Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from Edinburgh landlords dealing with inheritance

What can I do with an inherited property in Edinburgh?+

If you've inherited a property in Edinburgh or across the EH postcode area (EH1, EH2, EH3, EH4, EH6, EH9, EH11, EH15), you have several options. Landlord Exit offers a lease option agreement that takes over the property immediately — we handle management, cover costs, and protect the inheritance value. You avoid selling at a loss or becoming an unwilling landlord. We cover areas including Leith, Morningside, Marchmont.

Do I need probate before using Landlord Exit?+

Not always. We can structure agreements that work alongside the probate process, giving you certainty and taking the property burden off your shoulders while legal matters are resolved. Our team works with probate solicitors across Scotland regularly.

Will we lose value on the inherited property?+

No. Unlike a quick sale through an estate agent or cash buyer where you'd lose 20-40% of market value, our lease option agreements protect the full value of the inheritance. We agree a fair future purchase price and take over all costs in the meantime.

How quickly can you take over the property?+

We respond within 24 hours to beneficiaries in Edinburgh and across Scotland. Our lease option agreement can be in place within 7-13 days, during which time we take over all property costs and management.
