I rented from A Flat In Town from February 2020 to July 2020 for work. They were fantastic letting agents and were always helpful whenever any issues came up, and replied quickly to emails. The staff are attentive, understanding and friendly. The deposit was returned very quickly and all documentation (EPC certificates, inventory etc) was sent promptly both at move in and move out dates.
In particular the cleaning list was very well detailed which was good so both parties know what is required upon leaving a flat. I would highly recommend them for their professionalism and quality of accomodation and I would rent from them again!

Fantastic experience. Myself and my flatmate were in desperate need of a short-term let and found Lance to be quick to respond, very helpful, and overall solved our situation with apparent ease, but importantly he maintained communication along the way and never left us hanging like some other letting agencies. The flat itself was clean, modern, great central location, and overall met all our expectations. Would highly recommend Lance and A Flat In Town.

For the month of May 2019 we let a flat on Rose Street in Edinburgh. We were delighted with the flat: it was charming and its location was perfect. Many of the major attractions of the city---the Royal Mile, Princes Street Gardens, art galleries--- along with restaurants, shopping, grocery stores and public transportation were within an easy walk.
The size of the flat was just right and we found it clean and well maintained, with all the amenities we needed to make the stay pleasant. We live in the United States and had never stayed abroad for a month. As we arranged to let the flat, the staff at A Flat in Town was consistently helpful and accommodating, patiently answering questions. When we arrived there were a few minor hiccups (connecting to WiFi, having lightbulbs replaced) that Lance quickly corrected. We rate our experience with A Flat in Town a 5 out of 5 stars and have told family and friends about their wonderful service. We would definitely use their services again.

Have been applying for a flat through this agent (fingers crossed), and throughout the process they have been speedy repliers and my point of contact Louise has gone above and beyond her call of duty when chasing up references on my behalf. Hopefully we get the flat and these good folks will be my letting agents for years to come :D

Would recommend careful consideration before letting your property with this business: became apparent after a number of years letting my property with them that they had become very complacent ( unable to follow up outstanding issues etc and unable to provide breakdown of costs for work they had provided quote for). Level of rental income they obtained was also substantially below what new leasing agent obtained/ general market when o carried out further research myself. Overall, would avoid.

I had an excellent experience with this agency. I was looking for a short term let as I was coming to Edinburgh as a student for a semester abroad. The flat was exactly as they had advertised it and everything from communication, signing the letting agreement and staying at the flat was great! I highly recommend choosing this agency when looking for a let in Edinburgh.

Having rented from a flat in town for over 2 years I can honestly say they have been an absolute pleasure to deal with. All the staff are extremely helpful professional and friendly. They are without doubt the best landlords I have ever had. If you get the chance to rent from this company then grab it with both hands!

We were one of the first Owners to join A Flat in Town when Katrina and Susanna set up their new venture 2005. Nothing was, and is too much trouble for their team. Their team are charming, and efficient, as are the Contractors they provide for plumbing/electrical and joinery work. We have been delighted with their service since inception. We had a New Town flat for 12 years until Jan of this year and it was always let in our period of ownership with delightful tenants.
Our cottage nearby has also been let continuously since we purchased in Jan 2008. I have recommended them to two friends who let their flats via their agency and they have been delighted with the service provided.

We rented out our flat with A Flat in Town for 10 years. They were first class in every respect. They found good tenants for us. Anytime we needed to make any repairs, AFIT found good tradesmen quickly at a competitive price. They kept our tenants happy, they took our mind completely off renting the property, whch, for a landlord is the main point of any rental agency. They look after both tenants and landlords equally well. I know all our tenants found AFIT very easy to deal with. I can highly recommend A Flat in Town.

We had a fabulous experience with A Flat in Town from beginning to end. We rented a lovely 1 bedroom in central Edinburgh for 8 months and they were to great to deal with from the application stage, as landlords and then on departure as well. Lucy is always so friendly and warm in communication (which really makes a difference as it’s definitely not always the case). I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to rent a flat in Edinburgh and we’d definitely use them again.

Excellent letting agents and I would highly recommend them.
Got a good choice of properties to choose from and excellent communications maintained throughout the tenure of the let. Very nice people to deal with and would use them again in the future. A shout out to Melanie who was my main contact for the most of the time for making everything so easy ..
