What Our Clients Say About Us
Read what our clients have to say about their experience with MQ Estate Agents.
If I could give them more than five stars out of five, I would.
Before we fled to MQ, we made a catastrophic error by choosing an online estate agency.
We had spoken to Barry beforehand but thought the market was booming and we reckoned our house would sell nomatter who was selling it.
How wrong were we? The agency mistakenly ‘reduced’ our property’s value by £20,000 – just one of a catalogue of calamities. I found myself repeatedly saying to my partner ‘we should have listened to Barry!’
When we decided to cut ties with our original agent there was absolutely no debate about who we wanted to represent us and we were straight on the phone to MQ! Luckily (despite us not picking them in the first place) they welcomed us with open arms.
I should have known MQ are great. I had previously rented a property from them and found them to be absolutely outstanding.
Our house was only on the market with them for a couple of weeks when our flat sold for a price we were delighted with. Holly is an absolute superstar. Brilliant to work with, she also has a sparkling personality which gave me great confidence. Everyone in the office was professional, friendly and did exactly what they said they would do.
If I could give them more than five stars out of five, I would.
If I ever hear of anyone I know selling a property, I now tell them ‘Look no further than MQ
Catriona Mundill, selling a three-bed flat in Glasgow’s New Gorbals.
I would definitely recommend MQ...
My brother and I went into the property market in 2006, buying a flat in Glasgow that we could rent out. It was a time of interest-free mortgages and we thought we could keep it a few years, sell it on and maybe make 10 per cent on our investment. It didn’t work out like that.
The property barely moved in value, in fact it was valued at less than the £95,000 we paid for it 15 years ago. When we decided to sell it, we got in touch with a few estate agents including one we favoured, who didn’t even get back to us. We liked the price we were quoted for going with MQ, the photos looked good and I liked Barry’s approach.
He was much more positive than the other estate agents we spoke to. Some were very negative about the property while Barry gave us more confidence that it would sell. The more I visited, the more I realised that it was actually a nice flat. We got a good number of viewers, too. And it sold for the price Barry said it would, which was more than the other quotes I got.
I would definitely recommend MQ.

Overall? I’d give them a big thumbs-up...
I was so confident in MQ that I was happy to both buy and sell my house through them. The ‘buy’ side of things came when my partner and I bought a three-bed semi in Cumbernauld which MQ were selling. I was sufficiently impressed by their service that I asked Barry to come out to discuss selling the flat we were in. Everything was Hunky Dory. He’s a very pleasant man, very much on your level.
Other MQ staff were also very helpful. I dealt with Preeya, who was very friendly and Holly, who made me feel very comfortable. Overall? I’d give them a big thumbs-up. It’s the little things that count. We live in a cul-de-sac, so few people would be passing to notice the ‘For Sale’ sign in the garden. So MQ put it on the main road.
The flat went on the market and the very first person to see it, bought it. Now, I can’t wait to move in!

I got a good ‘vibe’ off Barry as soon as I met him...
I got a good ‘vibe’ off Barry as soon as I met him.
I had spoken to a number of other estate agents, one of whom seemed completely disinterested in selling my home. I had Googled ‘estate agents Glasgow’ and MQ came up with really positive reviews.
Barry was very down to earth, a master of the personal touch. I decided I would feel more comfortable going with a family-run firm. The sale itself? Well, I can honestly say it went through very quickly! I was glad I wasn’t inundated with communications.
The photographs were organised and the listing went on within a matter of days.
Preeya called me to say the first person who viewed the property wanted to make an offer – and that’s how it sold. I got what I was looking for, with the minimum of fuss. MQ do exactly what they say they will do. I’m renting now but if I ever go back into the property market, I hope I get to meet the MQ team again.

I’d happily recommend them, no problem.
We first met Barry when he was selling a property we were interested in last spring.
We didn’t buy it but when it came to selling our own place, later in the year, we remembered how professional he had been and his knowledge of the house. We asked MQ to sell our cottage flat but there were a few hiccups on the way – nothing to do with MQ.
The property we were buying had some issues to with the certification of historic cladding but it took Barry’s intervention to get it sorted out. Not only did he help sell our own place, he also helped the people who were selling to us.
We thought MQ were very good. There was no mucking about. It didn’t matter if we had a question to ask on a Monday morning or a Friday night – Holly and Preeya would be back to me in a flash.
The whole company is friendly and very professional, with no hidden costs. Our sale went through rapidly and we were delighted with the price we got. I’d happily recommend them, no problem.
