Today marked a milestone in our effort to move to Scotland. The contract was signed and we are the prowd owners of a plot at Loch Watenan!
The plot is on the east side of the Loch, but hidden from the street. An absolutely lovely view. And from the highest part we can even see the sea.
Now we have to wait to get the paperwork finished and returned and prepare for our first trip to our future home.
This is the plot we are trying to acquire. Still waiting for the identification to go through.
We submitted a verbal offer via our Solicitor which was appreciated by the seller and then submitted a formal written offer. So now we are now officially in negotiations!
Today we got the feedback that the seller will provide us written feedback within two weeks. So let’s hope and keep waiting …
This is the beginning. Or actually, it is not. It all started maybe in August 2004, when I have been to Scotland (yet another time). And during that trip I really convinced myself that – one day – I would move to Scotland’s north coast. Ok, twelve years later I have not yet managed that. But a week ago we have been to Scotland again and we reassured ourselves that we *MUST* secure a small portion of paradise for us.
And this is the story along the way. Maybe we succeed, maybe not. Let’s find out.
