Get in touch

Blair Cadell gave us an excellent service and were great at staying in touch and supporting us throughout the whole process of marketing and selling. They were very good value for money.

Diana Paton 18 October 2023

First class service from all of Jamie, Ross and Kirsty. We were kept updated by Kirsty on an almost daily basis. Thoroughly recommend Blair Cadell if you need to sell your home.

Barclay Wilkinson 13 October 2023

A very good service for selling - well managed, strong presence in the Slateford area of Edinburgh.

Alastair Thomson 4 October 2023

Fantastic service - personable and professional. They were never too busy to answer any query we had, no matter how inane. Would highly recommend.

Edd McCracken 25 August 2023

Fantastic service from Ross Dunbar. He picked up errors in my title and went the extra mile to ensure a friendly and professional sale of my investment property.

Minty One 20 August 2023

All the team at Blair Cadell were excellent as they helped me sell and buy. They efficiently dealt with both transactions and kept me updated on each step of the process. I would thoroughly recommend them.

Rachel Sloan 14 August 2023

We recently used Blair Cadell conveyancing services for our property purchase in Edinburgh. We can’t recommend Ross Dunbar highly enough - from start to finish he made the process incredibly straightforward and his advice when it came to various issues proved absolutely invaluable. Ross answered the phone every time we called and was just really great to deal with. We have recommended him to several friends (not something we’ve ever been able to do before with a solicitor!) and we will certainly go to him again next time we move. Thank you!

Rachel McTavish 3 August 2023

Flat sale went extremely smoothly. Everything was explained, everything was done when it was supposed to be and I couldn't ask for a better service.

Aran Price 19 July 2023

Fantastic service from start to finish. I was selling a flat for the first time and they made the process very easy. Jamie, Kirsty and the team kept me well informed throughout. Would highly recommend Blair Cadell.

Graeme Clow 17 July 2023

Organised and professional, always helpful and excellent communications throughout. Missives completed two weeks prior to move - can't fault the team!

Gavin Wilson 17 July 2023

I would highly recommend Blair Cadell for conveyancing. The solicitor I worked with, Adele, was attentive, friendly and polite throughout the whole process. She never minded me popping by to ask a question or check on progress. Issues with the missives were spotted and dealt with very professionally, even saving me some money in the process! I would absolutely work with Blair Cadell again in the future.

Tom Pickles 11 July 2023

We had a great experience selling our flat with Blair Cadell! Jamie was very proactive from the start, ensuring our flat was on the market quickly. Jemma and Keri were great at communicating with us throughout the selling process. Highly recommend!

Clare Macleod 13 June 2023

Staff are all friendly and very helpful.

Marc Jones 12 May 2023

Ewen Kennedy 11 May 2023

The whole Blair Cadell team was excellent and helped with both selling/purchasing our property as well as the solicitor services. Highly recommended.

MARC VENDRELL 6 May 2023

We sold our property through Blair Cadel and also purchased our new home. The team are extremely professional and have great knowledge of the local area. The marketing was excellent helping us exceed our price expectations. The team have been excellent through the whole process keeping us updated and offering excellent advice. I would definitely use the service again.

Tom Kiely 17 April 2023

Excellent service and extremely friendly. I have used Blair Cadell many times and they have always been excellent

Brian Harris 7 April 2023

Blair Cadell Solicitors have helped us to purchase our home, and the process from beginning to end has been seamless. From the beginning, Jamie was polite, understanding and took the time to answer all my questions. Keri handled our case and really, she has been amazing! Professional, accurate and always available to speak with - the whole process has been stress free. I highly recommend them and would definitely use again.

Nataly Murphy 10 February 2023

Nothing but good words to say about Blair Cadell. They really go the extra mile for clients and I have first hand experience of this. Great from the word go and all the way through to completion. If you are looking for a solicitor or estate agent, look no further!

Iain Collins 10 February 2023

Blair Cadell handled both the sale of our flat and purchase of our new house. Jamie and Jemma in the Harrison Gardens were excellent throughout the whole process. Ours was not an entirely straightforward sale so we were heavily reliant on the expertise at hand, and felt very confident in the advice we were given which was always delivered promptly and with much appreciated transparency. I did feel once we got to the conveyancing stage and were then dealing with the other office that response times were a bit slow, which sometimes left us wondering if everything was ok, but the work was always being progressed in the background and all the interactions we had were friendly and uncomplicated. Ultimately I would definitely recommend using Blair Cadell for sale, purchase or both!

Catherine Nolan 2 February 2023

I found Blair Cadell to be excellent at all stages of the sale process and would wholeheartedly recommend them. Their staff kept me informed of progress throughout the transaction. Nothing was too much trouble for them.

Steve James 27 January 2023

Really professional and helpful. We felt gently guided with their expertise. But able to make our own decisions throughout. Professional and friendly

Heather Eadie 27 January 2023

Great, professional (and patient ) service from start to finish for our house sale.

Christine Lawson 14 December 2022

Contacted Blair Cadell after an awful mishap with another solicitor who left me feeling very unconfident. So, so glad I ended up using Blair Cadell, a blessing in disguise really. Not only is their customer service amazing (shout out to Jamie and Ross), but they also really know how to guide you through the buying/selling process. Even if your main point of contact is out of the office, other members of the office quickly and easily pick up any questions or queries you may have (rather than having to wait for them to come back or having to explain what stage you are at etc.). My 'chain' fell through when selling my property, and Jamie at Blair Cadell had it back under offer with another buyer the very same day. Cannot recommend them enough.

Yvonne Pearce 7 December 2022

The service from Blair Cadell was excellent, I have no hesitation in recommending them - reliable, efficient and friendly

Lucy Kershaw 2 December 2022

Our buying and selling experience was made simple through Blair Cadell. The whole process was flawless. The customer service we received was second to none. Communication, advice and legal paperwork was handled efficiently and professionally. Jamie, Kirsty and Ross have a wealth of knowledge and supported us throughout this process. We are delighted with Blair Cadell’s service. Thank you to a wonderful company and team.

Fiona Rhode 21 November 2022

We have recently bought and sold in Edinburgh and the team at Blair Cadell are first class. We were able to get our property on the market quickly and we were delighted with the quality of the marketing materials. Most importantly for us, the staff are always helpful and professional ensuring we were always kepy fully informed. We would definately recommend Blair Cadell - many thanks to all the team including Jamie, Kirsty and Ross. Dorothy and Fred

Dorothy Armstrong 1 November 2022

Jamie and the team at Blair Cadell have been great throughout the whole process, always available to answer questions and very knowledgeable about the local market.

Matt Walker 9 October 2022

We were comfortable using Blair Cadell to sell our property in Shandon as we knew they had good knowledge of the area and its properties. We were delighted with the helpful support and responsive service we received from the BC team.

Alan Millar 27 September 2022

We found the staff to be knowledgeable, super efficient and hard working. We were sent a good quantity of good quality viewers which resulted in us getting a selection of acceptable offers within 2 weeks. We could not be more happy to recommend Blair Cadell.

Liz Meenagh 23 June 2022

This was my first house selling experience and I was quite anxious about the whole process. I needn't have been because the people at Blair Cadell held my hand throughout. From the people in the office at Harrison Gardens, Jamie, Jemma and Kirsty to the conveyancing solicitors, Adele and Andrew; all were supremely helpful, friendly, polite, professional, reassuring and attentive to detail, exactly the qualities you need when getting the perfect deal for you as a seller. Their fees are worth it because in the end you get the price you want. In my case, I got a cash purchaser who lived round the corner and who paid EXACTLY what I wanted. Queries are dealt with promptly and if there are any changes you want made to the selling material, they are carried out speedily as well. They know the local market better than anyone. I would thoroughly recommend them!

J Raymond 17 May 2022

We choose Blair Cadell to sell our house because right from the beginning Jamie was understanding, professional and extremely helpful. The process was handled very efficiently and we were delighted with the marketing approach and materials. Kirsty handled the viewings and negotiations exceptionally well, always keeping us in the loop. We are delighted with the outcome and highly recommend them.

Linda Richardson 8 April 2022

The excellent and responsive team at Blair Cadell made selling my flat a very simple process. They took any stress away and always responded very quickly to any queries I had. I would highly recommend this firm.

Alison O'Neale 23 March 2022

Using Blair Cadell to sell my property has been an easy and stress free way to do things. They have handled everything and I have had a quick and fruitful sale of the property. As a first time seller this has been a wonderful experience and I would recommend Blair Cadell to anyone looking to sell their properties.

Jenni Connolly 18 March 2022

Excellent and professional service provided from the start by Jamie and prompt follow ups by Jemma too they both kept us informed with the progress of both buying and selling properties, would highly recommend Blair Cadell to anyone looking to put their home on the market.

Elaine Mayberry 17 March 2022

If you've found Blair Cadell Solicitors, consider yourself lucky because you're in good hands. I couldn't be more impressed with the care and attention I received from Andrew at Blair Cadell. He has been very attentive to my case from the first phone call, and was generous with his advice even before he officially agreed to act on my behalf. I felt that he genuinely cared about the case. That makes a difference. I've used many solicitors over the years and he's the best by far. Would definitely go back to him should another opportunity arise. I recommend him highly and without reservation.

Di Walker 14 March 2022

The service from the team at Blair Cadell was very professional. They provide me with great advice, took all the hassle away from the selling process and achieved a great result for me. Jamie and Kirsty in particular were extremely helpful and great to deal with.

Michelle Cullis 11 February 2022

We have recently sold our property / buying new and have used Blair Caddell for both sides of transaction. The service throughout has been excellent. From initial engagement and pre-conveyancing work via Jamie Sole/Kirsty Thomson that was friendly, efficient and pro-active (including re-negotiating following a glitch on your part); through to the thorough & professional legal work and missives for selling via Ross Dunbar. We had have a very smooth process and support/advice throughout and were happy to sell our property very quickly too. I would use these services again.

craig mckirdy 19 January 2022

smooth and quick selling process. decent price. very helpful and accommodating.

M P 17 January 2022

The staff were all excellent, having never sold a property they talked me through the process, answered my many, many questions and were always happy to help. I have recommended them to friends who are selling and will continue to do so.

Kirsten Sawyer 17 January 2022

We’ve now used Blair Caddell three times. Their guidance and expertise have led to successful outcomes beyond our expectations on each occasion. As well as directing us towards making good decisions, the staff encouraged us to have autonomy, consulting us at every stage for our input. They also made the process as stress free as possible, supporting us by responding to concerns in a timely manner. Their conduct is always very professional, yet friendly and approachable.

Andrew Maine 15 January 2022

Our daughter used Blair Cadell’s services when she bought a flat in Edinburgh at the end of last year. In particular, she found that Adele was very approachable throughout the process and dealt with any problems in a timely, thoughtful and professional manner. Consequently, when we bought a new house recently, we had no hesitation in asking her to act for us. We couldn’t recommend BC and Adele highly enough. She was always there for us!

Gordon Fitzsimons 12 July 2021

We had a great experience selling our flat/buying a new one through Blair Cadell recently. The team were really helpful answering all my questions along the way, and made the whole process smooth and seamless.

Magdalena Baines 16 April 2021

I had to deal with the lawyers from overseas and during the Covid pandemic. I found their services extremely prompt and professional. Questions asked were immediately replied too. Would certainly recommend them to others. Regina DCosta

Regina DCosta 14 April 2021

Great lawyers have used on many property purchases and will continue to do so

Gregor Brown 12 February 2021

Trying to buy my first home in 2020 was a challenge but I couldn’t have done it without Adele from Blair Cadell. She helped from day one with honest helpful feedback and advice and guided me through the entire process. Great value for money with transparent costs. I wholeheartedly recommend and if I were to ever to purchase or sell a home in future I will 100% be using Blair Cadell again.

Emma Grant 8 December 2020

I could not recommend Blair Cadell highly enough. I had complete faith in Keri to deal with all and any problems with my flat move. I used various funds and an ISA to help buy my property and it probably should have been quite a stressful process, but I was completely relaxed knowing Keri was on it. Adele was incredibly helpful whilst Keri was on leave and dealt with her share of the problems quickly and efficiently, ensuring I could move in on my desired date. Keri was recommended to me by a friend and if any of my friends move any time soon I'll be doing the same for them.

Catherine Vallis 2 December 2020

Very friendly, helpful, knowledgable and efficient service throughout our property purchase. Adele Chalmers was excellent and we highly recommend her.

Roger and Julia King 20 October 2020

We used Blair Cadell to help with the purchase of our flat and they were extremely efficient and friendly. Adele was very helpful and professional throughout the whole process even though the entire sale was made extremely difficult by COVID. She made the process easier and less stressful for us. We would use them in the future and recommend to others.
