Hi,
My Brother has reciently moved from London to Edinburgh in Scotland and is looking to buy an apartment to live in with his girlfriend.

They have about £70K for a deposit and are looking at apts for sale at around £200K.

Can anyone direct me/them? They are calling in to brokers etc but are geting conflicting views as they have not secured full time work yet.
Can anyone fill in some basic buyer questions?
  • What stamp is to be paid at £200K
  • What other transaction costs should they expect to pay
  • can they get a mortgage based on the properties rental ability alone? (as you can in England as an investor mortgage)
  • any tips/ refferals?
Thanks,
Ixer
