Client Testimonials

Thanks for your help so far, one of the reasons we’ve gone for this property is because you’ve been so much more professional than any of the other letting agents we’ve seen, which has been a few.

Thank you again for helping with finding a tenant- the Rettie & Co team always make the process a smooth one.

I want to take this opportunity to express my delight in dealing with yourself, as you made the process from viewing to agreeing on the lease run extremely smooth with excellent communication from your side. We will definitely pop open the champagne tonight …

We had very good service from Rettie, both in relation to the rental and sale of [our property].

"We want to take this opportunity to thank you for helping us in getting what we hope will become our family home for many years to come. It's great to come across someone as honest and trustworthy as your good self. Thank you Maitland [Walker]."

We have found the Rettie & Co team to be very focused on achieving sales and to have worked effectively and professionally in partnership with our own team. We have been delighted with the increased sales rates achieved at Pavilion as a result of the referral service.

The New Homes team have provided a consistently high level of service to PARC over the 4 years we have worked together. The on site sales team have continued to achieve sales throughout a challenging market and the expert marketing support and advice provided has been key to the success of the sales campaign.

This was the first time we'd rented, coupled with the complication of linking it with a house sale, and move from Lincolnshire. While looking for a property we spoke with most rental agents in the Borders. Camilla at Rettie & Co proved to be the most helpful, efficient and professional in explaining, and carrying out the process. She was also supportive both before and after the move. I have no hesitation in recommending Rettie & Co as a first 'port of call' to anyone.

I just wanted to thank you for your services in selling 18 Dalrymple Crescent recently. My sister and I were delighted with achieving the sale so quickly and efficiently and I think that is due to the very professional and knowledgeable service your firm provided (together with our being fortunate in finding an interested purchaser). Many thanks indeed for your service.

You have more than met my expectations from beginning to end of the process.   I have found you to be totally professional and reliable, friendly, extremely generous with your time. You have always kept me fully in the picture and responded promptly to phone calls and e-mails.  You have been willing to give your advice and support in all areas relating to the sale, and provided me with specialist marketing reports to aid my negotiations with the District Valuer… I would have no hesitation in recommending Rettie & Co to anyone looking to buy or sell property in Southern Scotland.

The Rettie & Co. broker team have proven to be an effective support to the in house Muir Homes sales team in a challenging market. Utilising the reach of the Rettie & Co website and buyer database, the broker team have been successful in helping drive additional active buyers to our developments. We have been impressed with the team’s proactive approach and their ability to deliver sales in tough market conditions.

Rettie & Co’s professional and informed approach, delivered in a relaxed and personable way, helped us to choose the right property. We were given first class service throughout, with options to suit our needs and the advice and suggestions backed up by a comprehensive understanding of the market provided proved important in securing us the best deal.

I would like to express our thanks, for all your help, in pointing us in the right direction for our needs, and your expert assistance regarding developers, location, whilst also taking into account our budget. Also giving us consistent, helpful, quality service with a fast response to our queries . A good estate agent is always worth recommending and I would have no hesitation in recommending the services of Rettie & Co.

We were both very impressed with your straightforward and open approach and we have to say it provided a positive impression of Rettie & Co.

Rettie & Co demonstrated very thorough knowledge of both the local and wider market to give a rounded perspective of the options and not just pushing their assigned property. They produced a balanced view of the properties in their portfolio, taking account of the clients wants and advising appropriate properties throughout Edinburgh. They were efficient, objective on the details and friendly and speedy in executing the details.

The total professionalism and genuine care you took with our purchase at Strathearn Terrace in Crieff was truly outstanding!

I would like to contribute a few words in recognition of your stellar achievement in selling 3 and 3a Hillside Crescent.  I was confronted by the potential pitfalls of selling two adjoining properties simultaneously to two different sets of buyers in a challenging market whilst being based abroad myself throughout.  A veritable juggling act indeed! Rettie & Co’s highly professional sales team however carried out the operation successfully by ‘remote control’ through a combination of setting just the right price level, the optimal timing of the stages of the sales process and an application of their superior negotiating skills, and by a quiet, discreet but steely determination to achieve the desired result.

As you know, after a long search and with your help, we have been successful in obtaining a flat in the Pavilion, Bangholm Terrace, Edinburgh.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the brilliant service we have received. This has proved to be especially important as we were undecided as to the type of property we wanted and also the fact that we were buying in Edinburgh and living in London, so didn't have much local knowledge.

Thank you for your patience (which I am sure must have been tested at times) and also for the professionalism and good humour you showed at all times. I would not hesitate to recommend Rettie & Co., and especially yourself (Gavin Smith), to anyone wishing to buy a property.

From the outset, it was apparent that the Rettie & Co team were well ahead of their competition in the way they dealt professionally and promptly with our queries and issues.  The fact that we were living on the other side of the globe (Australia) was not a problem for them.  After selecting numerous properties to view, we flew to Edinburgh to investigate further, with a view to purchasing. Rettie  & Co made our decision easy.  They had already identified our particular requirements and presented us with a range of properties from their extensive portfolio that each matched perfectly with our needs.  The advice provided to us was unbiased and of immense assistance, as we were unfamiliar with the particulars of the local market and its best investment and amenity opportunities. The property we acquired has exceeded our expectations in so many ways, and we are extremely grateful to Rettie & Co for their assistance, courtesy and professionalism.  Without a shadow of doubt we would recommend their services to anyone seeking to find their perfect property.

Thank you. It was gratifying to be treated professionally and courteously at all times by you and by a letting agency of your calibre.

I have instructed Rettie & Co’s Land & Development Team to act on my behalf on a number of development projects over the years. I have favoured their proactive approach to finding buyers, often without the property being on the open market.

Rettie and Co’s contacts and knowledge of the residential market place has proved to be invaluable all the way through the development process from the concept / planning stages through to disposal of the end product – with an emphasis on deliverability for best value.

My family and I have been using Rettie & Co for many years to buy, sell and let properties, and I have always found them to be extremely professional and helpful at all times. I bought a property through their Sales Department and the Lettings Department then secured me a long-term corporate let for it. The process was very straightforward and I would have no hesitation in recommending Rettie & Co as a first port of call to anyone.

I would like to extend my thanks to Rettie & Co as a whole who I have found to be one of the more professional and efficient letting agents in Edinburgh. Rettie & Co demonstrated what strong commitments they have to customer service which is not always found in letting agents. Without a doubt I would highly recommend Rettie & Co to others having found this to be an extremely positive experience overall.

Rettie & Co has a wealth of experience, combined with comprehensive market intelligence. They provide excellent advice and support when dealing with our site disposals or when introducing potential acquisitions. Most importantly, the Land & Development team have impressed me with their ability to think laterally, and to create opportunities, in very difficult market conditions.
