- Confirm the asking/guide price and the price per acre with the agent.
- Check title, boundaries and access (ransom strips, servitudes) on ScotLIS / Registers of Scotland.
- Ask the local council planning service about residential/croft potential and any lapsed permissions.
- Confirm a water supply and a compliant septic discharge (SEPA general binding rules) are possible.
- Visit in person — ground conditions, drainage, exposure and access change everything.
