Feedback
We believe the most effective way to ensure we deliver the best possible service is to listen to our tenants. The feedback our tenants provided painted a really positive picture of our team and services:
“Thank you for being so much better than our previous tenancy agencies where once you are renting a property it felt like they didn't want to hear from you. Maintenance issues have been dealt with swiftly and everyone we have spoken to has been a pleasure to deal with. Clan Gordon were also very accommodating when we first moved in, letting friends view the flat as we could not be in Edinburgh for Covid reasons.”
“You are very good at knowing your clients. If I call up with an enquiry, the person always instantly knows the property and repair history. This makes things so much easier and is impressive given the volume of properties Clan Gordon manages.”
“Definitely the best renting experience we’ve had in Edinburgh.”
“Move-in process was smooth with all questions answered quickly. Maintenance issues dealt with quickly and help given with parking permits.”
“Our time with Clan Gordon has been really positive and we have always been able to get help when we need it, thanks for making our first home together a positive experience!”
“Clan Gordon have been very helpful throughout our application for our student flat. The email reminders kept us on track for our application and thank you for your patience when we had difficulty.”
“Best letting agents I have ever had, so friendly and helpful, a far cry from the usual tenant vs agent battle that is all too common when renting a property. I would recommend Clan Gordon to anyone in a heartbeat.”
“The pandemic has been a tough time for many, and at Clan Gordon you guys went above and beyond to make sure you made it easier for us when we struggled with payments by offering us feasible options. Honestly, we cannot thank you enough. A little goes a long way, and you helped us out during our toughest and darkest times.”
