We were referred to Ralph Sayer by our mortgage broker and I am very glad that it happened. They were great through the purchase of our first home and made sure everything happened on time. We got our keys before lunch time on the day of completion and couldn't have been happier. There was very little stress and the team made us feel like everything was under control. We barely had lift a finger. Thanks to Angie, Maggie and everyone else who worked on our purchase for answering our questions, keeping us updated and for making sure nothing went wrong. We have heard a lot of horror stories about solicitors and purchasing a home, but I can confidently say that we didn't face any of those issues whatsoever. I am sure when it comes time to move again, we will be in touch :)... Read more

We have recently used Ralph Sayer for the purchase of our new home and sale of our old property (both in Edinburgh) and we would definitely recommend them for both buying and selling. Ralph Sayer are very good at explaining the buying and selling procedures at the beginning which we found useful as we had not bought or sold for a long time. Their negotiation skills to get the best price with the seller of the property we eventually bought; and also the buyer of the property we sold, are excellent. They communicated quickly with us by phone, email and post on the negotiations and also timings for viewings with interested parties. They organise the inspection of the property we sold for the Home Report (Shepherds); the marketing brochure - photography, floor plans, property tour (Property Studios); the sales board; and the online visibility (ESPC, Rightmove, ralphsayer.com etc). The legal team is good at concluding missives and they dealt with any issues efficiently. The various professionals we dealt with at Ralph Sayer are very efficient, polite and we always thought that they were acting in our best interests.... Read more

A special thank you to Katy, who went out and beyond to solve a complex situation for us while we dealt with the stressful situation of buying a new home. Katy kept us up to date at every stage, she empathised and really listened and eventually solved our unique case in a timely manner. It is people like Katy who make the real difference in this society and we are so lucky to have had you as our representative. THANK YOU!... Read more

Do not use Ralph Sayer as your solicitors to buy your house. Firstly, they kept getting my email wrong and sending my personal information to some random email address which is a huge issue and something I asked them to rectify multiple times. We also were asked if we wanted to buy furniture from the owners, we said we did. But our solicitors didn't pass on our email so the furniture was already sold. They are expensive, useless and you have to keep chasing them to make sure they are doing the work. They made a mistake on so many forms and tried to overcharge us by adding the first time buyer discount, instead of subtract it!. So incompetent.... Read more

We recently had the pleasure of working with Ralph Sayer Property Team to sell our home, and we couldn't be more impressed with their professionalism and efficiency. From the very start, they handled everything with exceptional care and attention to detail. The home report was completed swiftly, and the high-quality brochure they produced showcased our property beautifully. Their marketing strategy was spot-on, getting our home advertised quickly and effectively. Thanks to their expertise, our house was sold within just one week, far exceeding our expectations! The entire process was smooth, stress-free, and handled with the utmost professionalism. We highly recommend Ralph Sayer Property Team to anyone looking to sell their property.... Read more

Alan and I recently purchased our first home through Ralph Sayer, and we can't thank Ivan, Maggie, and Jadiene enough for their support. As first-time buyers, we were quite anxious about the process, but it turned out to be remarkably smooth and stress-free which is down to Ralph Sayer. Our offer was submitted and accepted within just two hours, and we moved into our new home within six weeks without any issues. We had countless questions as first-time buyers, but every one of them was answered promptly and thoroughly. If you're a first-time buyer feeling overwhelmed by the home-buying process, we highly recommend Ralph Sayer. Thank you again to the entire team at Ralph Sayer for helping us buy our perfect home....

I would like to say that as a first time buyer this experience was really frustrating, stressful and embarrassing at times. I was dealing with at some point 3 solicitors. Pros. -The Solicitors are very good at proactively finalising all the documents required for purchase of a home. -They were able to secure a property for me - the property was on a fixed price and even tho seller wanted more, they advised me not to proceed and in the end I was able to get the property for an original price. Cons. -Very poor communication, you can appreciate that when you are in a waiting period even the smallest email of an update saying 'this is what is happening, this is what we have done, or we are waiting on this' is very important - unfortunately I was the one that had to follow up and I constantly felt like I am being an inconvenience. -As a first time buyer, you have no idea what is going on and what is expected and what isn't, I didn't know that once you agree on a moving date until your solicitor sends you a list of agreements, with jargon you probably won't understand and say that this is now legally binding - it will not be legally binding. So if you have been left hanging because someone in the chain messed up and you need to keep paying for an accommodation there is nothing that will protect you at that stage. This was not clearly explained. -When I moved in and noticed that part of the door is broken and I had 5 days to disclose any issues with the house, and they had to exceed £400, I have been told that this repair will unlikely be £400 worth - which is fair. But then I got a transfer of £20 from Ralph and you could say that 'oh that's nice' but there was no email being like 'we appreciate this inconvenience the seller willingly wanted to pay for the broken part, or we are paying that off' I just don't know what that was, just money thrown at you. -I had different solicitors contacting me with information, at the very end I just had one solicitor that I have never spoken to sending me some list, which I didn't know what to do with, what is it for, who that person is. -Finally when everything is completed don't expect any 'congratulation', 'thank you for choosing us', 'good luck'. Nothing just, no contact and that's it. In summary, efficient (kind off), no communication, no empathy, no support, no personality, no not even customer service but just being a human to another human. I felt awful during the whole transaction.... Read more

I was very blessed to have Robyn Donaldson as my solicitor when purchasing a property! The completion process went by smoothly even though the timeframes for exchaging was short. Even though it can be quite a stressful process, Robyn was very communicative and responsive throughout the process which gave a lot of re-assurance and I really felt like I was in good hands. They helped to secure my home and I have to say, 5 star service all the way! Would recommend Robyn to anyone looking for a solicitor!... Read more
