Selling hundreds of properties each year, our goal is to modernise and simplify the property-buying process, keeping our buyers and sellers happy. We charge no selling fees to our vendors, so selling your property through us is free; we also frequently offer discounted or free home report surveys, allowing people who would struggle to afford to sell their property to move it on.

We cover all areas of Scotland, and have recently branched into England as well. We host our online auctions every two weeks, where you can bid in real time on residential, land, and commercial property.

Established in 2001 in England and Wales, The Empty Homes Network exist to support councils, Empty Homes Officers and practitioners across the UK in bringing empty homes back into use, through the sharing of best practice methods, hands-on experiences, and tools to develop effectiveness and efficiency.

A non-profit organisation, we lobby and campaign for service improvement, increased resources and enhanced tools, and assist those with the least capacity and experience to gain confidence whilst ensuring that those who are more experienced have a platform to share, develop and innovate.

Our Training and Consultancy services are designed and tailored to meet an authority’s specific needs, and compliment support services already available. These include: a full service review, challenging case appraisals, and empty homes strategy development.
