What Has Helped Make People Sell Up In Order To Buy Property In The Highlands And Islands?

Sadly, the Twin Towers, the ensuing War on Terrorism  and 7/7 has prompted many people in London and elsewhere to worry about their own safety.

As a consequence of theserecent tragic events, many are questioning the wisdom of working in skyscrapers when the technology is available to do so from home. Obviously, this is not an option for everyone, or, for that matter, one that appeals. However, there is little doubt the growth of remote working will only accelerate in the years to come as increasing numbers become disillusioned with urban living, crime and pollution.

By extension, the argument is that if you do not wish to spend two to four hours per day travelling to and from work, so long as the telecommunications infrastructure is available your home can be anywhere. With robust digital telecommunications, the Highlands and Islands are well placed to see inward migration in the years to come.
