We challenge traditions by adapting to the ever-changing market conditions quickly and by giving honest advice to achieve a full market price, without being unrealistic. While many established Edinburgh agents focus purely on their sales processes, we focus on people and on delivering a truly excellent service to each and every one of our clients that trust us with their sale.

Our History

Truscott Property launched on the 1 st January 2017. After working in property for many years, Stephen Truscott noticed a demand for a truly personal and bespoke service.

Our Awards

We have won several awards since launching in 2017. While we are proud to be recognised with industry awards it is more important what our clients think of us. We are rated 5 Stars on Google, Facebook and LinkedIn.
