                          Hello, and welcome to the October issue of ESPC Property & Interiors!
                          As we settle into the autumn months, it’s time to hunker down and get
                          cosy if you’re planning on staying in your property for the season ahead –
                          and we’ve got all the advice you need, with tops tips to create an inviting
                          ambience and our pick of the products to create a ‘dark feminine’ feeling
                          in your home that’s perfect for the cooler months.
                          If you’re thinking of buying a property, don’t miss our feature on buying
                          with  friends  –  or  our  real  buyer  interview  on  page  40,  with  an  ESPC
                          buyer who purchased her first home with her sister. We’re looking at
                          West Lothian’s property market this month, and some famous filming
                          locations if you want a home with history on the silver screen. As ever,
       Laura              there are also pages of dream homes fresh on the market for you to
                          peruse – could one of them be yours?

       Laura Mearns,      We’re also exploring how home buyers move across the market, how
                          eco-friendly  upgrades  could  boost  your  property’s  value,  and  how
       Editor
                          the  Edinburgh  rental  market  has  changed  since  new  legislation  was
                          introduced six months ago.
                          Happy reading!
