How we rank the best estate agents in Aberdeen
Every estate agent on AgentSeeker's Aberdeen rankings is assessed on three pillars — the
same three that actually affect your sale outcome, not the reviews and awards that often fill
competitor rankings.
-
Asking-price achievement — the ratio of sold price to original asking price
across each agent's recent Aberdeen transactions. Higher is better; 97%+ is the
national benchmark we score against.
-
Average sale time — days from listing to completion on the agent's recent
instructions. Faster is better, with the local average days being the typical Aberdeen pace.
-
Committed fee transparency — agents who publish a locked-in fee upfront
rank higher than those who quote a range and negotiate later. In Aberdeen, the typical
fee sits around 2.3% as a committed total (no VAT added on top).
We pull performance data from Land Registry, PropertyData and our own transaction records —
not marketing claims.
