It's easy to wander past this tiny letting agency, especially given it's shop front which is stark…read morewhite with peeling paint. Perhaps, this alone will put some off. And if that doesn't, perhaps reading some of the descriptive paper cards in the window will put other off. It this is the case, it truly is a shame. This is a minuscule, letting agency that has been here for years. While it clearly doesn't look like much (particularly compared to the shiny, new Lets Direct next door) it is very friendly, personable and completely people orientated. If you explain what you're looking, in what price range and where abouts you'll be offered up all the likely candidates they have. Furthermore, they'll let you know about anything which with is soon become available but is not yet advertised. If you fail to find something suitable from this selection, then they'll keep you on their books and phone you pronto if anything comes up. Excellent, indeed! For those of you who are slightly more faint hearted it is worth keeping in mind that some of the properties they offer are very much on the budget end of things. So, if you're after a big, swish, shiny, new pad this place probably isn't your best bet.

I've been using knights, living in one of their flats since 2008, & i have absolutely no regrets…read morein choosing knights as a letting agent! The staff are ever so friendly, professional and understanding! If you do ever happen to have an issue with your accommodation, it is addressed as promptly as is able! It's always usually the same workmen that they use, which makes me feel at ease, knowing I'm not always gonna get a Stranger, if there ever is an issue! I've always found the staff easy to talk to and approach about anything or any of my concerns! At the same time though, i wouldn't ever take their kindness & helpfulness as a form of weakness! You no doubt will be held to account, just like any other landlord! All i can say is after 4 tenancies, with gha, with knights i got/found my 1st home! I can't recommend them highly enough, even my friends tell me that im so lucky to have a landlord like them & that I landed on my feet with them! That's comments coming from my friends! Actions speak louder than words, that's why i a gave 5 star rating!

Super helpful for mortgage advice!…read more I had unexpectedly seen a property and decided to start making enquiries about mortgages for advice. Phoned in and managed to get a same day appointment. Spent close to an hour and a half, reviewing all options regards deposits, government schemes, best lenders and their requirements. Spent time also going over my income and outgoings so come prepared to be honest. My consultant, Lisa, was in regular contact over the next few days with additional options and information. Excellent service that I'd happily recommend. Advice is free and independent but if you proceed to a mortgage in principal then the charge is £399.

It is based in the common green with a couple of windows displaying houses and flats in and around Strathaven.

This tiny, white fronted shop could very easily be missed. In fact, I walked right past in despite…read morehaving 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.

I have the misfortune of living under a flat which is let by DJ Alexander. I recently experienced flooding through my ceiling causing damage to paintwork and ruining personal items. I was initially told by DJ Alexander that this was the fault of the tenants due to them not closing the shower door properly and was assured I would be reimbursed for the cost of the repainting and personal items. I was later told that no reimbursement would be forthcoming as it was an "accident" and due to insurance excess I am now out of pocket. As a tenant I would be concerned about the type of landlord they work with and as a landlord I would be concerned about due diligence carried out in relation to tenants.

They sent people to the view the property whilst I was still in the process of moving out, without informing me. Got back to the flat to clean up and viewing agent just stood there asking me if I was there to view. I spent the best part of a week and a half cleaning the place. Still not heard back on my deposit, they mentioned dirt on exterior of windows and was quoting £160 minimum. Not sure how this company is for landlords but if you are a prospective tenant you would be better off finding another company. Parasitic service that will drain financially and emotionally. I'm going to upload a YouTube video later today detailing all of the above. Avoid.

We considered Mov8 and others, who were cheaper, but the energy and drive to help us was not there with anyone else. Seriously, after meeting Gary we couldn't go with anyone else. Speaking of Mov8, they are about 1k cheaper than McEwan, which is indeed a lot of money. But when Gary says he sells properties for more than the home report, he can do it. Anyone else, maybe they can, but I don't see them trying as hard to do it. They offer options, different marketing packages and such, and the midnight hours are an option, but it does make them stand out and it is helpful to selling. That's why we went for these guys.
