"Avoid, Terrible experience. we stayed at 38 henderson's court and had nothing but problems start to finish. We were given zero contact with the landlord so were forced to go through FBR seed, had any maintenance issues cropped up it would either take so long or the job would be half done that..."

"Great people. David Platt and Jenni Douglas have been particularly helpful to us. So good to have people who know what they're doing, and bring clarity, to guide us through the difficult and boring paperwork required for agriculture. Thank you very much."

"Terrible company. Arranged to view a property with them, they were fully aware of us coming over from another country for the appointment and they cancelled on the day of the viewing. So thanks for a waste of our time and money, Craig. Here's hoping someone treats you with the same lack of regard."

Written Statement of Services

We don't have FBR Seed's Written Statement of Services on file yet. Under the Property Factors (Scotland) Act 2011, every registered factor must provide a WSS to homeowners. It should cover:

  • Management fees — the annual or monthly charge and what it includes
  • Services provided — common area maintenance, insurance, building repairs
  • Emergency and complaints procedures — response times and how to escalate
  • Financial arrangements — how funds are held, invoicing, and reserve funds
  • Termination terms — notice periods and the process for changing factors

If you're a homeowner managed by FBR Seed, you should have received a copy of their WSS. If not, you can request one directly — they are legally required to provide it. Have a copy? Send it our way and we'll add the details to this profile.

The WSS is a legal requirement under the Property Factors (Scotland) Act 2011.
