Solicitor estate agent Simpson & Marwick has rejoined the Aberdeen Solicitors' Property Centre (ASPC) and moved its Aberdeen office into the city's West End.
The firm, which returned to the Aberdeen market in 2025, will begin listing homes with ASPC later this month. It has moved from Hill of Rubislaw to 20 Rubislaw Terrace, a short walk from ASPC's Holburn Street centre.
The Aberdeen estate agency team is led by Senior Associate Nikki Hempseed, a former Aberdein Considine branch manager, who joined Simpson & Marwick last year. Group Managing Director Rob Aberdein was previously an equity partner at the same firm.
Mr Aberdein said the moves reflected growing confidence in the North-east economy.
"It feels like the North-east is going again," he said. "Jackdaw getting the green light, real optimism around Rosebank and the council's investment in Union Street and the beach all point the same way. This city has a bright future and we want to be part of it."
He added: "Moving into the heart of the city and rejoining ASPC puts us back at the centre of the Aberdeen property market, and puts our clients' homes where Aberdeen buyers look first."
Lorna Coutts, Chief Executive of ASPC, said: “ASPC are very pleased to welcome Simpson and Marwick as members of ASPC – a real vote of confidence in the Aberdeen Market.”
Simpson & Marwick Chief Executive Sean Nicol said: "ASPC is still where Aberdeen buyers start their search, so rejoining gives our sellers the widest possible audience from day one. Our new West End office gives the team a base that matches our ambition for the North-east."
ASPC, founded more than 50 years ago, was the UK's first solicitors' property centre and now markets homes for more than 60 member firms.
Simpson & Marwick was founded in Edinburgh in 1886 and marks its 140th anniversary this year. Its lawyers have historically been involved in some of Scotland's most significant legal matters, including the Piper Alpha inquiry and the Lockerbie bombing proceedings.
