Everyone refers to it as a good model whenever they hear of a chain collapsing ("ahhhh shame. We should do what they do in Scotland"). Is that the case? Is it genuinely less glitchy than the system in England and Wales?
What's the process like in N. Ireland and other places?
I've heard of many difficult and disappointing scenarios over the years relating to fickle buyers/sellers. The worst was that of an old lady who lost her place in a retirement home because her house sale fell through; she had a fatal heart attack later that week which her sons were convinced was stress-related. I can't help thinking that Something Should Be Done but I don't know what.
