On Monday 29 June 2020 Scottish housing market can resume as housing moves restrictions will be relaxed. It means that local letting agents, like Edinburgh Letting Centre, can reopen – but for now it will be a ‘new normal, not ‘business as usual’. Our office will reopen for appointments, we will resume face to face viewings for potential tenants who had already attended a virtual viewing. Non emergency repairs can resume – but both tenants and tradespeople should follow the latest physical distancing guidelines.
