How should I compare estate agents covering Polwarth?

Ask each for recent evidence in Polwarth itself rather than Edinburgh as a whole: how many they sold, what they achieved against the Home Report figure, and how long it took. Then compare the fee, the marketing included and whether they are a solicitor estate agent handling the conveyancing too.

Does Lothian Property sell my Polwarth home?

Choosing an estate agent in Polwarth

Which estate agent should I use in Polwarth?

Polwarth covers the EH11 postcode district of Edinburgh. Canal-side tenements and colonies between Merchiston and Fountainbridge. Lothian Property publishes independent selling information for this area, and publishes selling prices only once they are confirmed against ESPC and Registers of Scotland data.

What to ask before you instruct anyone in Polwarth

Ask for the last five properties the agent sold in Polwarth itself, what they were marketed at and what they achieved. Ask who will conduct your viewings, and whether that is the person standing in your living room. Ask what the fee covers and what is billed separately — photography, floor plans, portal listing, brochure.

In Scotland you should also ask how they intend to handle a closing date, and how they will advise you on more than the headline figure: date of entry, conditions and the buyer's own chain all change what an offer is actually worth.

Lothian Property is not an estate agency and does not compete for your instruction. If you want one, we can introduce you to independent professionals who work in this area — you choose whether to proceed.
