Founded in 1843, Blackwood & Smith have been proudly serving the people of Peebles and the surrounding area for generations. We have a team of five qualified solicitors able to provide a range of legal services including the purchase and sale of residential property, the purchase, sale and leasing of commercial property, preparation of Wills, Living Wills and Powers of Attorney, advice on executries and trusts, employment law, and family law including separation and divorce.
We also have a busy estate agency office from which we sell property throughout Peebles, Innerleithen, West Linton, Cardrona, Eddleston and the surrounding area. There is a lot more to Estate Agency than just taking photographs and placing an online advert. Housing markets are very local and it is essential that you therefore have advice from an expert on the local property market.
As a Firm we deal with many hundreds of transactions every year, both sales and purchases, estate agency and conveyancing. We have been buying and selling property in Peeblesshire and surrounding areas - including the rest of the Scottish Borders, Edinburgh and the Lothians - for generations and know the market here inside out.

Our community is at the heart of our firm and has been for over 175 years.
It is a fundamental part of our business and all of our partners and the majority of our other staff live within the Peeblesshire area.
Indeed, most even grew up here.
The majority of our clients live and work in our local area, and, in our view, it is one of the best places to do so.
We therefore feel it is important that we, as a business, give back to the community who supports us.
For several years now we have waived the fees which we would normally charge clients for notarising or certifying documents in order that clients can instead make a donation to our chosen charity partner.

Struan and Marisa (and everyone else we had contact with) were extremely helpful when we were purchasing our first home. They talked us through the whole process, kept us up to date with regular emails, and we never needed to chase them for a response. They made the whole process stress free, and we would recommend them wholeheartedly!
