Living abroad necessitates us having a fully managed service for our house with Scott Fraser, we are therefore reliant on the relationship we have with our property manager to keep us updated and to act on our behalf as & when the need arises. For the past year or so, we have had the good fortune to have Simon Butt as our property manager. During this time Simon has displayed professional, courteous, knowledgeable and very pro-active attributes. We had the misfortune to have issues with a tenant who instigated an early termination that eventually had to go through arbitration. Simon provided us with excellent support during the whole process & provided a wealth of documented evidence to the arbitrators to backup our case, resulting in the positive outcome of our claim. I have exchanged e-mail messages & spoken on the telephone with Simon numerous times since he became our property manager. He is equally adept at written & verbal communication. His whole persona displays a high level of empathy & genuine willingness to help, he has a way of making any issue seem manageable and truly has gone that "extra mile" to ensure that we are have been totally happy with & have fully understood the information he has provided. Having Simon as our property manager has given us a trusted, professional & friendly point of contact for all rental matters regarding our property & tenants. In the 14 years that we have been landlords, we have dealt with numerous estate agents & property managers, I have never before felt as comfortable with or experienced the level of support & commitment that we receive from Simon. Thank you Simon for everything you have done & continue to do.

Frequently Asked Questions

During an in-person valuation, an agent will visit your property. They will look in each room as well as outside, before giving you their assessment of how much they think you could sell or let for. They can also offer advice on whether there’s anything you could do to increase your property’s estimated rental or sales value.

We like to be completely transparent - you'll never be left wondering how or why we've valued your property at a certain price. In order to work out the fair value of your property, we consider several factors, including:

  • The type of property you have (detached, semi-detached, terraced, flat)
  • Current demand in the area
  • The general condition of the property
  • Your property's location, area demographic, and transport links
  • If letting, the demographic your property will attract (e.g. families, professionals, students)
  • If selling, specifics of the property such as size of garden, available parking, whether it’s freehold or leasehold

Most agents, including scottfraser, carry out valuations for free. Always use a trusted, local agent to provide you with a valuation. Be mindful that some agents may give a high valuation of your home so that you choose to sell or let with them. However, if the sales or rental price is unrealistic, your property will be on the market longer than necessary. This will put buyers or tenants off, and may mean you actually achieve less than you could have if it was priced correctly initially.

While it is better if the owner can be present during a valuation, it’s not essential. After visiting the property, the valuer may have some questions to ask, so be ready to provide as much information as you can.

scottfraser have been successfully letting and selling properties for over 40 years. We are passionate about property, and our staff know the local areas we operate in like no one else. Whether you’re selling or letting a property, you can be assured our experts will not only value your property accurately but also be transparent with you as to how they came to that figure.
