I managed to sell my property with the help of Elaine. From the very beginning, Elaine was the perfect blend of kindness and professionalism, which made what could have been a very stressful process feel easy and manageable. She truly went above and beyond to ensure I felt supported every step of the way. Her communication was absolutely perfect. She consistently kept all parties informed, ensuring there were no delays or surprises. It was incredibly reassuring to know that we were always updated and understood what was happening next. Beyond her professional expertise, Elaine is highly approachable and easy to talk to. She was always available to answer our questions, no matter how small, and we never hesitated to reach out. I highly recommend Elaine to anyone looking for a property agent who is not only exceptionally skilled but also genuinely cares about her clients. Thank you, Elaine!

Tenant FAQ

This depends on your personal circumstances. We begin marketing properties two to three months before they're available, although student accommodation can be offered up to nine months in advance. We recommend giving yourself as much time as possible to find the perfect property. If you're currently renting, check your contractual notice period with your current landlord.

scottfraser usually offers initial fixed-term tenancies of between 6 and 24 months. Some tenancies can be drawn up for as little as 3 months or as long as 36 months. Speak to our lettings team to find out more.

Only with the written consent of the landlord. In blocks of flats, the head Lease usually prohibits the keeping of pets. The landlord may also wish to impose extra restrictions on the tenancy, like a compulsory carpet cleaning at the end of the tenancy.
