Comment on agent fees
As we had already put in offers for many different flats and not heard back, we felt obliged to offer more than the asking price for the rental of the flat in order to finally secure something. Although I realise the decision to accept offers ultimately lie with the landlord and not the agent, it was frustrating nevertheless. Moreover, this new rent fee was then equated to be the original asking price as we were offered to renew our tenancy for a second year at a yet further increased rate, which didn't take into account the fact that we were already paying above asking price for the current year.

Comment on agent fees
I thought the fee was well worth it for the service delivered. I suspect there are cheaper lettings agents in Edinburgh, but I doubt they are as professional. It is probably worth mentioning that whenever the tenancy was renewed I was advised to increase the rent, but never by an amount which prevented the tenants from deciding to stay on
