be sponsored by Hastings & Co. In fact on a visit to propertylynx I noticed that the firm's name appears frequently on the site. Excellent marketing strategy.
