Flat Purchase Edinburgh

Everything was very efficient, there was good communication throughout the transaction. Emails were responded to immediately. If we had any questions they were dealt with promptly and clearly. Will certainly be using Watermans and Kathy again for any future purchases or legal work in Edinburgh.

Outstanding work

Robyn went above and beyond to get a better outcome of a car claim than I'd excepted! Not only did she manage to prove I was not at fault and recover my policy excess but she also managed to get me additional compensation for the inconvenience of the third party insurance. Robyn had great communication from start to finish both over email and on the phone. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and outcome! Thank you again Robyn, you're a star!

First time buyers

Evie Brown was absolutely wonderful - friendly, proactive, kept in constant communication also taking the time to explain aspects in ways we would understand having not purchased a property before. We were updated throughout with clear guidance on things we needed to do and what they were doing at their end. Extremely diligent and thorough with the legal aspect of the house purchase and checked in regularly detailing what she was doing - this seems to be quite rare from talking to other people and it made such a huge difference instead of just hoping things were happening behind the scenes! Genuinely made such a stressful time feel so much easier - can't thank her enough!!

Fantastic Support and Guidance

As first time buyers unfamiliar with the approach and process , Alex really supported us through to getting an offer accepted
Alex was very responsive, friendly, and great at answering all our questions. She really putt us at ease, guiding us through each step so we knew exactly what was happening, what we needed to do, and what was next.
We couldn’t have been happier with Alex.

We used Watermans for the purchase of our first flat and they've been fantastic! Lauren was so positive and on the ball with our questions when submitting our offers. She explained the process, timelines and how to manage expectations as well - as first time buyers, it made our experience really great.
For the legal side, we worked with Caitlin and she was also very proactive and responsive throughout. We felt we could ask any questions and she followed up on every ask we had.
We would definitely recommend Watermans to anyone who is considering to buy! Very professional and friendly approach.

In the initial stage, Lauren was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, explaining everything about making an offer in detail. After that, Caron handled the conveyancing work with professionalism, ensuring everything was completed on time. She was very friendly, and all email communications received prompt replies. I was truly overwhelmed by the excellent service from start to receiving my keys. Thank you so much! 🙏
