What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Edinburgh clients return again and again to the personal attention provided by Michael Hodgson and Abigail Stewart, supported by colleagues including Stephanie and Robyn. An observation shared by more than one reviewer is the professionalism running through sales and lettings alike, from off-market introductions to tenants being settled quickly into rented homes. Buyers and sellers describe being kept informed at every stage, with honest assessments and sensible expectations maintained even when the market moved slowly. Guidance on pricing, presentation and viewings is called thorough, and negotiations are said to be conducted with patience and care.

Landlords value prompt, straightforward correspondence that left them comfortable and their properties occupied. Would-be tenants note that helpful advice continued even when nothing suitable was on the books, an approach described as going well beyond the usual letting service. Teams are organised and responsive, whether handling a purchase, a sale or ongoing property management, and the same attentiveness is reported from the first conversation through to completion. Michael receives particular credit for experience and a reassuring manner, while Abigail is praised for openness and quick replies. Lewis and Liz Wood were among those who completed an off-market purchase.

Michael and his team are exceptional. Each aspect of the sales process has been very well thought out and the end result is superb. The advice on price, the fine details on the listing and viewings, the communication throughout and the final negotiations - I couldn't have asked for better, truly. If I sell a property again, I will be using MacGregor.

Abigail at MacGregor has been brilliant to work with while I was searching for a flat to rent in Edinburgh. What really stood out is that she kept helping and offering genuinely useful advice even when she didn't have a property on her books that matched my requirements. Her communication has been quick and personal throughout, and she's gone well above and beyond what I'd expect from a letting agent. I couldn't recommend her more highly to anyone searching for a rental property in Edinburgh.

I highly rate and recommend Macgregor’s. Whilst I had contact with the company every employee was professional and more importantly passionate about finding the right home for you. The founder Micheal Hodgson even took the time to ring and answer questions I had. Great company, great people.

Abigail at Macgregor Property has been great to work with on renting out our Edinburgh property. She has been open, honest, clear and prompt with all our communications and this has led quickly to us being relaxed landlords and having settled tenants !

From initial inquiry to move-in to currently residing in our Macgregor-managed flat, our experience with Abigail Stewart and Macgregor has been wonderful. She is so responsive, happy to find out answers to any questions, and overall a lovely person to interact with. We couldn't be happier with their services. Highly recommend!

Claro, aquí tienes una reseña natural y profesional en inglés para Google: Abigail was an amazing agent from the very first moment we got in touch. Even though the flat I originally wanted was no longer available, she immediately showed great proactivity and offered me another option that turned out to be perfect for me. As a foreigner who had just arrived in Edinburgh, I was honestly nervous about the whole process of finding a permanent home. Abigail was incredibly empathetic and supportive every step of the way. She explained everything patiently, stayed in almost constant contact through WhatsApp and email, and was always quick to answer my questions and help with any doubts I had. The Edinburgh rental market is extremely dynamic, and many viewings are only scheduled at very specific times. Abigail was also very understanding of my work schedule and helped arrange viewings at times that were manageable for me. She also took the time to share my situation and background with the landlord, which helped build trust and made the whole process much smoother — while also making clear that I had all my documents and requirements in order as a reliable tenant. She truly looked after both sides: the landlord’s security and mine as well. Again, she guided me through the entire process with kindness, professionalism, and genuine care. THANK YOU, ABIGAIL — you made something I was honestly very scared of, finding my permanent home in Edinburgh, feel simple and easy, and now I have my dream flat. I feel very, very lucky to have found you, and I’m sure many others will feel the same if they have you as their agent.

I have recently been working with Macgregor's Lettings, Abigail and her team give a high standard of service, they are very organised, friendly and always quick to respond. It is a pleasure working with Macgregor’s and I’d happily recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy lettings agency in Edinburgh.
