Fine & Country has expanded to cover the whole of Scotland as it continues to builds on its well-established presence south of the border.
Agents Louisa Thomson and Andrew Jack will spearhead the ambitious growth plans, with both drawing upon significant market experience.
Thompson will build upon the success of her Fine & Country operation in Dumfries and Galloway to oversee 10 additional areas of Scotland. Meanwhile, experienced estate agent Jack, who has operated in the luxury property market for more than 20 years, will lead Fine & Country’s operations in Edinburgh.
Thompson took on Fine & Country’s only licence north of the border four years ago. She said: “Fine & Country has a great reputation internationally for the sale and marketing of beautiful homes in the upper quartile of the market, and we are excited to be extending the premium services our customers receive to the whole of Scotland.
“There’s been a genuine appetite in the south of the country for a high-quality, internationally renowned estate agency specialising in luxury homes and underpinned by true local knowledge – and we’re already receiving positive feedback from other parts of the Scotland eager for Fine & Country to come their way.”
Edinburgh has its own dedicated Fine & Country licence. Andrew is a long-term franchisee of Belvoir, which is part of The Property Franchise Group.
He commented: “Edinburgh is arguably the jewel in Scotland’s crown and is one of the most desirable places to live and work. Its unique mix of historic charm, modern living, and excellent transport links makes it a prime location for both local and international buyers.
“Fine & Country brings a level of service and a fresh approach to the premium market that will offer sellers and buyers something different from what’s currently available. Many of our target clients already engage with the brand through national publications and property sections, so we expect strong interest from the outset.
“Louisa and I have a great working relationship, and we are both extremely experienced at what we do, so it’s going to be great to work together to make sure Fine & Country is as successful in Scotland as it is elsewhere in the world.”
Jonathan Handford, the interim managing director at Fine & Country, added: “We have no doubt that Louisa, Andrew and their teams will make a significant impact across the country.”
