Great knowledge and great communication

His negotiating skills were great and he conducted many opens across 6 weeks. Great result in a very hard market.

Alan’s years of professional know how in the real estate market . Coupled with his step by step approach to the sale was a great asset to us . It made the process easy to understand and any questions we asked were explained in a way that informed and reassured us .

We are so happy we chose Alan to sell our home. Throughout the whole process he was kind, patient, honest and friendly. We sold our home quickly with a price we were very happy with. We always felt listened to and that our opinions were valued. Thank you so much to Alan for all his hard work going above and beyond!

Found people to fix things and give quotes. An amazing agent.

I have known Alan Holmes for 17 years & have now engaged him on 4 separate occasions to sell a property on my behalf. It seems obvious to say, but I wouldn't continue to turn to Alan each time unless I was pleased with his capability, knowledge & service. With each sale, Alan has exceeded my initial sale price expectation. The key to which, I believe, is in his professionalism & relationship building with both vendors & potential buyers. I have also used Alan's knowledge & expertise in the purchase of 2 significant land/build projects which further reflects the faith & trust I have in him. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alan Holmes to both home sellers & buyers alike. You won't be disappointed in either his service or results.

Alan has a great number years experience and knowledge of ‘The Gateway Estate’ which shows. We have lived in this estate for 10 years and Alan has from time to time visited us to enquire about selling. With the sale of our home he was very professional, friendly, honest, genuine and his advice was excellent. Often followed us up. He showed a personal interest in any queries and was always available to talk to. We were extremely happy with the sale price which exceeded our expectations and sold in four days being on the market. A great success. Highly recommend Alan to be your agent for any future sales.

Alan was fantastic, always avaliable for any qns or phone calls. Would definitely recommend Alan to be your agent.

We've lived in the Gateway estate for 12 years. During this time Alan has been visible within our community. It was an easy choice to utilise Alan's services when we decided to sell our family home. Alan is personable, genuine, professional, realistic, approachable...a absolute pleasure to work with and to know. We highly recommend Alan's services!

Saying "thank you" to Alan, just doesn't feel enough. The experience we had with him compared to our estate agents last year - chalk and cheese. Alan's work ethic is second to none. He's honest, down-to-earth, knowledgeable, transparent and his communication is spot on. We always felt informed and supported, every step of the way. We're so grateful to have had him by our side for such a stressful, big moment in our lives. Our home was sold by day 7 and officially signed up by day 8. Even when contracts were signed, he still worked tirelessly in the background incase the sale fell through. He was supposed to sell my parents' house as well, but due to family medical issues, this did not go ahead. Alan's concern was for my family's well being and not with the sale that he lost. We cannot recommend Alan highly enough. If you want the best price, a quick result and an honest agent. Alan is your man!!!

Alan was an absolute professional when selling our dear Mum’s beloved home. He approached every aspect with respect & genuinely cared & understood how hard this was for us. We sold our Lilydale home with Alan 9 years ago & didn’t hesitate to reach out to Alan to sell Mum’s home. His knowledge of the area & market was second to none. Nothing was too much trouble. Alan sold the home within 5 days, holding 3 opens in that time & achieving a fabulous price. Alan communicated with us every step of the way with multiple calls per day. We would highly recommend Alan, without hesitation. Absolute 5 Star ⭐️ service.

After months of anticipation, emotions and decisions, we are beyond thrilled to share that our home sold in just 5 days!!! We owe a huge thank you to the brilliant Alan Holmes from Max Brown Lilydale for making this happen. From day one, Alan brought professionalism, expertise, and a calming confidence that turned what could’ve been a stressful process into something seamless. Alan's attention to detail, sharp market insight, and commitment to getting the best result for us truly set Alan apart. Every viewing, every question, every step of the way — Alan was right there, always only a call away. Alan didn’t just sell a property; he helped us close a chapter and start our new one with ease. If you’re thinking of selling, buying, or just need honest advice about the market, I can’t recommend Alan Holmes from Max Brown Lilydale high enough. We will be forever grateful to Alan in being there for us, and making our retirement dream a reality.
