Or Are
You Looking For An Extra Special Gift?
Our
Lord or Lady
packs are ideal.
Have you ever
wondered what it would be like to be among the titled few? Well wonder no
longer.
Our packs give you
title to a plot of prime Scottish land on a picturesque highland estate.
As such a land owner, you will be privileged with the title of Laird, Lord
or Lady.
The title Laird is
the Scottish form of Lord and the accepted equivalent for women is Lady.
Scottish Law and
traditions state that the title may be used by owners of landed estates.
By purchasing from us, you will have FULL LEGAL rights to use the title.
The pack contains the fully personalised documents
including a Title Deed with an embossed seal, in a beautiful glossy full
colour folder, all regally hand gift wrapped with a tartan ribbon and gold
seal to complete the full package. This is then shrink wrapped to protect
the package in transit.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Is this really
legal?
Yes - this is fully legal. You are truly purchasing a Scottish Highland
Estate.
Do I need to register my land?
No. In fact The Land Registration (Scotland ) Act 1979 Section 4 (1)(b)
specifically removes the normal requirement to register your land, because
this is a souvenir plot. Unlike in England, Scotland has removed the need
to register your purchase in order to be the owner of the land, thus
permitting the transfer of title to take place under Contract Law. By
removing the need to register the transfer, small plots of land can be
sold without the expenses which would otherwise make this uneconomical.
You will receive a copy of the Deed of Transfer in your pack.
So I can honestly call myself a Laird?
Under United Kingdom law, as the owner of a Scottish estate, you will have
the full rights to style yourself as a Laird (Lord) or Lady.
What can I do with the land?
As the new owner, you can come and visit; take a walk in the "Laird's
Wood", take a photograph of your Estate or a picnic on the river bank. In
any event, you will be able to enjoy bird watching, fungi spotting,
country pursuits and lots of tranquillity.
How large is a plot?
Each Estate is one square foot
How Will I know which plot is mine?
In order to transfer the plot to you under Contract Law, we need to be
able to define its location precisely. We do this by providing you the
exact GPS location, using the UK Ordnance Survey reference system. The
location of each plot is unique.
Can I purchase one for someone else?
Absolutely. Just let us know what name to put on the certificate when
ordering. If you would like a message enclosed to the new Laird/Lady, and
the pack shipped directly to them, this is all part of the service. As is
customising the deeds with a special date i.e. a birthday or anniversary;
just let us know at the time of ordering.
Can I use my title for anything and in any
situation?
You may use your title at any time except for any illegal purpose - such
as to commit fraud, or obtain money by deception.
Can I leave this land to anyone?
Your land and title can be left to anybody through your will upon your
death or even sold to someone else if you wish to sell the land, after
all, it is yours. There are two covenants on the land. One prevents
shooting and the second prevents the Estate from being subdivided.
Can I change my bank account, passport, drivers
license?
This should not present a problem. Many people successfully change their
names on their legal documentation. However, we can't make promises on
behalf of these agencies. Why not contact your bank, the passport office
or other agencies in advance if this is a vital requirement for you?
Is there anything else to pay?
No. There are no land taxes in Scotland and absolutely no other costs
associated with buying or owning this land. Public liability insurance is
maintained over the entire wood which will continue in force after your
purchase. You will have no further expense to pay after the initial
purchase price.
Can I purchase several plots that are next to
each other?
Yes. All the plots you order at the same time will be next to each other.
Any plots ordered later will be part of a different block. If you think
that you will require more plots later, that need to be part of your
block, but do not yet know the name (for example unborn children) simply
order as many as you need in total and ask us to hold delivery of the
unknown plots until you can advise us of the details. We keep records of
all plots sold and can issue your certificates at any time you choose.
I want the Documents to have a special date. Will
you still send it now?
Yes, we will mail your pack without delay, with whatever date you ask to
be used on the documentation.
Is the frame in the photograph included?
The frame is just to show how the certificate would look framed. It is not
included.
What does the gift wrap look like?
The gift packaging is a cobalt blue paper, hand wrapped around the pack,
with a length of tartan ribbon folded around the package and sealed with a
gold embossed seal. This is then covered with a plastic film to protect
the gift wrap in transit and a label is attached to this outer covering to
confirm the details of the recipient.
PLEASE NOTE Once you have bought and paid for this item
we will contact you by e-mail for further information
eg the title and name required etc.
