Clan Gordon, The Edinburgh letting agent
Clan Gordon is founded on our values and principles. Many companies start out promising a better service and more personal attention. This often doesn't last as the companies grow and they lose touch with their clients' objectives.
As we grow, we are determined to retain our personal touch and stick to our principles. So we decided to do an annual survey to find out if our clients were happy and ask for recommendations for improvements. We are the first letting agency in Edinburgh to do this and publish all the results.
100% of landlords who responded said they would recommend Clan Gordon to their friends in Edinburgh. Letting agents often have to take a tough line with some tenants over deposit deductions, so it was great that over 95% of tenants would also recommend us.
We also asked our clients to tell us why they would recommend us for property management and their answers are the testimonials you are reading throughout this website. Apart from correcting some spelling mistakes, these are the actual words they used.
We have listed below some of their reasons for recommending us to manage property. Edinburgh has so many letting agents that recommendations carry a lot of weight with landlords. As you can see their reasoning fits quite well with our 3 core principles....
