Aberdeen Torry residents decline council's voluntary home purchase, demanding no deductions in property valuations for repair costs.

Residents in Aberdeen’s Torry area, affected by hazardous reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (Raac), have declined to engage with Aberdeen City Council's voluntary home purchase scheme. They demand assurance that repair costs will not be deducted from property valuations, fearing negative equity. The council plans to acquire and demolish the affected homes, but homeowners are concerned about the financial implications and potential exclusion from the property market.
