EG’s Most Active Agent competition winners
Edinburgh

Dealmaker: Steven Clarke, Shepherd Commercial
“The Edinburgh commercial market has seen a more challenging year in 2019 compared with 2017/18.
“We have seen a significant change in the retail sector at both local and national levels, with the majority of the high streets moving from product-led to service-led tenants. In turn, this has resulted in a high turnover of tenants and also an increase in change of use applications towards service-led uses.
