What are the Scottish Standard Clauses?

In a nutshell, the Scottish Standard Clauses provide you with all the fundamentals you'll need when it comes to buying and selling property in Scotland. If there’s something in particular that you want to know about your desired property, that’s where you’ll find it: from information on the water and electricity supply, to the fixtures and fittings within the house that comprise a part of the sale.

 

Essentially, they serve alongside the missives as the basis of the legal contract between the buyer and the seller.

Scottish Standard Clauses – Edition 5

The fifth edition of Scottish Standard Clauses, produced by the Scottish Conveyancers Forum, came into effect on 29 August 2022.
