We had our first Propertymark audit carried out by Darren. The whole team at Hanley Estates Limited felt the audit was both positive and rewarding. Darren is very knowledgeable and experienced and would answer any questions we had. Darren would also make suggestions of the any improvements that were needed in terms of our compliance and would make us at ease. I would highly recommend Darren for any estate agency/property management company that needs an audit.

We’ve been members of Propertymark for many years and have always valued their support. However, we were particularly impressed by how insightful, helpful, and informative Darren’s recent visit and audit were.

He thoroughly reviewed all the areas we should be adhering to, offering clear, practical advice on the steps we could take. He even went above and beyond by helping to draft documents and posters.

Darren was polite, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. He took the time to explain the reasoning behind each point, and nothing was too much trouble.

We would highly recommend this service to any agent—it's genuinely worthwhile.

Thank you again, Darren, for all your help and support. It was a pleasure working with you, and we look forward to your next visit.

We recently completed a Propertymark audit and found the whole process to be professional, well-structured, and genuinely supportive. It felt far more like a constructive review than a box-ticking exercise.

Propertymark adds real value to our business by helping us maintain high standards and strengthen our compliance. The guidance and follow-up resources provided are clear, practical, and easy to implement.

Being a member gives us confidence that we’re operating in line with best practice, and it reassures our clients that we meet recognised professional standards.

Overall, we feel supported as a business and see real benefit in being part of Propertymark.

We recently had an audit with Darren Kitchenside who immediately put us at ease with his friendly and personal approach. It was thorough and extremely informative and it was obvious that Darren had an enormous amount of knowledge that he passed over to us. It certainly helped clarify some issues and can only aid us in our compliance and procedures. Darren followed up the audit with a promised email with links and notes on our meeting which are extremely useful. Thanks very much.

Had our compliance review with Darren Kitchenside - he really knows his stuff - very helpful, knowledgeable and professional.

Really nice guy.

Had our first review through Propertymark with Darren Kitchenside. Quite daunted by it initially, but Darren explained what the process was, which eased the anxiety. Darren proved very knowledgeable at every level and was happy with the findings and encouraged by our business meeting 100% compliance by following some amendments suggested.

We had an audit with Darren Kitchenside.
Darren was very knowledgeable, professional and very friendly.
I found the meeting very informative, specially with the latest regulations surrounding the estate agency act and the current residential rental market.

We recently had our audit with Darren and it really was an insightful and beneficial process. Darren was able to advise on areas where we had either not considered fully or addressed in enough depth.

Whilst I’ve got some homework to do, I definitely feel more ‘calm about compliance’ on the back of it.

We recently had an audit with Darren, he was very helpful and made what could have been a stressful expierence very positive. He showed great knowledge of where we could improve.

We recently completed our first compliance audit with Darren Kitchenside, and it was a very smooth and valuable experience from start to finish.

Darren was thorough, clear, and incredibly helpful in walking us through all areas of compliance. The audit was comprehensive without feeling overwhelming, and he took the time to explain everything in a practical and easy-to-understand way.

What stood out most was how constructive the feedback was. Rather than just pointing out issues, Darren provided actionable suggestions and useful resources that we can implement straight away.

Overall, a very positive experience, especially for our first audit. We feel much more confident in our processes moving forward thanks to his guidance.

I recently underwent a compliance audit with Darren Kitchenside at Propertymark and found the experience to be extremely positive.

Darren was professional, knowledgeable, and approachable throughout. He took the time to clearly explain each aspect of the process, which made what can often feel like a daunting exercise both straightforward and constructive. His follow-up notes were detailed and genuinely helpful.

We had our audit and Darren was fantastic, he couldn't have been more helpful and really provided the guidance we needed to ensure that we were fully compliant. The feedback was very thorough and he went above and beyond to help us. Thank you Darren!

We have now had our desk top audit review with Darren Kitchenside which was incredibly informative. Naturally we were nervous leading up to our first review however found Darren to be very supportive. Hope to lean on his support again in the future.

We are delighted to be members of Propertymark for many years, we had the pleasure of meeting Darren Kitchenside recently, who was able to help steer us in the right direction to ensure we maintain the highest possible standards. Helpful, knowledgeable and easy to understand. Top service many thanks Darren.

The audit was very informative, supportive and a very helpful experience with the emphasis on achieving the shared aim of ensuring high standards.

Compliance Audit. Two words that probably fill most businesses with dread, if only because we're busy trying to make a living! Fear not though. It was actually very useful. Fortunately our business is very compliant and aware of its obligations, but Propertymark are not trying to catch you out here. There's a myriad of legislation and regulation to keep on top of. Not helped when the powers that be are all over the shop i.e. the material information debacle.
Darren is really friendly and helpful and just made useful suggestions on how we could tidy up a few things and just be even more bullet proof as a business should we ever be inspected. Definitely worth the time to have someone who really knows this stuff backwards to act as a fail safe and indeed a resource I'd happily go back to in future.

After over three decades of blemish-free support, today I have reached the conclusion that Propertymark has lost its core purpose and all sensible direction, so I have resigned my FNAEA and MARLA memberships.

I'm sure the founders would be horrified to learn that Propertymark has formed a separate limited company for the purpose of investing funds into venture capital. If that's not bad enough, £115k was lost in one venture alone in 2024. Whose money was lost?

We had a Propertymark audit with Darren who was great, he was very helpful, personable and informative. The documents and checklists he sent to us after to ensure our business is compliant went above and beyond what we’d expect from a standard audit – thank you Darren!

I’ve been a an ARLA member of a property for over 5years & the real there are also helpful.
I have not found one member to say otherwise and really appreciate the effort they do to give the best guidance to matters explained- especially understanding my lingo.
Huge thumbs up and thank you legal team at property mark.
