Looking to sell?

SELLING YOUR HOME. DONE PROPERLY.

Most estate agents will value your home, list it on a portal, and wait. We take a different approach.
Selling your home successfully takes more than a listing and a For Sale board. It takes honest advice, considered marketing, and someone who stays closely involved throughout. At Home Sales and Lettings, we take the time to understand your home, your circumstances, and your goals before we build a strategy around them.
We are an independent, boutique estate agency based in Edinburgh. Our approach is personal, considered, and focused entirely on achieving the right result for you.

A DIFFERENT KIND OF ESTATE AGENT

Most agencies measure success by volume. We measure it by outcomes. The price achieved, the experience delivered, and the relationships built along the way.
We work with a selective number of clients at any one time, which means your property receives the attention it deserves. You will always deal directly with an experienced member of the team.
There are no hidden fees, no empty promises, and no pressure. Just honest, expert guidance from people who genuinely know the Edinburgh market.

HOW WE SELL YOUR HOME

Our sales service is built around you. Whether you are selling a family home, a rental property, or something more unusual, we adapt our approach to suit your property, your timeline, and your priorities.

Valuation and Pricing Strategy
Getting the price right from the outset is critical. We provide a thorough, evidence-based valuation drawing on current market data and deep local knowledge. Honest advice, not flattery.
Presentation and Preparation
First impressions shape buyer decisions. We advise on how to present your home to its best advantage before photography begins. Small changes can have a meaningful impact on the interest and price your property achieves.
Professional Photography and Marketing
Every property benefits from professional photography and carefully written copy. Your home will be listed on Rightmove and OnTheMarket, featured in our office window on Portobello High Street, and promoted across our own channels.
Targeted Buyer Outreach
We maintain an active database of registered buyers. When your property comes to market, we match it against buyers who are already looking, often generating early interest ahead of the public listing going live.
Accompanied Viewings
We accompany every viewing personally, showcasing your home with confidence, gathering direct feedback from buyers, and using that intelligence to inform our ongoing sales strategy.
Negotiation
Negotiating the best possible price requires skill, timing, and market knowledge. We act in your interest throughout, providing clear advice on all offers received.
Sales Progression
Agreeing a sale is the beginning, not the end. We actively manage the transaction through to completion, keeping things moving and resolving issues before they become problems.
