Top notch service from Catherine! We asked her to be highly communicative, and she delivered exactly that by keeping us informed and responsive throughout the process. She is also very helpful and knowledgeable about the local market and the full process of buying and selling a home.

We highly recommend Catherine to anyone looking for a professional, trustworthy, and genuinely caring estate agent.

Throughout our home search, Catherine was incredibly helpful, patient, and always willing to go the extra mile. She took the time to understand what we were looking for and provided honest advice without ever making us feel pressured.

Although we ultimately purchased a different property because our circumstances changed, this was in no way a reflection of the exceptional service Catherine provided. We are truly grateful for all her support and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

It was such a pleasure working with Cath Rennie at R&R Real Estate to buy my first home. She was incredibly knowledgable, patient with all of my questions, and listened to exactly what I was looking for. She guided me every step of the way and made the process incredibly seamless. I highly recommend Cath for anyone looking to buy, sell or rent - her professionalism was exceptional. Thank you Cath!

I absolutely loved working with Catherine, she is the most honest agent I have met and she didn't want to just sell me whatever we found together… She told me when it was in a bad area, or if it has been built badly. We have finally found the house of my dreams and it was worth waiting for 😍 thank you team for just being amazing! So excited to get my keys to my new house

Catherine Rennie successfully helped me to sell my house, and was always supportive when I was uncertain of the way forward.\ Catherine listened to what I expected from the sale, but advised me to lower the selling price as it was not feasible in the house sales' climate at the time and in the area.\ Catherine always had my interests at heart and was professional in every respect to prospective clients and to me.\ Thank you, Catherine!
