ELC Sales & Lettings

12/09/2026

When was the last time you checked what your property could rent for?

Many landlords only think about rental value when a property becomes vacant. But a valuation can be useful even when a property is occupied.

It gives you a current benchmark and helps you understand whether your property is positioned correctly within the local market.

It doesn't automatically mean increasing the rent. It means knowing where you stand.

Haven't reviewed your property's rental value recently? Ask ELC for a local rental valuation.

Need a tenant, but what to manage the property yourself? 🏠

Our Tenant Find Only service is designed for landlords who want professional help getting their property on the market and finding the right tenant, without committing to full property management.

From preparing your property for marketing to finding and securing a suitable tenant, ELC can help with the letting process while you retain control of the ongoing management.

Confused between letting & selling?

Sometimes, the right decision isn't simply “How much rent can I get?”

It might be: Should I let it? Should I sell it? Or should I consider both?

With ELC, we can help you understand your property's letting potential.
Through Knightbain, you can explore its sales potential.

Looking at both sides of the market can help you make a more informed decision about what works best for you.

🎶 3 records. Definitely not your average estate agent playlist.

We asked Arran from the ELC team to pick his three must-have records while visiting Thorne Records in Bruntsfield.

His choices?

💿 Korn — Korn
💿 System of a Down — Toxicity
💿 Angine de Poitrine — Vol II

A slightly heavier selection than you might expect from a property page. 😅

But that's kind of the point.

Music, like the places we live, is personal. Whether you're into metal, jazz, hip-hop, indie, classical or something so obscure that even your mates have no idea what you're listening to — there's room for it here.

And that's one of the things we love about Bruntsfield. Independent businesses, different tastes, plenty of personality and a neighbourhood that doesn't feel like it was designed from a template.

🎧 What's your three?

How do you HMO a property? 👀

It’s not as simple as adding a few extra bedrooms.

This property has undergone a number of upgrades to bring it up to the required HMO standards — including fire doors and intumescent smoke seals, a mains-wired alarm system, emergency lighting, fire signage, fire-rated glass and more.

But the biggest change?

We converted the living room into an additional bedroom.

With every bedroom exceeding 10m², the layout allowed us to do this while remaining compliant — creating the potential for significantly increased rental income without extending the property.

It’s a great example of what can happen when you look beyond the existing layout and understand what a property could become.
