Paul Hilton, CEO of ESPC, said: “We are delighted to welcome DGSPC agents to ESPC and are keen to ensure a smooth transition for sellers, agents and house hunters alike.

“ESPC has grown significantly in recent years to market properties not only across Edinburgh, the Lothians and Fife, but also in the Borders, as well as central and west of Scotland. We’re excited to now include Dumfries and Galloway properties on ESPC as well.

“A huge thank you to all the staff and agents who have worked tirelessly to ensure the success of DGSPC. We will continue working hard to provide the best possible service to property buyers and sellers across Dumfries and Galloway and highlight the benefits of the solicitor estate agent and SPC model in these areas.”

Karen Norman-Thorpe, a DGSPC board member, said: “DGSPC is delighted to be joining ESPC. This marks an exciting collaboration that will allow DGSPC member firms the opportunity to offer their clients a cost-effective and forward-moving online advertising platform.

“The DGSPC Committee would like to thank all member firms for their continued support and we’re looking forward to this new venture.”
