Solicitor-estate agency, Coulters is celebrating a record year of business after reporting a 30 per cent profit on turnover, exceeding the industry average, a year after merging with HBJ Property.

Coulters has bolstered its sales team with the addition of three new employees. Amanda Kerley, Jamie Stevenson and Shaughan Baynard have all joined in the roles of Sales Administrator, and will be based at the company’s offices in Stockbridge and Marchmont.

Mark Coulter, Chief Executive, said, “We have achieved really strong results and cemented Coulters as a customer-focused, hard-working and ambitious estate-agency, with an expert understanding of the Edinburgh market. Bringing together two companies can prove challenging, but we have become a stronger and more rounded business, with a clear direction.”
