Fantastic service
Stephen was really helpful from our first meeting, very knowledgeable, reassuring and clearly explained our options and the processes. His relaxed and straightforward style was easy to relate to.
His availability, patience, great communication and positive approach were super helpful and made the selling of our house easier and smoother.
The video and photos used for the sale were of a very high quality.
All round a fantastic service we wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

good advice & support
Hamish Home (Gary was our agent - friendly & great communication) gave us good advice on the current market conditions. They dealt with all the viewings for us but kept us informed of planned viewings. They were supportive when we did get an offer & discussed pros/cons of said offer.

We initially made contact with Hamish…
We initially made contact with Hamish Homes because of word of mouth from previous clients and observing that most of the sold properties were advertised by Hamish Homes.
From our first conversation with Stephen Area Manager we were very much put at ease and felt excited and confident in what was offered by Hamish Homes.
From start of our conversation the cottage was on the market within 2 weeks everything from survey. Valuation and solicitor was organised for us by Stephen.
Viewing was undertaken by Stephen himself and by the first weekend we had received offers . It was not as stressful as we had anticipated all thanks to Stephen Murray Jnr.
They come highly recommend by us
Thank You Hamish Homes.

Really great experience with Kelly
Really great experience with Kelly, from start to finish. She was well organised when arranging a viewing, something I couldn't say of all competitors, and friendly and professional during the viewing. Kelly then offered support and guidance throughout the process of buying, often outside of normal working hours. As nervous first time buyers, we really appreciated this.

Hamish get the job done!
Hamish get the job done!
I was dealing with Kelly who made big promises during our first phone call. She told me she would have a photographer and surveyor around within two days and the house would be on the market within the week. I must admit I was sceptical. Two days later the house had been surveyed and photographed and two days after that, it was on the website for sale. Kelly keeps her promises! She handled the viewings, and communication throughout was excellent.
It’s eight weeks later & I have handed the keys over to the new owners.
I can’t thank Kelly and the company enough for making this such an easy process & getting the job done.

Fantastic Service
From the moment we spoke to James about selling our house we were confident he would lead us through the process successfully. He certainly did that and he arranged viewings promptly and we received a couple of offers very quickly. From start to finish took less than four months and so we were delighted. Very professional but equally friendly at all times, easy to get hold of at anytime and always phoned when he arranged to. Couldn’t have had a better level of service and we would highly recommend Hamish for selling or buying a property. Definitely offer a five star service.

See Google Review for proof of utter unprofessionalism
This would be by far too long a review to explain in full so here are the highlights
1. Stephen first tried to get my house on the market with HH when I was viewing another house he was listing. He had no intention of trying to sell me the house I was viewing
2. He blatantly told me he could get a HR with a higher value on it than the one I had already paid for
3. He made me an offer that if he didn't sell my house for more than £500k I wouldn't have to pay a penny
4. He marked my house under offer and removed from the market when the potential buyer had not even listed their house
5. Various "excuses/reasons/blaming of the buyer" why their house wasn't going under offer
6. Constant storytelling that moving dates would be in place.
7. Eventually the buyer pulled out direct to their solicitor (not communicating to HH - which probably also speaks for itself)
8. New listing - new stories
9. After roughly 9 months, I decided to go back to the original agent I had planned to use. The ones that tailor make moving
10. When communicating that to Stephen, tone of messages changed.
11. As I had not signed a contract and Stephen had said to me, there would be nothing to pay, if he didn't sell my house for over £500k I did not pay the invoice they were charging me.
12. Various rude and threating messages received, his nose was obviously out of place as I'd managed to get another agent to list without him "releasing the HR"
13. He refused to remove their listing from Rightmove and reduced the price on my listing without my consent. I had to speak to their legal team, prove I owned the house and confirm I did not authorise HH to have it listed
14. After TMM sold my property. HH marked on Rightmove that they sold the property, fudging their sales figures
15. I was then forced to pay the invoice after he lodged a claim with the court. Something which I very strongly wanted to fight, but was not able due to potential impact on my job in financial services
The long and short is, if it sounds too good to be true and it was told to you by Hamish Homes, it definitely is!!
I would never use their services to sell a house again and I definitely wouldn't view one being listed by them either
