About how much does it cost to buy a cottage in the Scottish Highlands?

Question

Nothing super fancy, preferably something with running water and electricity.

Answer 1

So the credit crunch and the news of house prices crashing has passed you by huh? *lol*

"According to the Registers of Scotland Executive Agency, prices between January and March 2004 were 27% higher than they were for the same period in the previous year. However, the average house price for the Highlands during this period stood at £92,348, well below the Scottish average of £106,932."

I think now would be a really bad time to buy though. It's the right time to rent a property up there and wait for the market to bottom out. Here's a wonderful Google jump-off to rental sites:
