Alan was on point from our first meeting. His knowledge of the area,market and what was required to achieve a good result was very reassuring. Alan's followup and communication was professional and always kept me engaged in the process. Although unsure about some of the changes required initially Alan's enthusiasm and experience gave me confidence to go all out with his suggestions and the eventual outcome proved it to be the correct decision. Alan is a highly motivated and client focused agent.

From our first interactions with Alan, we were impressed with his knowledge of the area and the Gateway estate itself. Alan was easy to speak to and we felt comfortable entrusting him with the sale of our property. Our trust in Alan was warranted as we sold our property for more then what we thought was possible. We also brought our new property through Alan. We would highly recommend Alan to sell your property.

Alan Holmes knows the market very well and was very willing to assist with the sale of our property. Not only was advice in regards to the sale most welcoming but Alan communicated with me regularly and updated me with interested buyers. He showed great professionalism and it was a pleasure to have chosen Max Brown to sell our property.

Did an excellent job in difficult times and achieved a great result

Alan has a very good working knowledge of the market and that makes it easier to make decisions when it comes to selling

Alan made the purchase of my home very easy. He took the time to listen and followed my requirements to the word. A thorough gentleman. I would not hesitate recommending Alan for purchasing/selling a property.

After being in the same home for 25 years, I decided to sell. Alan was recommended by a family member who immediately put my mind at ease. Coming out of Covid lockdown it was a difficult time, as inspections were by appointment only. Nothing was to much trouble, his communication and attention to detail was excellent. His experience and knowledge of the market was extremely valuable due this period. I sold within the week and was very happy with the price.

Alan’s knowledge of the local market was exemplary and he had a very good handle on valuations . He valued my property and got the price. Clearly he has great negotiation skills.

I'm so glad we chose Alan Holmes (and his assistant Ruth Stafford) to list our Lilydale home. We were nervous first-time vendors living 2+ hours away from the property we were selling, so we needed someone trustworthy and reliable who would get the job done with minimum fuss. Alan and Ruth did exactly that! Not only did they make the process of preparing our house for sale painless and stress-free, but they achieved an incredible result that was beyond our expectations – in just over a week! Alan is professional, confident and knowledgeable, and his negotiation skills just blew us away. To top it off, both Alan and Ruth are lovely, genuine people who really care about their clients and go out of their way to help them achieve their dreams. I can't thank them enough.

After meeting with many agents we were feeling a bit flat, then Alan was referred to us and it all changed. From the moment we meet he listened, advised from his 20+ years of local knowledge, but most importantly to us he was engaged and positive. We felt we were in safe hands and it proved to be true. Alan provided personal attention all the way through including attending with his stylist and photographer. Alan offered more "opens" and kept us in the loop after every one, and our house sold in a week. And due to Alan's professional advice to continue opens until after the sale was final we had others wanting to make offers should the sale fall through. What more can a seller ask? I will be keeping Alan's number in my contacts as I will be pleased to refer him in the future.

Alan sold the house in time the frame he suggested. He worked 2 opens a week during that time and got a price at the upper end of our price range.

Alan Holmes sold our house within 4 days of going on the internet for an exceptional price we couldn't be happier. From the moment he walked in our door he was enthusiastic about our home and with the comparable sales he has made in the area for amazing prices we could not have given our home to sell to anyone else. Alan kept us informed during the sales process and made it all as easy as possible. We would highly recommend Alan to anyone in the area wishing to sell their home. Kind regards Alisha and Ben
