Choosing a Property Factor in Edinburgh
With 56 registered factors serving Edinburgh, choosing the right one matters. Here's what to look for:
- Tribunal track record — 71% of factors in Edinburgh have a clean or low-risk tribunal record. Check case history before committing.
- Customer reviews — 51 of 56 factors have published ratings, averaging 3.6★. Note that ratings reflect the company as a whole, not a specific local office. Look at both the score and volume of reviews.
- Written Statement of Services — every factor must provide a WSS detailing fees, services, and complaints procedures. Compare these before deciding.
- Local presence — factors based in Edinburgh may offer faster response times for emergencies and inspections.
All property factors in Scotland must be registered on the Scottish Property Factor Register and comply with the Property Factors Code of Conduct. If you're unhappy with your current factor, read our step-by-step switching guide. Learn how we calculate tribunal risk ratings →
