Property Acquisitions

We use our extensive experience and detailed market knowledge to provide professional advice on the acquisition of prime residential, rural and development properties in Scotland and the North East of England.

Our Branches

We are proud of the fact that we are headquartered in Scotland’s capital Edinburgh, with city offices in London, Newcastle and Glasgow. We also have specialist rural offices in St Andrews, Melrose and Berwick upon Tweed.

Being located in the very areas we are transacting within and having teams who’ve spent their lives living and working in these places, gives us a distinct competitive advantage and enables us to say with integrity that we genuinely do possess ‘local knowledge with international reach’.

Our Buying & Acquisition Guides

At Rettie we back up our acquisitions service with lots of useful information. To help clients who are looking to purchase a property, we have produced a number of practical guides. Our Buying Guide provides comprehensive information on buying a property in Scotland, including the costs you need to consider and the role of a solicitor in the process. Our Guide to Acquisitions provides detailed information on our acquisition services and shows how we will help you select and secure the best property for the best price.
