Relationships that last

An absolute pleasure to deal with the team at Hawick. From our initial request and meeting Lauren at Valuation stage, to instruction was a smooth professional service. Gavin was incredibly helpful throughout the viewing process to offer and subsequent ‘Deal Agreement’. I really cannot recommend this team enough, to the point I would wonder why anyone would not want to use an agent that gets the process so right! The additional contractors were polite and efficient, the arrangements seamless. Moving onto the conveyancing process with Lesley McCredie, who has worked tirelessly to get our sale through quickly and with such attention to detail, she is a superstar. As an ex-agent of 20 years I know the pitfalls of not choosing the right agent and how wrong things can be, this team have got it down to a fine art. I really would not hesitate to use them again.

When we chose to market our house through Cullen Kilshaw the whole process was completed in a friendly, efficient and professional way. All the staff we dealt with were great and the sale went through very speedily. We used their legal services too, dealing with Bruce, and can highly recommend them.

All in all it was a pleasurable experience, thank you so much.

Hannah, good to see you today to thank you in person but I now want to put my thank you in writing. Your efficient and personable professional approach has been greatly appreciated, especially in re-assuring me through some of the nicer points of Scottish conveyancing.

I was particularly pleased that your efforts on behalf of my wife and I led to an early conclusion of the missives and, thus, certainty that the transfer of title would go through.
