What we do.

We help investors through the whole buy to let process - all the way from sourcing the best on and off-market properties, making offers, overseeing the conveyancing process right through to hooking you up with the best letting agents in the market. We also offer renovation and furnishing services at truly competitive prices for clients who just don't want the hassle. Put simply, we take all the stress out of it.

The Edinburgh Property market is renowned as one of the UK's top residential property investment hot spots with a vibrant professional and student demographic plus a world-beating tourist economy. It's hard to beat in terms of rental and capital growth prospects over the next 5-10 years.

We have access to both on and off-market opportunities built up through our strong relationships in the local Edinburgh property market

How Does it work?

We will talk through investment hot spots and our recommended property style and size to focus on. We can also introduce investors to an accountant, solicitor, financial advisor, insurance broker and furnishing specialist so they have a great team to help them through their investment purchasing journey.

Recent Testimonials

Investor, Dubai - September 2021

I got in touch with Dave from Property Bee after reading about their services through Umega with whom I had been working with after moving to the UAE with work and becoming an accidental landlord.

Kicked things off with an informal chat over zoom giving some info on what I was looking whilst Dave gave an overview of the current market, anticipated ROI and additional services (beyond the search and advice) that Property Bee could offer .
Within a couple of days Property Bee were providing reports from prospective properties including pros and cons .

Happy to report that within 3 and a half weeks of our initial zoom we successfully had an offer accepted on a fantastic property in Leith.

After securing the new property we were keen to turn it around and have it made ready and available to put on the rental market as soon as possible which is where again we turned to Dave and Property Bee who were fantastic in furnishing the place to a very high and cool standard all for a great rate.

Being overseas it was great to have someone like Dave in communication ,updating and providing us on every step of the way.

Within one day of the property going on the market we had received offers from 3 different tenants , 2 of whom had offered over and above the asking rental rate.
Highly recommended !

Property Bee 'after sourcing' client services.

Small to Medium sized Rennovations

For properties requiring refurbishment we can manage the whole process using our team of trusted partners. We have combined over 30 years of residential project management experience. Extra fees apply.

Bespoke Cost Effective Furnishing

We do things a little differently at Property Bee; we don't think you need to break the bank to achieve a high-end aspirational look.

We are unique in that we source pre-loved, 'nearly new' high quality furniture from manufactures such as Made.com, Habitat, John Lewis and Next, saving you thousands off retail prices. You get the 'top-end' look for much less - and quality, longer lasting furniture.

Prices: 1 Bed flat: £2250

2 Bed flat: £2750
