Rental Agents in Glasgow

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good rental agent in Glasgow.

My partner and I are moving into rented accomodation and I will be renting out my flat (mortgaged). I am wanting to go through an agent but I will manage the property myself.

I have seen several agents and am having a hard time deciding who to go with. I was hoping someone here may have experience with letting agents in the Glasgow area and could help me out.

Many thanks.

    There's a thread by Scottishblondie on the Local (Scotland) forum page about just this subject. If you have a look there are a few suggestions I think.

    Haha I was just about to say I posted about this recently!

    I've had a couple of agents around - Cairns and Slater Hogg.

    I was very impressed with the guy from Cairns - he was actually the owner of the company and he was very helpful. If you decide to go managed their pricing is very reasonable.

    Slater Hogg were also great - and their branch is in a prime location for window adverts. They're a little more expensive, however.

    I also arranged an appointment with Countrywide, who did not turn up. As a result of that, I've discounted them as a possibility.

    I'm still looking (I'm not in a hurry at the moment) so if you find someone worth mentioning, please post back!
