McLlwaine & Ewart

This tiny, white fronted shop could very easily be missed. In fact, I walked right past in despite having the name and address written down in front of me. I’d like to think this was not me being especially dumb, but the shop front being rather inoffensive.
No matter, this has been to date the only estate agent from which I have bought a flat. Indeed, up until the day I moved into my newly purchased flat I had no idea where this was. Rather worrying, I know.
Anyway, I was working from 8am-​6pm (8pm on Thursday) in two jobs, seven days a week for about a fortnight a few summers ago; to cover some lucky devil of a boss who’d left and not bothered to hire any extra staff.
As you can imagine, this made it extremely difficult to continue my property hunt and I ended up doing most of it through an old (and quite smelly) yellow pages and the work’s telephone. Therefore, I was ecstatic when a lovely woman from here called me up. She’d spoken to me earlier in the week and kept a hold of my details. Which — unlike many estate agents — she’d actually bothered to use when something matching my specifications came in.
So, from my limited experience I would give this place a major thumbs up. They were very polite, helpful and managed to do everything over the phone. They also kept my details and actually used them. Additionally, they were also good enough to talk the seller into giving me an 8pm viewing on a rather nice June evening due to my hectic work schedule.
Small, but perfectly capable of pulling punches well above their estate agent weight.
