    It looks a beautiful flat, I've no experience of the Scottish system, could you not try talking to your estate agent, or even other estate agents in the area? They should have more experience. Another thought is https://www.nethouseprices.com to see if similar flats have sold recently and how much for. Good luck with it anyway.

    Don't know about Edinburgh but in Aberdeen flats are going for way over the figure stated. Heard about a £110k flat going for £190k. 40% seems to be normal but I've heard of 80%. Just gone crazy.
