The Property Hub by McDougall McQueen is a new concept in property services with estate agency at the heart of the business, and a hub providing an integrated approach to everything connected to buying and selling properties.

As well as estate agency and conveyancing services of which McDougall McQueen are well known for, The Property Hub by McDougall McQueen will also be in a position to provide a ‘one-stop-shop’ for all related property services including financial services/mortgage advice and free property valuations.

John MacIntyre, partner, said: “Customers come to us because our experience and knowledge of the local area is second to none and we know the property market inside-out. We have always pointed our clients in the right direction for support services so it made sense for us to expand our offering for clients, without compromising the personal approach that McDougall McQueen is renowned for, with a chosen network of like-minded professionals. With our new office we have combined local experts within a central hub in order to give our customers a single point of contact for all their property requirements.”

Lisa Connolly, head of estate agency, will oversee the new Midlothian Hub in Dalkeith with the support of Kim Davidson, Lauren Montgomery and Alasdair Matheson, who combined have in excess of 40 years’ experience.

Ms Connolly said: “Whether you are a first-time buyer or a seasoned investor, we know that buying and selling property can be a stressful and all-encompassing process so we want to do what we can to make the system as seamless and quick as possible.

“At the Property Hub by McDougall McQueen clients will not only have open access to our professional property support network, but we will be hosting monthly workshops and events for them to understand all they need to about buying and selling property in Scotland.

“To celebrate the launch of our new Hub we are also offering one lucky seller the chance to win their estate agency and conveyancing fees on us – hopefully a great way to put a smile on someone’s face after the past couple of challenging years we have all faced.”
