Sell with us
We love to listen to people’s stories and help them create new ones. We believe that vendors should receive a very personal service, as moving home is a big deal. They should receive a first-class service, with help and support above and beyond the norm.
Our mission is to help you move into your next chapter in life with an experience that you will never forget – for all the right reasons.
We don’t do our business by email – our business is done face-to-face or by phone.
From the beginning of your property journey to settlement we will be with you every step of the way.
Selling your home can be one of the most stressful things that you can do in your life, with the right people around you, guiding, supporting, and communicating, it doesn’t need to be.
Communication is fundamental to what we do. Unlike other traditional estate agencies, we are available for our clients (sellers and buyers) 7 days a week. We have experienced that call on a Saturday allowing us to sell our property over a competing one, by simply being available during the weekend to discuss it. We always capture our opportunities.
Marketing
Our award-winning marketing allows our properties to stand out.
The first step to selling your property is to get it noticed. It is usually your biggest asset, not a second-hand pair of shoes. That is why we use professional photographers and a top tier production company to showcase your property correctly.
In addition, we offer:
- Property Staging – both virtual and physical.
- Refurbishment before sale services.
We understand how to sell property and what to do to enhance its saleability and ultimately get you the best possible price for your property.
What our clients say.

James Milne was recommended to me by a neighbour, whose flat he had sold at beyond expected price. From the moment I called James, he was incredibly communicative, dedicated and attentive to my individual needs and requirements. James’ communication skills are above and beyond.
He kept in regular contact and kept me up to date with all aspects of the sale. James showed my property on my behalf. James was happy to talk over even the minutiae of the buying/selling procedure, keeping me right at every turn. This is why I’d assert that he actually surpasses his expected remit with clients.
I am inexperienced in buying and selling and James guided me with aspects which would technically be out with his exact agreement with me – and for this, I will always be incredibly grateful. I felt properly supported from start to finish.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend James to anyone who was looking to either buy or sell. I have already done so, with a few friends! James’ services are a cut above – his services truly are a positive investment.

Myself and my daughters decided it was time for a new chapter in our lives and part of this change was to sell our family home in order to move on with our lives.
Having used estate agents in the past I thought I know how it was going to work. I couldn’t have been more wrong!! I met Sandrina and and immediately knew she would be the one I would trust to help me on this new adventure.
We made an appointment for her to pop over and see the house, she sat and listened to our hopes and dreams and assured us all she would be able to get us there. Sandrina gave us pointers to help market the house. A week later the house was on the market and within days we had offers on the table. During the process Sandrina, did all the viewing on our behalf and kept me up to speed with the whole process and made the whole experience as stress free as possible.
She has,as she promised, allowed us to follow our dreams. She has a holistic approach to Estate Agency which sets her apart from the rest. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sandrina is you or anyone you know is considering a move.

James took over the selling of my property after months of little activity by an appointed major estate agent in Edinburgh. He was honest, on the case, easy to deal with and kept me fully updated. The property sold within the time frame he promised. I would suggest others who are stuck in a cycle of no-show viewings and having to chase their agent for action and updates, give James a chance.

Delighted to have worked with Sandrina! Some of her methods were a little out there and different that what I’ve dealt with in the past. BUT I can not stress fast my flat went on sale and sold. I was kept updated all the way and Sandrina’s track record speaks for itself but seeing is believing, truly amazing negotiator. If you want the best you can get don’t leave it to big companies and closing dates (out dated) let Sandrina do her thing and you won’t be disappointed. I’ve never had good news after good news before, offer after offer. That’s the Cecchini way! Thank you 🙏

I reached out to James Milne when my property sale fell through the day before completion. James listened to my concerns about my account handling. It was refreshing to be heard and have my concerns validated. The issues I raised included:
Incorrect marketing resulting in dozens of buyers who could not afford the property being given viewings wasting hours of my time
Several no shows due to no fact-finding taking place prior to appointment scheduling
Unsustainable offers being made when buyers did not have funds or a solicitor in place
Being pushed to a closing date with flimsy offers on the table
Not communicating with interested parties
My confidence in Estate Agents was at an all-time low when I got in touch with James, but his straight talking and in-depth knowledge of the market restored my confidence.
James was a pleasure to work with, fast, reliable and trustworthy. He took the pain out of the situation and restored my faith that there are great estate agents out there (if you know where to look). The property was sold within 2 weeks of going back to market and I didn’t have to see a single buyer, bliss! I would not hesitate to recommend James; he has a unique skill set that many estate agencies are now lacking. I will work with James again in the future and keep him in my trusted contacts.

Really happy with the service we received from Cecchini Property! I loved that we had a WhatsApp group with Sandrina, Cheryl and my husband and I so we all knew what was going on and any questions we had were responded to very quickly. It was also great to leave the viewings to Sandrina who done a great job at promoting our house and as a result getting a price that we were extremely happy with. I’d recommend Cecchini Property to anyone looking to sell their house.

We were with another estate agent, but we lost both our sale and purchase due to the terrible way the firm handled things. We received a letter from James offering his services and calling him was the best decision we ever made! James doesn’t give 100% he gives 150% He is extremely knowledgeable, tenacious, dedicated and works so hard I doubt he sleeps at night. He knew the problems we had previously with the other firm and was determined to show not all estate agents are the same and he certainly did that. He is very easy to talk to and his previous role as a property developer is also beneficial. James promised us he would sell our flat and find our perfect house. He doggedly perused every potential buyer. By some miracle the house we were hoping to buy before (the one we lost due to the other estate agents) returned to the market after the sale following our also feel through. The person who is our buyer originally only wanted a virtual tour however James persuaded him to come view and despite viewing six flats beforehand he put in an offer. If James had not persuaded him that it was best to view, there is little doubt that the purchaser would have not chosen our flat. We can never thank James enough for all his hard work and for helping us achieve our hope of buying our wee cottage in North Queensferry I would happily recommend James to anyone who is looking for an honest estate agent who will always have his client’s interest at heart. Our only regret is not finding James at the start for if we had we are certain that our sale would not have fallen through, and we be in our new home now.

Two weeks and four days on from initial marketing, my house is sold! Never, did I imagine, I would get over home report price, but I did! Great advice, guidance and communication from Sandrina on first meeting, as well as throughout the process. Professional and engaging with a wealth of knowledge of the locality, meant she could answer all questions viewers needed to know. Viewings were conducted by Sandrina too, giving feedback immediately. Having bought and sold fifteen homes in adulthood this was the most stress free. Now looking for a new home to love. Thank you Sandrina.

We had the pleasure of using Cecchini Property in the selling of our Prestwick property.
Sandrina was from the outset so professional, knowledge and super friendly. She did an outstanding job in marketing our property and exceeded our expectations. Myself and Ann couldn’t recommend Sandrina highly enough. Thanks again 👌
Matthew and Chloe Taylor
James has been great from the get-go with Chloe and I. He is friendly, reliable, hardworking and willing to go that extra mile to ensure his clients are successful in selling their home. James spent time getting to know what Chloe and I wanted from the sale of our house and left no stone unturned! Would highly recommend and have done already.
