“TIL there are over 1,000 homes in Edinburgh, Scotland that nobody has lived in for over 10 years. The most common reason is a reclusive homeowner passing away and nobody realizing they’ve inherited the property.”

Does council tax not identify this?
If the council tax is getting paid and the property is getting maintained it’s no one’s business but the property owner what they do with their private property. The council attempts to contact those whose council tax balances get high over the years. Respect of private property rights is the cornerstone of a civilized democracy. Only brutish societies bilk home owners out of their title.
Yeah but there’s that dutchy law says anything not claimed is the kings so that’s ok.👍
Scottish men will literally take their homes to the grave with them 😄
