Hi all,

everyone can now participate to the Edinburgh business directory!

You can recommend a professional and indicate you appreciate its services.

> A plumber did a great job with your water leak?

> A restaurant always welcomes you warmly?

> A real estate agent helped you to find your dream home in Edinburgh?

Come on: share your insider info and tips on local businesses.

What do you think of that new feature?

Thanks in advance for your ideas and suggestions,

Julien

Ryden Lettings in Hanover Street are pretty good with finding rentals for ex-pats. But be warned. You may have to offer to pay the rent six months in advance to secure the let. Now that banks require fairly large deposits before they will lend on property, there really isn't as much rental property on the market in edinburgh compared to the past. And what there is has become quite expensive.
