Testimonials

I want to say how very much I appreciated your excellent service during my purchase - you did everything possible to make the transaction as smooth and trouble-free as possible. Even when there was nothing to report because of the delay in my sale and the complications in the chain, you very kindly contacted me to see how all was progressing and gave me a great deal of support during such as stressful time. I am so grateful to you and have been singing the praises of Rettie to all my friends! Bren
Rettie were engaged by Boralex after a competitive process to market a large hill farm and ancillary properties in West Lothian during 2018. The sales particulars were well thought out and presented professionally with excellent photographs. Advice received all the way through the marketing process from both Nick Ainscough and Chris Hall for what was a complicated sale was always to the point and pertinent, culminating in a successful tender and conveyance of the property. B Straker-Nesbit, Boralex (Scotland) LP
Chris and his colleagues have consistently provided me with practical and sensible advice over the past three and a half years in connection with the progressive disposal of Glassingall Estate, by Dunblane. Planning and development opportunities have been maximised and sales structured to capture a wide range of buyers. I have no hesitation in recommending their services to others with similar properties to my own. A H Readman, Glassingall Estate
“Mary and Emma at Rettie were an absolute delight to deal with as buyers of our new fabulous family home in Newcastle. They were always hugely helpful in answering queries we had and relaying requests to the sellers with an approach that was always very open and appreciated I'm sure by the sellers as well. We were kept fully informed of all developments of the sale and they helped ease worries when there were issues with our sale at the other end of the country that they were powerless to influence!" A Stanton & M Andrews
Chris Hall and his team were initially commissioned to look at the overall Estate and produce advice to ‘shrink’ the Estate in a logical and timely manner whilst factoring considerations such as timing, tax, planning, development opportunities, and retention of a core area into their advices. Their advice was carefully considered, well researched, and well informed. A number of sales, many of them completed successfully on a private basis, were subsequently undertaken within a fairly short time window and I am delighted with the overall outcome. MB
