    Excellent service

    I would definitely recommend Rettie for buying or selling property. We dealt with Fraser and Hugh who were both really helpful and friendly.
    Fraser made the process of selling our property so easy and stress free and was always there to answer any questions..

    Very satisfied

    Generally it was a quality service: photos, survey, viewings were all conducted as you would wish. When our sale became complicated thanks to a fraudulent 'buyer', Rettie acted effectively to contain that problem, advised us well on actions and had a second (genuine) buyer within 2 weeks. Undoubtedly good fortune played its part, but their systems also made it happen. Subsequently we found Rettie a good ally especially at points in the conveyancing when solicitors needed to be nudged or arms length conversations were needed with the buyer.
