I did buy a house through Hamish homes, however it was not due to the agents' selling skills. On my 1st viewing which was in my lunchbreak so time was limited, Tony said he'd show me around quickly then leave me to browse on my own. He followed me around, incessantly talking about totally irrelevant things, was overbearing and "did not" leave me alone. I arranged a 2nd viewing which I had to chase 3 times for a response to, he arrived 15 minutes late. Again he did not leave me alone to view. Despite this, I made an offer which was accepted. I arranged a 3rd viewing so my son and his girlfriend could see it. Tony would not stop talking "at" my sons girlfriend, who could not escape him, I had to rescue her in the end so that she could actually look around the house. On my completion date, I would have liked to have been handed the keys so that I could open the door to my new house myself - instead I arrived to find Tony already in the house, saying the reason he was inside was to get my meter readings!! A very very odd way to operate and I was certainly not impressed!... Read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Their communication was poor, despite claiming to be available until 10pm. Our viewing was booked for 5pm. We turned up at 4.59pm and were told to go and wait in the car, because there were still people viewing. When the previous viewers had left we entered the house. Agent rushed us through the house in about 10 seconds explaining ”hallway, kitchen, outdoor tap, outdoor electric.” He sat down on his phone for the remainder of the viewing. He took 2 phone calls during our 5-10 minute viewing. Agent made me feel uncomfortable. He told us that Hamish Homes are the only letting agents that do not use fisheye lenses to take pictures, which is a lie. When I asked if we could leave the property by the rear entrance to see the rest of the property, Agent stared at me and said “that’s a really weird question”. The properly was offers over £210k so we put in a very good offer of £218k (which it wasn’t worth to be honest), and the house had been on the market for months. Our solicitor was then told in writing that no offer below £225k would be considered. If we’d had this info previously, we would have never made an offer through a solicitor, that we now have to pay. Massive waste of our time and money. The only way we found out that the property had actually sold, was through Facebook. I believe the property was misleadingly advertised for their benefit. We have since purchased a different property through a different estate agent. I would avoid.... Read more

Thank you Hamish Homes! We sold our house within the first couple viewings! We used Hamish to sell our home as there is no cost upfront which net our needs. We were contacted by George after filling out our details online and he made everything so quick and easy! Staying in contact at each step and giving us advice on where we should or shouldn’t accept. Thank you so much George!... Read more

Have recently sold our property with Hamish ….. Highly commend ????
George , our agent was so communicative , kept us informed at every stage of the process …made what can be a very stressful process so much more user friendly….have sold several other properties in the past and by comparison Hamish has been “ head and shoulders above in terms of service and delivery. Will definitely use them again if required in the future.... Read more

I cannot recommend Hamish Homes highly enough, we had been in our house 22 years and from the initial viewing for valuation by Stephen to the final day, Tony was just amazing, he answered every question (there were many) at whatever time of day or night.

I booked a viewing on a house and on arrival was met by the agent who had his face in his mobile phone and didn’t even look up to acknowledge me. Even when I said hello he just gave an insincere “Hi” without even looking up. He then walked into the house leaving the door open which I assumed was a sign for me to follow on. House was on sale for 285k and he immediately informed me that it was worth 330k (it absolutely was not), continued to tell me very personal information about why the current occupant was selling (not relevant or any of my business). I was then told to have a look around while he continued to stand in the living room in his phone. Toilet was a mess (surely a basic rule for a viewing is to ensure it is semi-clean). For some reason we still made an offer but received no further contact from Hamish and found out the house has sold via Instagram. The most unprofessional experience I’ve encountered in 25 years of house hunting. If you like the look of one of their properties be prepared to be either ripped off or ignored.... Read more

I've called Hamish Homes twice now to attempt to book viewings for two of their properties.
First property although it stated offers over £270,000 we were told that owner wouldn't accept anything under £300,000. Why not have it on at offers over £290,000 then? Thought this seemed strange but were willing to give a second chance.
Second time we called the gentleman was rude, could hear he had the TV on loudly in the background and basically didn't seem interested in working with us to arrange a viewing time.
Perhaps this is why both properties have been on the market for several months?
I would suggest that buyers and sellers alike avoid. Plenty of agents in Inverness who actually seem interested in facilitating a sale.... Read more

We are very happy to recommend Stephen and his team at Hamish Homes. We secured a sale very quickly. However, I would not recommend going with Wrights solicitors as part of the transaction as we are still waiting for our money from Friday's sale and purchase. Why? Our solicitor is busy!!!
1. His secretary deals with this.
2. I didn't work for a big banking organisation for 14 years plus co-ordinate a busy branch to know NOTHING.
Stick with a local solicitor is my advice as again I am waiting for Wrights!!.... Read more
