MAC CHEEMA

About Mac Cheema MSc BEng

Mac was born and raised in Gravesend, Kent, and now resides in New Barn, Longfield. After a considerable number of years in the property market, creating his own portfolio and transacting with commercial and residential sales and lettings, Mac felt it was time for him to explore further into the real estate business and create a business that he would be proud of and to transfer to his children. After experiencing various agents across the UK for sales and lettings and also being a tenant and a buyer, Mac has learnt considerable techniques that he feels benefitted him and also disappointed him. With that experience in mind Mac would like to deliver a service that he would be proud of and treat his customers personally and professionally.
