    2. Does a constituting landlord satisfy the conditions to be an owner-occupier crofter?

    Does a constituting landlord satisfy the conditions to be an owner-occupier crofter?

    Karen Macrae | 12 May 2025

    No, the constituting landlord does not fall within the definition of owner-occupier crofter set out at Section 19B(3). A person who purchases the croft from the constituting landlord (or is such a purchaser’s successor in title) would qualify providing the owner-occupier crofter conditions set out at Section 19B(2)and 19B(4) are met.
