Quicklet has expanded its presence in Edinburgh with the acquisition of the rental portfolio of Linmac and Investment Lettings.
The properties will be managed by Albany Lettings, Quicklet’s Edinburgh-based operation, enhancing the group’s portfolio and strengthening its position in the Scottish market.
Co-founded by Gavin McEvoy and Dermot O’Hanlon, Quicklet has grown through a mix of organic growth and targeted acquisitions, with this latest deal part of its ongoing strategy to grow operations while maintaining consistent management standards.
Gavin McEvoy, co-founder of Quicklet, said: “This is a continuation of the growth we have been making over the last few years.
“Our focus has always been on building a business that properly manages assets with clear processes and strong operating standards.
“Expanding into Edinburgh through Albany Lettings allows us to build on that, while keeping the service consistent for landlords and tenants on the ground.”
Dermot O’Hanlon, co-founder of Quicklet, said: “For us growth isn’t just about size. It’s about building a team and structure that can properly support assets at scale.
“Each acquisition is approached with care, with a focus on continuity and ensuring landlords and tenants do not feel disruption as the portfolio grows.”
As part of the change, Linmac Senior Property Manager Angie McIntosh will be joining the Albany Lettings team, bringing a wide range of knowledge to the properties, landlords and tenants she currently supports.
This acquisition follows a series of recent portfolio additions within the wider Quicklet Group, including Robert Wilson Estate Agency in Northern Ireland (180 properties) and Keon Property in Belfast (86 properties) in September 2024.
