Annie Flint

Presenter

Annie Flint became interested in tenement management when she had some interesting experiences during communal block repairs. She subsequently wrote "The Tenement Handbook" with her co-author John Gilbert. After many further adventures in all things tenemental, and when the Tenement Handbook became sadly dated, Annie and John set up the website www.underoneroof.scot that took the Handbook online. Under One Roof has been widely praised, even being mentioned favourably in the Scottish Parliament.
Ross Mackay

Presenter

Ross is one of Scotland's leading property solicitors and is a partner with Coulters Property in Edinburgh. He is the author of many of the clauses used in the contracts for the sale and purchase of properties so if you've ever read your contract of sale for the flat you rent, there is a good chance you have read some of his words. Ross is also a regular speaker at law seminars and has chaired a number of Law Society Groups dealing with property law.
