Home > Student FAQ’s
We’re here to help all of our student tenants to make the process of finding, selecting and moving in to your perfect student pad as simple and as straightforward as possible.
We’ve been asked some strange things over the years, and we’re always happy to help!
Your Property Consultant is on hand to answer any specific queries you might have about your property, but we’ve compiled the following list of FAQs for you to have a look through to get you started.
We provide a full range of property services to landlords, tenants, buyers and sellers in Edinburgh. Our highly experienced team can help you to buy, sell, let or rent a property anywhere in the city and with our award-winning customer service, you know you are going to get the best deal possible whatever your needs may be.
Rather than becoming fixated on churn, that is closing the deal regardless of the quality of the match, we take a more patient approach. We don’t try to force square pegs into round holes. We know that it’s better for everyone involved, including us and our reputation, if we take a little extra time and exert a little extra effort to make the ideal match. If you would like to take advantage of any of our property services in Edinburgh, get in touch with us today.
We have won numerous awards for our letting services in Edinburgh, thanks to our tireless efforts on behalf of local landlords and tenants. If you own one or more properties in the area and would like us to help you find responsible tenants, we would be delighted to help you. We also offer a full Property Management service, which takes all the stress out of letting property in Edinburgh. If you need a professional property manager you can trust, call and speak to us today.
For tenants, we offer a friendly service focused on finding the best properties at the best prices. We have helped hundreds of local professionals to find reasonably priced quality accommodation in the area and we also offer a special service to students in Edinburgh. If you are attending university here and looking for a house to share with fellow students, our all-inclusive lets are perfect for your needs.
As you may already know, we recently expanded our operations to include real estate sales and you can expect the same exceptionally high level of service from our sales team as our letting team has provided in the past. We cater to home buyers and sellers in Edinburgh as well as to property investors who are looking for new opportunities in the area. If you are interested in buying and selling property, or you have an existing or newly acquired property and need a property manager, pick up the phone or drop an email to Quirky Property. Here’s why:
Local Knowledge – If you are to make the most of your investment, you need estate agents in Edinburgh that have an in-depth understanding of the local market. We have been helping people let and rent properties here for more than a decade, so our knowledge of the Edinburgh area and its property market is extensive and detailed.
Expert Advice – Our vast experience with Edinburgh and the surrounding areas means we are fully qualified to provide timely, reliable advice that will help you make a sound investment, sell at the right time at the right price, or determine which property management services are right for you.
Fully Accredited – We pride ourselves on meeting the highest standards. Quirky Property is registered with the governing bodies Safeagent, ARLA, and The Property Ombudsman. We have also been voted as a trusted agent on the popular review site Feefo.
Varied Skillset – In addition to our standard estate and lettings services, we also have experience in handling property refurbishments. We can help transform underperforming properties into profitable investments. We’ll offer insights and advice as well as hands on project management for refurbishment projects, working alongside trusted teams of local contractors.
Open Communication – Some estate agents specialise in not returning calls. That’s just not our style. We keep the lines of communication open from day 1 through to the conclusion of our business. And if you have any follow-up questions, you’ll find our customer service is top-notch.
Flexibility – We understand that real estate transactions are really big deals for most people. So, flexibility is baked into our approach. There are no long-term sales contracts and if you change your mind, just give us 30 days’ notice.
A Fresh Approach – Our estate agents in Edinburgh are forward-looking, innovative thinkers who are not tied to outmoded ways of doing business. We’re always on the lookout for a better way, and that attitude is showcased by things like our “no sale no fee” service.
We offer a hands-on Block Management service that is designed to ensure both owners and occupants of leasehold buildings in the city are completely happy. Our experienced Block Management team can handle all maintenance, repairs, cleaning, insurance and legal issues on your behalf.
While we spend a lot of time working with potential buyers, tenants and investors, landlord services still make up a significant portion of our business. Everything from rent collection to property management, arranging for End of Tenancy Cleaning, overseeing gas safety inspections and even home renovation work, are all on the table when you work with Quirky Property.
