We had a great experience buying our home through Paddy and his team. We felt so looked after through the whole process and they were always happy to answer any questions we had and we felt they were really on side. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to either buy or sell their home - you will not be disappointed !

Excellent service from the Patons team; immediate, efficient and personal attention, meticulous follow-through. Diverse range of high-profile properties. That said, where Patons score above all other agents, is in the warmth of their interaction with the client. From the first moment of contact, I felt we were in good hands and that the team genuinely wanted to find us a home. Our 'man on the ground, Tom Parker was quite simply superb: friendly, honest, informed, practical and intuitive. In short, dealing with Patons is like dealing with friends.

From start to finish Paton & Co hold your hand through the sale and conveyancing of your property. Chloe is very supportive and nothing fazes her. Paddy is Mr Positive with a can do attitude. Katie is always available on WhatsApp for the unexpected and Tamara is Ms Due Diligence. All in all, a winning team that gets your house sold with professionalism, honesty and a will to get the best outcome for you as the vendor. I highly recommend Paton & Co.

Fantastic service from the team at Paton and Co, offering a professional yet friendly and personal approach. Buying and selling a house can be a stressful experience, but Chloe and Tamara were always on hand to answer any questions and offer guidance/ support throughout the sale, and the whole process was seamless. I would highly recommend Paton and Co.

I recently sold my cottage through Paton and Co with Chloe as my point of contact. She was very professional, steering me through the whole process with excellent advice. I deliberately didn’t go with one of the better known agencies as they tend to over promise and under deliver, Chloe got the price absolutely right and I received 2 offers, which I was hoping for, within 3 weeks of it being marketed. If I sell a property again I’d definitely use them.

My wife and I recently bought a house. We viewed the property with Chloe who was very helpful. All our questions were answered. She and Tamara contacted the vendor several times on our behalf and promptly provided information we had sought. The staff liased with our solicitor and our surveyor enabling the purchase to proceed smoothly. We were very satisfied with the service provided .

A very competent and professional service from start to finish even during some challenging times which came with our particular house purchase. Paddy was always amenable and helpful, and Tamara keep things running smoothly from the office. We are now, thanks to the team at Paton and Co living our best lives in the Scottish Borders.

We would highly recommend Paton & Co as selling agents for your property. Paddy couldn’t have done any more for us from start to finish. He has a great team behind him, very knowledgeable, approachable, super friendly and always with a smile! Thank you ALL for making our sale so pleasurable under our sad circumstances.

Paddy exuded professionalism from the start - so glad we took his advice and opted for the drone footage and virtual walk around package - we really think that they were powerful marketing tools and certainly assisted our buyers in their decision to purchase the property. As a result, a sale was swiftly agreed.
With Tamara efficiently managing the task of keeping solicitors focussed, completion of the transaction (date of entry) followed in an agreed timeframe.
We have no hesitation in fully recommending Paton and Co.

Tamara showed us a couple of houses and was always punctual.she kept in contact but was not intrusive. Once we had decided she guided us through the Scottish system , recommended a solicitor who was lovely. There were a few issues along the way but once Tamara got involved they were usually promptly sorted. I would thoroughly recommend Tamara from Paton + co Berwick. So happy with our new house.

We had the pleasure of experiencing Paton & Co services both as a buyer and a seller. We were so impressed with how the Paton team engaged with us when we bought our current home that we had no hesitation in requesting their assistance to sell our old house.

Paddy, Tamara and the team are friendly and professional which makes working with them easy and enjoyable.

We really appreciated all the expert guidance provided throughout the sales process and we will happily recommend to anyone selling or looking to buy a property.

We were recommended Paton and Co. by friends and we were very pleased that we took their advice. The whole of the team were very helpful and responsive. Communications were first class, they understood our needs and genuinely wanted the best for us. Highly recommended to anyone needing an estate agent. We wouldn't go anywhere else.

Paton & Co were the only agents we considered for marketing our property as they have a proven record in the locale and achieve sales; they were very prompt, professional and achieved a superb price. The feedback at times could have been more proactive, but this was more due to the poor communication coming up the chain from Scottish transactions involved rather than anything attributable to Paddy’s team per se. Overall, would recommend and certainly use again, as the team work and mediate well with both seller and buyer. The team are friendly, approachable and client-oriented and Paddy knows his market. We are very thankful to them for bringing our sale to a successful close.

I can not recommend Paddy and his team highly enough. We sold our house with them and they provided an excellent service. Their knowledge of the market is second to none. They were able to arrange everything from our EPC to conveyor. We were not living in the property at the time, but Paddy and his team were able to assist at every step making the process quick and easy. We followed all advice and were able to secure a good price in difficult market conditions. Our property went from on the market to completed in 2 months. This would have not been achievable without their support and local knowledge.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all of the team at Paton & Co for their help, guidance, and support with selling my cottage. They were thoroughly professional, friendly, and attentive, from the very first meeting right through to completion of the sale. The personal hands-on service that they provide is exemplary; nothing is too much trouble.

Thank you Paton & Co! Your expert market knowledge, fantastic communication and tailored marketing strategy secured a buyer for our home in less than a week from taking the house to market. Your continued help to manage and navigate the sales process once in solicitors hands was invaluable. Thank you, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Paton & Co.

We wholeheartedly agree with other testimonials about Paton & Co providing a personal and good old-fashioned service which is becoming rather a rarity these days. We were informed about Paton & Co through the owner of a holiday let in the Scottish Borders whilst we were holidaying there.

The whole experience from start to finish was superb, Paddy is an absolute pleasure to deal with; reassuring, professional and very approachable if you needed to ask any questions or needed advice. He even recommended a local removal firm, solicitor and surveyor, all of which have also been extremely efficient, professional and approachable. We also would like to extend our thanks to Tamara who was also brilliant. From the initial contact visiting us, to valuation, photography, website information, communication etc we could not fault Paton & Co at all. They were right with us and helping out until completion. We would not hesitate to recommend Paton & Co to anyone looking to sell or buy and also an estate agent who is very fair and extremely knowledgeable with their valuations. Thank you so much, Paddy, Tamara and the team

We used Paton & Co to sell our property. Paddy was great to work with and we had full confidence in his approach to marketing and his knowledge and expertise of the local property market. What we especially liked was he understands no two client or house is the same so you have to adapt constantly which takes hard work, dedication and great communication. Paddy did his job brilliantly and we would not use any other estate agent if we were selling in the future.

I was introduced to Paddy a few years ago. I was immediately impressed with his professionalism, understanding of client needs and his market knowledge.
When the time came to sell my house I had no hesitation in turning to Paton & Co.
My sale process ran very smoothly and Paddy was on hand whenever I needed him. Trust and confidentiality were important elements for me and Paddy wholly fulfilled those aspects throughout.
I have the highest regard for Paddy and his team at Paton & Co.

I cannot recommend Paton and Co highly enough. Paddy understood what we were looking for in our family home and showed endless patience in helping us find it. His extensive knowledge of the market allowed us to see many properties before they went to market. This, combined with his honest and personable manner, made the process much less stressful and allowed us to secure a very special home.

I would highly recommend Paton & Co.
Many thanks
