Scottish Letting Agent Register: Is your agent registered?

October 1, 2018

As of 1^st October 2018 it’s illegal for Scottish Letting Agents to continue trading unless they have registered with the Government’s new Scottish Letting Agent Register: it has been introduced to drive up standards in the industry. Any active Agency who has not yet applied is breaking the law and could be liable for large fines.

Yates Hellier had been preparing for over a year and applied months ago, however we have been made aware that a worrying percentage of agents have not yet registered. If you have properties with other Glasgow Letting Agents we advise you check to make sure that they’re registered.

What is the Scottish Letting Agent Register?

The Scottish Letting Agent Register offers reassurances that all registered agents have been thoroughly vetted by the Scottish Government who will review, amongst other things, previous experience, industry specific qualifications, Client Money Protection insurances and that the agent has a dedicated client bank account.

If you think that your current Glasgow Letting Agency is not compliant or registered, feel free to get in touch with our Property Management Team on [email protected] or 0141 248 8726.

Yates Hellier’s is registered on Scottish Letting Agent Register: our reference is LARN1812011.

I had a fantastic experience with Yates Hellier. I actually ended up using them by chance but I’m glad I did. I was very impressed by Ross. His knowledge of the market was excellent. He had clear understanding of the processes and great ability to convey to this to me as his client. We were updated throughout. Yates Hellier seemed to have a good vetting process for potentional buyers. If you are looking to achieve the best potentional for your property sale Yates Hellier is an excellent choice.

Yates Hellier are a letting agency who are direct and simple to deal with. 95% of the issues we have raised have been dealt with promptly, as they send over a workman to fix the problem.They do regular inspections ensuring the flat is in good condition, but also as an oppurtunity for us to raise issues. occasionaly things we have mentioned in person have fallen through the cracks, but mostly dealt with when reminded in an email.

I had an excellent experience of both the sale and letting of my property with Yates Hellier.I decided to sell the property after the rental. It had been left in immaculate condition. The marketing material, photos and video they produced were incredibly professional so i decided to talk to Yates Hellier about selling my property. I had previously got in the market leader in Glasgow to give me an estimate. I decided to take a chance on Yates Hellier as I liked everything about them- A young vibrant team and image who are friendly and knowledgable. I didn't feel like i was being lied to or forced into anything to get the sale, as i did with the other company.Ross and his team lined up 37 viewings in the very short time it was on the market. He held to his promise that he would get the very best price for my property. The offer way exceeded my expectation. We even decided to go for offer no 2 as the purchaser's were chain free and in a better position than the first offer. This was all driven by recommendation and the diligence relayed around each prospective buyers circumstance was exceptional.Having very successfully got the deal over the line, I half expected something to go wrong prior to the moving stage. Not so. Again Yates Hellier delivered first class agency in facilitating a mutually beneficial moving arrangement to both myself and the buyers.I wouldn't hesitate to use Yates Hellier in the future. If you are looking to sell your property I strongly advise you to call them and at least have them in for a quote. You will be glad you did.A big thank you to the Yates Hellier team for an outstanding result!

Yates Hellier have been managing my rental properties for a number of years now and are the most professional agents I have dealt with in the Glasgow area. They have consistently sourced good tenants and are excellent at keeping me informed of any maintenance issues and getting them resolved quickly.

Ross Yates came to our home to do a valuation on it as one of what we had planned as a number of valuations when considering putting our home on the market last year. (He had showed us around one of his properties we had put an offer on, and we were taken by his open and friendly manner that didn’t come with the hard sell that can often happen with estate agents.) After meeting with Ross and listening to his honest, considered and straightforward valuation and what we might wish to consider doing that might improve on it, we decided not to bother with other valuations and stuck with Ross and Yates Helier. Ross managed all the viewings, was very helpful and supportive and gave great advice throughout. Without any hesitation if we decided to move again we would be calling Ross and would suggest to anyone we knew who was considering selling to contact Ross at Yates Helier to hear what he has to say. We are very grateful for his dedication and support with his ‘Rolls Royce’ service. Also, Natalie in the office was very helpful and supportive, so it’s only fair for us to share some of that praise with her. Yates Helier - highly recommended and thank you! 😃
