    First Class Property Promotion

    The promotion of the property was supervised by two Rettie managers who provided a weekly status on viewing numbers and the level of interest generated. At least one of these managers could be contacted during office hours and detail provided on the steps taken to further promote where necessary.

    Can’t recommend highly enough

    Right from the start everyone we dealt with at Rettie was absolutely fantastic. Friendly, professional and always available. We had a tricky situation at the end of selling and they went above and beyond to help. We really can’t recommend their services enough. Alex Vine And Kate Purdie especially were wonderful to deal with.

    Great Experience with Edinburgh Sales

    We recently sold our property through Rettie and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. The whole team was professional, supportive, and efficient throughout the process. Sarah has been fantastic and went above and beyond in the final stages - the dedication and persistence in liaising with the buyer helped get everything over the line smoothly. We’re incredibly grateful for their efforts and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rettie to anyone looking to sell.

    A professiona and personal service

    Very efficient from start to finish.

    Very efficient from start to finish.
    From initial visit by Max and then dealing with Maz it all went very smoothly, with regular updates and an idea of those who viewed and their impressions and potential interest in the flat. Not Rettie's error but the only hiccup was the photographer turning up sooner than was planned meaning they missed some extra props I wanted in the photos and no aerial shots as anticipated. But some were added from a previous property marketing. But marketing of the proeprty got underway very quickly.
    Happy to receommend

    Knowledgeable, professional and communicative

    From the outset Gavin and Maria came across as professional, experienced and knowledgeable. Communication was excellent throughout the marketing and selling process; Maria went above and beyond to make sure I was kept updated at all times. Highly recommended.

    Highly recommend Rettie

    I had been setting my property through Rettie for the past 15 years and decided to sell when the tenants were leaving around Christmas last. At every turn the staff there were so helpful in every way throughout the time it was rented and from the time I decided to sell the property. As I live in Ireland and not accustomed to the routine in Edinburgh for selling a property, the staff there were so informative at every turn in the whole process
    I couldn’t recommend them enough.

    The service was very professional yet approachable. They make you feel important even. With a lower value property.
    They keep you in touch rather that you having to ask for information on the sale of your property.
    It was reassuring to know we were in good hands. Even when out of the country.

    Proactive, professional and a whole team approach.

    We chose Rettie to sell our flat largely based on their success with properties in our immediate neighbourhood. The Edinburgh residential sales team runs a smooth and professional operation under the watchful eye of Max Mills. We were particularly fortunate in being assigned Fraser Wardhaugh to handle our sale. His proactive approach, combined with a calm demeanor and the ability to leverage excellent relationships with all the parties concerned with our sale, was fundamental to getting the sale over the line with our sanity in place! This was particularly impressive given his move to the Melrose office mid way through proceedings. A special shout out too for Kate Purdie who was instrumental in getting people through the door to view.

    Really worked hard to get a sale

    Really worked hard to sell the flat, despite a hopelessly over-optimistic Home Report valuation. Excellent communication. Good sales brochure promoting the positive aspects of the property.

    Rettie provided an excellent service from start to finish and expertly navigated both sides to close out a deal which all sides were happy with.
