Buying a HOUSE in SCOTLAND - Is this the right decision?

[@kingingit]

When we FINALLY get those house keys... whats the first thing you want to see?!

[@KatesThings]

The f***ing keys!😊

[@brownie_world]

Wig wall wig wall wig wall!!!!! Amiee I’ll help you convince Craig🫶🏼

[@bernedicte5860]

the keys

[@queenofeverythingx2]

I want to see the keys openthe door.

[@ElisabethKisselstein]

Whatever you are most happy/excited about - which might just be the keys!

[@YouTube]

u can take the Kinging- It out of Wales but you can't take the Wales out of Kinging- It ♥

[@PassiveAgressive319]

Please tell Eamon and Bec that we are all thinking of them. We saw that blink if you miss it picture with them and the new baby. We just want to wish them well

[@dianeyoung2914]

Same here, it's like they have just vanished after investing so much time and worrying about them then nothing!

[@denisegreene8441]

Think of it this way. They are on maternity leave. Most people don't go into the office during their maternity / paternity leave. We are all just co workers that spend 15 - 20 min a week with each other. They have put way more effort into that 15 min than "fans ". We just turn on a laptop or phone for 15 min. And watch a video. They have to film their whole life, edit, upload. I think they have earned time away with their baby.

[@dianeyoung2914]

@@denisegreene8441 I don't in anyway begrudge them taking time out, they have earned it but they could have just done a typed message saying hey folks, everything is fine, baby is fine but we are going to take some time to just be new parents, especially as their last video was so fraught and left things up in the air.

[@denisegreene8441]

In Canada we can. My partner took time with each of our babies. And they did do a welcome to the world to the baby, with pics. They mentioned they would be taking time off on that posting. Maybe everyone hasn't read it but they definitely left a message saying they would be taking time off to be with the baby. They did not give a timely e but I believe utube only allows six months of inactivity so they will have to post something within the next four months.

[@sanmassara2541]

I built my own house in 2017 and lived in a 18 foot camper for 14 months while I built it. My most honest suggestion would be, finish one thing at a time. It is so much more rewarding that way. I started to many things at once and it did not take long to feel overwhelmed. Love you guys and congratulations! ♡

[@noelbowerman1562]

I absolutely agree with that ,you will get sick of working on one part or one room ,but stick with it of you'll have half finished stuff every where. P.s I built my own home too.

[@clherms]

We have a couple of chaps in our neighborhood/area who went into too many areas/projects and ended up selling as I think they got overwhelmed. Great advice!

[@Ray-pt5bi]

I also agree on that! We bought a house and wanted to do all these things..then the heater died and 50k went there. So maybe I'm partial, but I'd put in a Good heating system (pellet+solar+wood?) And take one room at a time, living in it. Only that way you learn what you really Need. Some things Just don't serve you as well practically as you'd think in theory. Basic stuff like placement of the built in furniture, placement of lighting, even sleeping arrangements..go minimal until you figure out what you really Need. And have fun!❤

[@Ray-pt5bi]

Oh and Good Thick Windows!! Very important

[@fancybear9476]

One Thing At A Time 👑Best advice 💜

[@bonniepelletier9990]

Yeah!! You know it’s going to be a good day when “Kinging It “. has a new video!! 👍

[@kingingit]

Ahhh thanks Bonnie! Ya Wee Legend

[@klw8771]

Yeah Craig & Aimee!! Those cold water plunges are EPIC & SO good for your health! Way to go!!! (I’m Scottish by marriage but ADORE Scotland) can’t wait to see your remodel. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

[@shimmerysummersun]

You two just always bring a ray of sunshine to people's day!

[@karenrouth2056]

Without the keys you’ve been able to become more and more integrated into your incredibly beautiful surroundings and share this stunning glorious video… AND enjoy relaxing together in Custard before the hard work begins… your keys will be in your hands very soon … you’re both doing great and staying positive, well done guys ❤❤

[@vickiwalker3486]

“With more room for bigger wings!” I love this!!!

[@sheilamorrell6329]

So glad you mentioned Eamonn and Bec. I've been wondering how they are. As usual you never fail to entertain. Good luck with keys.

[@44buddhist]

What a way to start my day. Thank you so much for your craziness, love and laughter. If anyone is feeling down and fed up, just watch Craig and Aimee and all will be well in your world. Love you two to bits 💓💓

[@deesewell7677]

I think as an English woman we are so lucky to have such beautiful countries such England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Each one unique but stunningly beautiful. Looking forward to your new adventures, hopefully with a puppy of some kind, sometime soon lol xxx

[@thehighlandlife2023]

@JohnHarthomstowCEOI love this! I haven’t done as much travelling, not even close!, but we just love living in the Scottish highlands. Feels like a whole world of its own x

[@karppadiem7014]

Finally! Can't wait to watch! So excited for you guys. I turned 57 yesterday and this is a perfect bday present on this chilly day. 🎉🎂💞 -western NY Aimee

[@kingingit]

Whoo Happy Birthday Aims!!! Hope you celebrated in style! 🍰

Honestly, only channel where I'm excited when the sponsored ad section starts. Also, An Torr Scotland 🤤

[@soundtravels4348]

I got a kitten a month ago, and he's smitten with you guys already. He sits on my chest while I watch you guys, and he won't take his eyes off the screen ❤ missed you!

[@DashcamUKDrivers]

Never ever, ever, doubt just how fabulous and original and outstanding you both are. In 2023 I attempted suicide, and have struggled ever since, but having found you both, I have a reason to live, so, thank you x

[@soniasias6226]

You seem grateful for small things. That helps. Keep going.

[@thehighlandlife2023]

I am so pleased you have found a way forward ❤️

[@leebliss3622]

Hey, I’m so glad you’re still here. I had a similar experience, and learned to fall in love with the little things again, and realised that’s all that matters. ❤ proud of you ❤

[@jules3042]

Craig & Amy….thank you for sharing your lives with us on the internets. You both seem like genuinely wonderful people and I’m so happy that you both exist in this crazy world. Never stop ruling your own world :)

[@rosaliejordan3915]

Missouri USA. I have worked as a nurse for mental health 20+ years. Please remember, you can only do as much as you can and always take time out in the day to clear your mind and take a long walk, rather it be in nature or in Clustered. close your eyes let go of your feelings and just talk to yourself. Self-talk is normal. And it will help you clear you feeling and even yell. Just getting it off your chest will help you maintain stability. I believe Amy is a great partner and a wonderful listener. You are a wonderful couple, and strength to each other. I am so happy you guys got you keys. Now let the party begin. 🧨🎊

[@Isla_268]

I saw you guys in glencoe and I got so excited when I saw custard the bus knowing you guys there I would of loved to say hi but we were taking my brother back home ❤️ Hope to see you guys around! Good luck with the house!

[@jobethk588]

Why is life such a roller coaster?❤😊🎉❤

[@lorimontcalm9086]

Ah, man, you guys must be so frustrated, disappointed etc....but Scotland is beautiful. Fingers crossed for you that next week we see the house!! Hugs from 🇨🇦

[@Graygramma]

The best part of Sunday…Kinging-It!

[@LittleLillysTravels]

Couldn't agree more ❤

[@mott2945]

Absolutely

[@ginkodragon]

Custard is looking brand new after her facelift! Kudos to Gary! I like your, "food drawer"! When you get your keys ... i would like an in-depth tour and future plans for your new home! No wonder you decided to move to Scotland! It is beautiful! I've been missing Eamon and Bec, but you've got some of their excellent teas! Good to be thinking about them while sipping something warm and comforting!

[@victoriakatniptabby4600]

OMG Scotland is beautiful!!! glad you are keeping busy and still adventuring while you wait for the keys! it will be worth the wait.

[@reneebarnes2050]

I just LOVE your vids. Your cheeky humour and kind hearted view on life. You are both such beautiful people inside and out. I always get a chuckle when I watch your vids. Keep up the great content please!! The world needs more people like you . Congrats on the Scotland home purchase and I’m looking forward to seeing what you do with the place. Shade and sweet water from alberta Canada ❤❤❤❤❤

[@Skendall-dw9ec]

My wife and I love you two, you have the courage to live the life we wish could have have lived and through you we are.

[@thehighlandlife2023]

Aw I totally get the feeling! We moved over 600 miles away as a family of 6 from everyone we knew to the very far north of the Scottish Highlands and it felt huge but also exciting but that was 2 years ago now and we haven’t regretted it once!! You guys will love living here xxx

[@towallis3607]

So great to see you exploring your new ends. We bought our house, ‘a project’, in November and we can’t wait to live through the renovation with you. There are days that it’s the best thing in the world, and other days of ‘what have we done!?’. It’s an amazing adventure. Thanks for the awesome videos. You have been bringing us joy for many years. ❤

[@margoburns9085]

Aimee you are a culinary genius! What's the problem Craig? Lol... the beauty of Scotland never gets old. Fingers crossed for you! ❤

[@kirstenmc68]

Yes! A video of my fav people ❤

[@celinavanbelkom8002]

My daughter is a 'Lady of Glencoe' thanks to a owning a very small plot (big enough to stand on hehe). Lovely to see the beauty in the area

[@fairyrelaxation]

Love you guys,whatever you do and wherever you are ❤❤❤

[@tomeley1389]

Amazing to see you both back on the road again! There’s just one thing I have to mention as a plumber regarding the pipe fittings on the repair you made, the fittings need to be tightened! The push fit fittings are brilliant but I’ve seen these things fail so many times when not tightened up. They’ll hold for so long but they will inevitably fail, all they need is a quarter turn just hand tight. Hope this helps and prevents any future waterfalls! Love your videos! Keep being you and inspiring us all🤟🏼

[@ryanpacker16]

I was about to comment about the fittings too!

[@kingingit]

Haha noted n thanks mate - will let Craig know he won’t be getting employed anytime soon 😆

[@Kingkongkirk1234]

I came to the comments to see if someone had pointed that out haha

[@RicktheBeast]

Yaaay my favorite couple is back with a new video! Wow the landscape is gorgeous!❤

[@melissareid640]

Sweet Let's Get This- a bit bummed for you as far as the keys go but you always make the best of things and I love that because you know how to find joy and have fun! It will make your homecoming even sweeter!

[@sueprior9184]

Everything crossed for you. Hope you get the keys this week coming. Love to see Craig carry future wife over the threshold. Just love every one of your videos. I am always smiling and feel the happy vibes. xx

[@youtooaromatherapyyoga2991]

YAAAAY LADS!! So happy to see you xxx

[@emz_adventure]

You two just warm my soul. Isn't glencoe just beautiful. And the road to Glen etive (chefs kiss). Loved this ❤

[@janerussell3931]

thanks for posting this wonderful video. Much love from USA

[@tramacmeg8103]

I'm currently working my plans for our trip in September this year! Airline tickets are PURCHASED!!! Your map is of great help, go buy it folks!!! The A82 from Glasgow to Ft William is on the list!!!! All the best with the house! What a drag out it has been.

[@thehighlandlife2023]

Oh wow have a great time here in the beautiful Highlands! It’s a whole other world! 😍

[@renniedavis8698]

Just plain sweet. Your absolutely amazing. Nhugs from usa

[@JaneseCarstens]

My family always talks about having roots and wings so I really understand and love how you are moving to grow bigger wings. Much love on this journey!

[@joyarisko442]

you guys are fabulous and so so real - love you for that ❤️

[@mskq4409]

A garden... landscape... whatever your hearts desire, CONGRATULATIONS!!!

[@bearin29]

So excited for you guys. Don't worry, they'll come up with the keys. It's all going to go fine. The expectation is growing and the moment when you enter that first time as the homeowners will be that much sweeter, sweeter than you imagine. Worst case scenario, YOU'RE EXPERIENCING GLORIOUS SCOTLAND DURING YOUR WAIT!!!! It doesn't get any better than that!!! My husband and I left our hearts there, but we will see it again. Rest assured. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

[@AlexBC19]

I’m 2 minutes in and you’ve all ready got me in tears!!!! 35 year old bloke crying 😭

[@janetdiciacca9743]

You are not leaving behind all your memories you take them with you xx

[@heathershobe3694]

Scotland is stunning!! Hope all is well with getting the keys! The best is yet come, cheers🍻 Stay you✌🏼

[@desiinscotland]

I still remember the first time I saw a Haggis when I first moved to Scotland 8 years ago. ❤ They're shy creatures it's almost impossible to spot them, but there he was... On a hill near Loch Callater, looking majestic in his fluffy coat. Still one of my favourite memories. Welcome to Scotland guys 😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@coleengoodell7523]

Aimee needs to invest in a proper pair of hiking boots if she doesn't already have some. I found that they make all the difference between enjoying and enduring. Hope and pray you get your keys soon and the sellers are kind people who want to pass on positive energy as they themselves would hope to receive in the future. God's blessings to both of you. You are loved.

[@arlenesolis024]

❤❤❤❤ the lads are back!

[@nataliemercer8497]

I hope you both enjoyed your break!! ❤ We missed you!

[@annduffy1356]

So happy you are sharing the beauty of Scotland! Good luck getting your keys!

[@julieanneroberts4752]

Buying/moving house is exciting but 🫨 Our daughter, son in law and two kids under 3 finally moved into their new home on St David’s Day 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿❤️ after 7 and a half months of negotiations…they exchanged at 14.40pm on Thursday 29th Feb and completed and moved in by 14.30pm the next day 1st March!!!! They hadn’t even packed as were convinced it wouldn’t happen! Talk about manic 24hrs!!! 🫨 So proud of them though. Fingers crossed you’ll be in your new abode soon too.

[@MegaRetr]

So great to see you exploring your new ends!!!

[@Nln112]

I’ve missed you guys! You managed to make me lol several times and smile ear to ear. I hope you’re close to getting your keys to the house, but if not you have more time to explore your beautiful surroundings.

[@susanreay7061]

Lovely to see you guys, your infectious joy has been missed. Looking forward to your Scottish adventure.😊

[@TakeAPeakAtThis]

It looks absolutely incredible in your new home country! A shame about the keys but looks like you’re filling your time the Kinging-It way! Brilliant video as always!

[@lauraheyman2011]

Oh, happy day! I'm so happy to see you two again ❤

[@candacegreen1163]

Loving the rumage through the fridge and what you bring out to eat while you wait for the the keys to your dream home.👍🙏🏻🌻

[@kelbyfrazier6849]

I'm affirming it for y'all. You will get your keys to your home 🏡🏡🏡 So excited for y'all. Love y'all so much! 🎉🩷🤩🏡

[@RobbieLValentine]

YAAAS! Missed you guys! Been watching all your old videos in anticipation for this! x

Missed you guys! 😍😍

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

🤞🤞🤞you have your Keys. You waited long enough .The scenery just brings home vibes to me do miss it , such a beautiful area been many a time on family holidays . Have a Good week 🥰

[@chrisdaniel1339]

Nobody has heard a peep from Eamon & Bec in three months.... crickets. Beautiful countryside in Scotland, it is on my list of places to visit.

[@jenh9252]

Eamon & Bec will be back when they want money! They have shown clear disdain for their followers!!

[@christip20]

The back side of the front door! Actually, I was thinking about the first night, but I figure that’s going to be “Custard” until it’s comfortable enough for full time, so I’ll just settle for seeing the happiness when you finally get those Keys! The scenery around there is phenomenal, it’s fitting for you guy’s who have visited so many places!!🍀

[@smavtmb2196]

No Keys? That's a Bummer. Cold plunges seem like torture but might try it one day. I can't wait to see what you do with your new home. Aimee you are ridiculously adorable. That AG1 Ad was hilarious.

[@lisarichards3853]

You 2 ....your videos make me laugh, smile, and today, dream. Thank you for such a a nice break in my day. ❤❤🎉🎉

[@miriamkaulbarsch]

I love that you said you move to a new country because yes Scotland is its own thing! And Glencoe is so breathtaking - I will always remember it, the most beautiful landscape!

[@tamara8908]

Your videos are top notch. Fantastic content, camera views and editing. Custard looks so cozy. Living the life!

[@nataliemercer8497]

So excited!!!

[@Bel-ej9go]

Stunning. I’ll be taking my dog on a Scottish road trip in May… can’t wait.

[@sandrawhite3188]

Moving house is soooo stressful. Ours was delayed by 3 months from first moving date but it'll b so worth it xxx

[@sth.777]

Haggis definitely need a sanctuary. Did you know that they actually have shorter legs on one side (left if male, right if female) to help them run around the Scottish hills? Having opposing shorter legs, they can meet dates faster... Now ya know.

[@karenrussell9672]

Loved the episode , thank you for showing use more of Scotland. Great that you have the keys. Hope you are using an architect to help you.

[@nancytondag1271]

You two are a joy to watch. Hope you get your house keys soon.

[@calmandcollected6021]

I hope you receive your keys soon. I can’t wait to see what you do with your home.

[@gailegormley5744]

Have gotten Eamon & Bec’s tea and really like it!!

[@perla1133]

I missed you both sooooo much!!! I'm so glad y'all are back and I pray you get those keys ASAP 😊💜💙

[@diannenickson8518]

In Canada when there is a closing date, the keys are to be turned over to the lawyer. If the seller failed to do that, they can have to pay the buyer for the inconveniences ie hotel rooms etc for why they are not turning the keys over. I hope you are being compensated for the delay.

[@katealison6087]

I noticed your comment because I've got a friend in the States who has her real estate license. She is blown away by the chaotic and stressful house selling/buying process in the UK. It really is ridiculous and you're at the whim of either party at any moment. It's so incredibly stressful. I know in the States everything's laid out with set mutual deadlines and once you put in an offer you have to proceed otherwise there's financial penalty. The only time that happens in the UK is when you exchange contracts, which happens right at the very end typically. I'm just about to buy a property in Scotland and I'm grateful that in theory the buying process there is 6-8 weeks, rather than the three to four months in England. But having watched this I think we may potentially find ourselves renting somewhere in between! It's all worth it though as Scotland is so beautiful. Canada as well!

[@paigepooler9036]

I mean, it’s like over 300k of us waiting for those damn keys!! 😂 I’m excited for you -settling into your new HOME! can’t wait to see what you do with it!

[@Dempseyniamh]

You guys are my favourite you tubers. I’m Irish so I find you guys very relatable and also hilarious. Just the best ❤❤🎉

[@sherylmerritt2650]

You never fail to make me smile.

[@beverlyscheidt583]

Ya all put a big smile on my face always waiting in anticipation for the next video

[@LJ-pp9wj]

Everything good is worth waiting for. I’m sorry cause it’s hard but patience is a virtue. Easy for me to say,right? I believe in you two. Just please take this time and embrace each other. Renovation will take a toll on your relationship so stay strong.

[@ynys_mon6928]

Glad you mentioned Eamon and Bec. I’ve been concerned we haven’t heard from them for a while (I only do KZbin and not other social media). Hope they are okay.

[@relocatetoEUROPE]

i absolutely love Scotland and have done many epic trips there. I live in Italy where I run my channel from , wishing you all the best. for your scottage

[@TheAmber52]

Lovely catching up with the two of you great video, I love Scotland and we are coming up in May to travel the West coast this time. Good luck with getting your keys to your Scottish home ❤

[@nervousheadache]

Don’t. Go to Wales instead, it’s better.

[@thehighlandlife2023]

Have a wonderful time up here! It’s an amazing place and May is a good time to travel up here xxx

[@SabrinaJoshua]

Ah hope you get your keys soon, but until then keep having the best adventures in custard. Thanks for the update 😻✨💖

[@sueKay]

Please visit Loch Lomond and the Trossachs! There's so much cool stuff here and I'm happy to give recommendations. I live a few hundred yards from the A82...shame I can't drive! Good luck with seeing a Pine Marten, I've still never seen one! We call those tattie scones, not potato cakes, and they're tastiest when they're cooked completely immersed in oil (then blotted, so you can pretend you're being healthy). Hope you get the keys to the house soon, can't wait to see what you have planned!!

[@judivowell5748]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WATCHING YOU TWO!!! You make me smile every week. Thank you ❤

[@dianeconnors6263]

Scotland is so beautiful. But I can't wait until you get into the house ❤😇🤞

[@katieelliott391]

We've got the Google Map, we've got a rough plan to go up to the Orkney Islands and we're going this year! Also, the husband is a Joiner if you need any jobs doing on our way past 😆 Can't wait! Excited for your to get the keys... we're 4 years into our renovation doing most from scratch ourselves and I would also say, don't start too many projects at one time and get used to living in the chaos... when you look back at progress pics you will be amazed 😊 I want to see a proper tour first and hear about the plans 🤩Love you both!

[@thehighlandlife2023]

Oh have a wonderful trip! I haven’t made it over to Orkney yet but heard it’s lovely. Have a safe trip! And love your advice about the Reno!

With my Scottish heritage I had the dream and privilege to visit a few years back. I vouch for your words, so beautiful, yes, visited Glencoe too.... magical all... Edinburgh with it's atmosphere, to die for, I understand how you feel and why you've fallen in love. I hope you get the keys soon!!!

[@stephaniecallewaert6510]
