Small House Tour & Our Scotland Home Buying Experience

Ep: 6 – Subscribers: 5,046

Thanks for joining! Today, we are outlining our house buying process in Scotland and comparing it to what we went through with our first home purchase in California. We’ll be including things such as the infamous blind bid system, offers over, solicitors, and so much more! We’ll also be giving a very “rough” house tour and sharing some of our BIG plans for this small family home (956sqft). Keep in mind the average family home size in the U.S. is ~2,000sqft. Get ready for plenty of future DIYs as we’ll be finding creative ways to increase our storage and to make our home function for us! We hope you enjoy this slightly slower pace video. If you’re interested in our moving to Scotland journey, please check out our previous 5 videos. We’re loving our new life so far and can’t wait to share an up to date house tour once we get settled! Thank you for all the support.
