Was great he done fab
I would recommend Kai to anyone that’s selling a property
Wel manered wel dressed
Was such a lovely chap to deal with
As you can imagine, it’s definitely a stressful time indeed.
After having a visit from Graham Le Mar to my house for evaluation, and going through all my anxiety’s about how to approach the market - Graham put my anxiety's to rest.
I can say that the overall experience with KnightBain was excellent & handled professionally with Gragam.
I would definitely recommend a chat with him ☑️👍
One thing that stood out early on was his approach to valuation. Kai gave me an honest, realistic figure rather than inflating it to win my business, which I later learned is a tactic some agents use. It might sound appealing at first, but overpriced homes sit on the market and that serves nobody. His integrity there set the tone for everything that followed.
Viewings were handled brilliantly. Every single request was accommodated without hesitation, and Kai was always there early. He was friendly and patient throughout, and noticeably spent more time listening to us than talking at us, which is rarer than it should be.
He was also consistently professional in how he spoke about other agents and agencies, never a bad word, which I found quietly impressive.
Communication was excellent from start to finish. Texts and calls were always answered quickly, and Kai kept me informed at every stage without me having to chase.
The result spoke for itself: an excellent offer secured, and a process that felt far less stressful than I had anticipated. I would not hesitate to recommend Kai.
A huge thank you to Kai for his professionalism, excellent communication, knowledge, and support throughout the entire process. Selling a home can be incredibly stressful, but Kai made everything feel much smoother and kept us informed every step of the way.
He is extremely professional, knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely excellent at what he does. His dedication, attention to detail, and calm, reassuring manner truly stood out, and thanks to his hard work we successfully sold our home.
I would highly recommend Kai to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. He is a true professional and a real credit to KnightBain.
Thank you again for everything.

Buying FAQs
In Scotland, a property transaction becomes legally binding when missives are concluded.
Missives are a series of formal letters exchanged between the buyer’s and seller’s solicitors. Once all terms are agreed and the final missive is accepted, both parties are legally committed to the transaction.
This usually happens weeks before the entry date, which is very different from England, where binding only occurs at exchange.
Once missives are concluded:
• Neither party can withdraw without serious financial penalties
• The entry date is fixed
• The price and conditions are locked in
This early certainty is one of the key advantages of the Scottish system.
In Scotland, there is no single contract document to sign in the way there is elsewhere in the UK. Instead:
• The buyer signs a formal written offer at the start of the process
• The seller does not usually sign a contract at all
• The binding agreement is created through the exchange and conclusion of missives by the solicitors
You may also sign:
• A disposition (the document transferring ownership) closer to the entry date
• Mortgage paperwork if you are buying with finance
Your solicitor will guide you through exactly what needs signed and when.
Mortgage funds are usually released:
• The working day before the agreed entry date, or
• On the morning of the entry date itself
Your solicitor requests the funds once:
• Missives are concluded
• All lender conditions are satisfied
• Insurance is confirmed On the entry date, funds are transferred to the seller’s solicitor, keys are released, and ownership legally changes hands.
Your solicitor will coordinate this process and keep you informed of timings.
