Hello Anjiyer,

I know the area well and given the postcode of your husbands work, then you definately dont want to be south or west of the city.

Aberdeen is in the dark ages. There is only 1 major road going south/north called Anderson Drive and at busy times its a nightmare, there is no ringroad option and Aberdonians drive like the French (nae discipline at all).

The Bridge of Don has its own large residential area with good infrastructure/links/schools etc (its even got a large Tescos).

For a nicer quality of living look North and Northwest avoiding Anderson drive, try Ellon, Oldmeldrum, Kemnay, Inverurie a 40 minute trip can take you as far north as Peterhead and some lovely villages inland.

One of the biggest letting agents in the area is the Aberdeen Solicitors property centre at aspc. co.uk clearly leases etc are watertight.

I should imagine your husband employer will have a connection with an agent/solicitor with his own book.
