David Lane and his team at Machin Lane in Rochester have been excellent agents for selling my mothers bungalow for her.
If you want an accurate valuation to ensure your property sells in a timely period, achieving its full realistic value then look no further.
It’s easy to get over enthusiastic on price with other agents tempting you but be prepared to probably reduce or for your property to hang around.
David is very attentive and did his very best for us at all stages.
He works hard to ensure the good professional reputation of his company and he clearly knows the Medway housing market very accurately.

Absolutely first class service from David and his team. Straightforward, proactive, prompt and pleasant. By far the most valued party out of all the estate agents, lawyers and other professionals we dealt with.

I have been purchasing a house though Machin Lane. Having been in contact with many estate agents over time and using one myself for the sale of my property, the service i have received from David at Machin Lane has surpassed all others. They even stepped up and supported me when my own Estate Agent had let me down, giving me more information on my own sale then my estate agent. I highly recommend Machin Lane and if i were to sell again they would be the Estate Agent i would use.

This is the second time I have used these Estate Agents, the first being 24 years ago! Still the same friendly welcome and unfailing, calm helpfulness, Hopefully I won't want to move again but if I did, I wouldn't hesitate to make Machin Lane my first port of call.

Was in a hurry, asked for some properties in my price range, the agent produced a few hard copy examples from their filling cabinets for my consideration. To the point, I have their details and info needed with no nonsense so I could get on with my day.

I can't recommend Machin Lane enough. Throughout the long process between first viewing the property and finally getting the keys the team were highly professional and helpful. This was not an easy journey and they worked extremely hard to make sure it went through. If I was selling a house in Chatham or Rochester I wouldn't look anywhere else. 5 stars!

I cannot recommend Machin Lane enough. They are extremely knowledgeable of the market, are realistic in what they feel properties are worth and are clearly very experienced. David and the team have been professional throughout the whole sales process, keeping us updated as we moved along, and nothing was ever too much trouble. If you want to sell your home, give Machin Lane a call.

We cannot thank Machin Lane enough for all their guidance & support & proffesionalism. Their expert knowledge was invaluable. Always availabe & willing to answer any questions we had.
Having had previous poor experiences; Machin Lane has renewed our faith in in Estate Agents.
Thank you again David, Mike & staff for helping us to sell our house in a short period during a difficult market.

Independent agent with excellent local knowledge. Diligent, fair and a champion for both buyers and sellers. They were prepared to go the extra mile and quietly determined to achieve the desired result for both parties. I would warmly recommend them to anyone who wanted to be assured that their transaction was in more than competent hands.

Falsely advertised a property as chain free which caused us a lot of stress when we believed that the chain were ready to exchange contracts. When confronted they denied this despite clear evidence on their website that the property was advertised with no onward chain. They persisted with lies regarding this property allowing us to believe that exchange of contracts would take place each day for two weeks - causing us to be packed up in boxes and left in the lurch a day before the set move day. I would steer clear of these agents.
