Selling your home in Edinburgh: creative marketing, quantifiable results.

Our in-house creative team doesn’t just take photos — they build a campaign around your home, the way a brand agency would for a product launch. That’s not a metaphor: it’s why Niksen properties consistently sell for 104% of Home Report value in an average of 29 days, ahead of the wider market.

How we sell a home

Here’s what that looks like in practice.

  1. 01

    Professional photography and videography shot to show how the home lives, not just how it looks.

  2. 02

    A targeted social, PR and marketing push to put your listing in front of the right buyers, not just more buyers.

  3. 03

    A dedicated agent from valuation through to completion.

How selling a home works in Scotland

  1. 01

    Free valuation

    We visit, value the home and show you how we would sell it. Book a free valuation.

  2. 02

    Home Report

    A Home Report must be in place before your home is marketed. Home Reports explained.

  3. 03

    Photography and film

    Our in-house team shoots the home to show how it lives, not just how it looks.

  4. 04

    Launch

    The listing goes live with a campaign across the portals, social media and our own buyers.

  5. 05

    Notes of interest and closing date

    Buyers note their interest through their solicitor. If several do, we set a closing date for offers.

  6. 06

    Missives and date of entry

    Once you accept an offer, the solicitors exchange missives, the contract, and agree the date of entry.

Homes people actually loved deserve to be sold that way.

Every home we list has had real care and money poured into it by the people who lived there. Our mission is simple: make sure that effort is rewarded with a sale that reflects it — not undersold by average photography and a generic listing.

Why choose Niksen

Every agent has skin in the game

A marketing team most agencies don't have in house

Photography, videography, social and PR under one roof, working on your home specifically, not templated for every listing on the street.
