Machin Lane Ltd, ME1

Machin Lane is a proudly independent estate agency based in Rochester, Kent. Founded in 1990 by Alan Machin and David Lane, we have built a reputation for honesty, professionalism, and results across Medway, Maidstone, Sittingbourne, and Gravesend. Today, the business is led by Branch Manager Jay Squire, Assistant Branch Manager Cassius Hammond, and Millie Pavey MARLA, Head of Residential Lettings and Property Management. Together, they continue the founders’ legacy while bringing modern technology and a client-first approach to every transaction.

We specialise in residential and commercial sales, lettings, and property management, alongside referrals to trusted mortgage advisors and conveyancing solicitors. With over 50 years of combined experience, our team blends local expertise with sharp market insight. From selling a period home in Rochester to letting an apartment in Maidstone, our advice is realistic, data-driven, and designed to achieve the right result.

What sets us apart is our independence. Unlike corporate chains, we are not driven by quotas or pressured to overvalue properties. We focus on accurate pricing, quality marketing, and transparent communication, ensuring every client works directly with senior staff from start to finish.

Our lettings and management department, led by Millie Pavey MARLA, provides landlords and tenants with a seamless, compliant service. With more than 15 years of experience and ARLA accreditation, Millie ensures every property is managed with diligence and care.

At Machin Lane, we don’t chase listings. We chase results. That means honest valuations, first-class marketing, and clear guidance that helps people move with confidence. We are proud of our Rochester roots, committed to Medway, and trusted by generations of clients.

Whether you are buying, selling, letting, or investing, you can rely on Machin Lane to be your partner in property — since 1990, and every step of the way.
