Selling your Property

  • paragraph

    "Selling our family home was an emotional journey, but Simpson & Marwick made the process not only seamless but genuinely comforting. From the moment we met their team, we felt listened to and understood. They didn't just see our property as a house to sell-they saw it as the place where we built memories. Their attention to detail, exceptional communication, and personal touch made all the difference. In the end, they secured a sale far beyond our expectations, but more than that, they gave us peace of mind. We couldn't have asked for a better partner in this process." Catriona and David, Clients, via Google Reviews

Buying a Property

    Purchasing Your Next Property with Us

    At Simpson & Marwick, we specialise in guiding clients through the distinctive Scottish property market. Whether you're a first-time buyer, searching for a second home, or seeking a profitable investment, our comprehensive, personalised service gives you the confidence to purchase with ease.

    Our deep knowledge of Scotland's legal framework and market dynamics ensures a smooth, stress-free journey from search to settlement. We're with you at every step-protecting your interests, clarifying the process, and helping you make informed decisions.

  • paragraph

    Why Work with Us in the Scottish Property Market?

    Scotland's property market operates under its own unique set of rules and procedures, which differ significantly from other parts of the UK. Understanding these intricacies is essential to securing the right property, at the right price, with minimal hassle.

  • paragraph

    'Offers Over' Pricing

    In Scotland, properties are frequently listed on an 'offers over' basis. This can be confusing for those unfamiliar with the approach. Our team helps you:

    · Interpret guide prices

    · Understand market expectations

    · Submit strategic, competitive offers

    So you're always positioned for success.

  • paragraph

    The 'Closing Date' System

    Scotland's closing date process involves submitting offers by a specified deadline, often in a sealed-bid format. This can introduce pressure and uncertainty.

    We provide:

    · Clear advice on offer strategy

    · Market insight to assess competition

    · Support to make confident decisions under tight timelines

  • paragraph

    Key Legal Differences

    Scottish property law differs substantially from that of England and Wales. One of the key features is the conclusion of missives-a legally binding stage that happens earlier in the process than buyers may expect.

    We work in tandem with expert solicitors to:

    · Guide you from initial offer to concluded missives

    · Ensure all legal documentation is handled swiftly and correctly

    · Give you peace of mind at every stage

    Purchasing in Scotland doesn't need to be complicated. With Simpson & Marwick at your side, you gain clarity, confidence, and exceptional service throughout your property journey.

      above all reasonable expectations
      "I'm so glad we choose Simpson & Marwick to sell our beloved family home. The team gave excellent and prompt advice through what turned into rather a complex sale. Their level of professionalism and above all kindness and care when the going got tough was above all reasonable expectations. The result of their hard work was a successful sale at a very good price. I cannot recommend them highly enough. MW Dec 21

    • Seller Testimonial

      I have already recommended them
      I was about to instruct another firm when two friends strongly recommended I talk to Simpson & Marwick. From the first meeting to conclusion of missives both on my flat and the one I was buying, the service from the in-house team too  has been simply excellent. It helps that Simpson & Marwick are part of ESPC if you're buying and selling in Scotland. I have already recommended them to two friends about to embark on property transactions. PG

    • Seller Testimonial

      All of our early impressions of Simpson & Marwick gave us confidence that it would be the right choice for marketing and selling our property.

Many thanks SB
