Important Information for Prospective Purchasers
This schedule is intended only to help you decide whether to view the property. We always recommend you view the property personally.
The information is believed to be correct, but it is not warranted and is not to form part of any contract of sale. All dates, distances, areas and room sizes noted are approximate and for use as a general guide only. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the working condition or otherwise of any equipment such as central heating or kitchen appliances.
This schedule should not be taken as a comment on the condition of the property. This is a matter for your surveyor and we recommend that once you have found a property you are interested in, you obtain a survey report. We can provide details of surveyors if required.
Interested parties are advised to note their interest through their solicitor as soon as possible so that they can be informed if a closing date is fixed. Noting interest does not place any obligation on the seller to set a closing date or to give any noted interests the opportunity to offer. Whilst every effort will be made to advise noted interests of any closing date set, this cannot be guaranteed.
No responsibility will be accepted for expenses incurred by parties who have noted interest but do not get an opportunity to offer, or for any expenses incurred traveling to properties which have been sold or withdrawn.
Susan Breen (Property Manager) and Andrea Ross (Senior Associate) at Harper Macleod, Inverness, did a wonderful job successfully guiding and supporting my wife and me through the process of selling our home and buying a new one. It was as seamless a process as I can ever imagine. It was a real pleasure to deal with two professionals happy to make themselves and their expertise available to us. I should mention that a key aspect of HM’s service stood out for me: Both Susan and Andrea were proactive in helping drive the sale and purchase processes through to completion. They helped make things happen rather than waiting for things to happen. We can’t recommend Harper Macleod, and in particular, Susan and Andrea, highly enough.
