Highly recommend

At the time I was purchasing my property the expected time for completion was four months. However I expressed my desire to complete before the end of March. I knew this wasn't going to be easy, but I was told they would do their best. They did more than that as from instruction date to completion was less than six weeks. Amazing. Well done Fraser Dawbarns.

Declaration of Trust

Required a legal document to be drawn up for part ownership of a house. Iain recommended a declaration of trust which he drew up and actioned. All went through with no problems, excellent.

We used Fraser Dawbarns for both selling and buying and were really impressed. Adele was brilliant throughout - quick to respond, clear with advice and supportive during stressful moments. Great value for money too! Thank you Adele and Iain!

After a bad experience, we were given the details of Fraser Dawbarns with high recommendations. We were not disappointed. The service was exceptional. No dramas, honest and professional. We couldn't have asked for anything better.
