We had a terrible experience with this firm. We had a property in Perth that they managed while we were living in Australia. In April 2016 they advised us that our tenant was leaving. We told them that we wanted to renew carpet and paint the house. They asked if we wanted them to get quotes and we readily agreed since we were in Australia. It took about 5 weeks for them to advise us that they had only been able to get one quote despite their efforts to get more. The quote was from a person they recommended highly. We did not know that the quote came from a relative of the Factor and was the partner of one of his office colleagues at Aberdein Considine. We accepted the quote and the guy turned out to be incompetent and dishonest. We paid him 8000 pounds and he made a complete mess and grossly overcharged for materials. We had to bring in other tradesmen to fix things at a cost of over 10000 pounds. Aberdein Considine did not dispute that the contractor had made a mess but said they could not be held responsible. We said they had a duty of care when recommending a tradesmen and they had a clear conflict of interest in this situation. They claimed there was no proof they had recommended the contractor even though there was no way we could have found this contractor ourselves. Since all the recommendations were made by phone, it was our word against theirs that they had recommended this "tradesman". They felt no guilt or shame at putting us in this situation. I would be very careful in dealing with this company as their ethics are highly questionable in our view.

Having just moved from England to Scotland I rented a property managed by Aberdein Considine. As independent estate agents are not regulated by the council (my daughter rents through PKC and never had any issues with the flat or the landlord) agency really has no ...

THE most appalling letting agency I have ever dealt with in my life. I cannot stipulate how much they should be avoided.
We rented a 4-bedroom property from them as we we relocated and wished to consider where we wanted to buy before doing so ...
