Appalling letting agents. My son and his partner were moving into their first apartment. There was no hot water facility at all looks like a broken boiler. No assistance from this company when you try to call no answer. A shoutout to Chloe who didn't want to help, just kept saying landlord problem. My understanding is check everything before entering into any agreement with this company. Would love to give them no stars.....
Absolute legends in the game. Hannah and Chloe assisted us with moving in and the process was sooo smooth. Again absolute legends.
I cannot thank the team at William H Brown, Colchester enough for their outstanding support and professional service. A special thank you goes to Chloe, who has been incredibly helpful, friendly, and supportive throughout the process of renting my first flat in Colchester. From the very first day I walked into the office, Chloe welcomed me with a warm smile and immediately put me at ease. She reassured me that she would help me find the right flat, guided me through every step of the letting process, and patiently explained all the paperwork and documentation involved. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and she was always available to answer my questions and provide updates. Thanks to her dedication and professionalism, what could have been a stressful experience turned into a smooth and enjoyable one. I truly appreciate all the hard work Chloe and Hannah put into helping me secure my first home. I would highly recommend William H Brown, Colchester to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and supportive letting agent.
We rented from William H Brown for 15 years and always found the staff at the Colchester Lettings office to be really helpful. More recently, Chloe helped to sort a few things out for us before our move. Never had any issues with the team here. Thanks for all your help and support over the past 15 years.
Currently using them to buy our first home and they have been very helpful! Daisy has answered all our questions at all hours of the day and made the process a lot easier!
Cannot speak highly enough of Lisa Dove, From start to finish she has been absolutely fantastic, going above and beyond for us to make sure we completed on our exchange despite many difficulties. We are so very grateful for all her hard work and kindness Thank you!
"5/5 Stars - Absolutely incredible service from Daisy Cornell! Today I officially completed on my mortgage, and I couldn't have done it without them. They made the entire process stress-free, kept me updated every step of the way, and made sure everything went through perfectly. If you need a mortgage broker in Colchester, ask for Daisy at William H Brown. Thank you so much for helping me get into my new home!"
After several successful tenant finds I have been delighted with Emma and the lettings team and they are always looking out for our best interests. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to any landlord.
Me and my husband are first time buyers and we were walking in no man's land not having a clue where to start what to do after speaking with some mortgage brokers we didn't think we would be able to get what we needed, we viewed a property with these guys and was offered a face to face meeting with Daisy Cornell their mortgage advisor and WOW! She is fantastic she got us everything we needed/wanted and more!! We can't thank Daisy enough for making our dreams come true, I've cried many happy tears this last month and it's all down to Daisy! So thank you so much Daisy for everything xxx
Chloe was fantastic in getting us in to our new property and sorting all of the details extremely quickly while we were on a time crunch. She also went out of her way to make things easier for us with 2 young children in tow, which was very much appreciated. A very friendly and professional service from both Chloe and Emma, thank you so much, we love our new home!
Really recommend William H brown! Especially Daisy! As first time buyers Daisy has helped us every step of the way, whenever we have a question she’s quick to answer and is very knowledgeable! Would highly recommend Daisy and William H Brown! Thank you!!
My partner & I have recently rented a property from William H Brown, and the customer service & communication has been incredible from start to finish. Hannah & Emma have been excellent, and have answered any questions we had, big or small. Definitely recommend! Thank you again guys.
A big thank you to Jason and the team for all your help in selling my house. Great service, would highly recommend.
Emma and Hannah were very professional and helpful with everything. Made sure I had all the relevant information regarding my tenancy, move and property. Faultless service and reallyy love the property.
I can’t recommend Daisy Cornell highly enough. Although I haven’t completed on my property just yet, she has successfully secured my mortgage, and I already feel confident that I’m in the best possible hands moving forward. From the very beginning, Daisy has been professional, positive, and incredibly approachable, making what can be a stressful process feel much more manageable. She has taken the time to explain everything clearly, kept me updated throughout, and has always been available to answer any questions I’ve had. Her knowledge and expertise really shine through, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about her clients and the outcome. I have no doubts about continuing this journey with her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a mortgage broker.
I was recommended to use Daisy as a mortgage broker, and what a great choice that was! Incredible all the way with great communication enabling us to fully understand all that was going on, which as a first time buyer we were delighted with. All information was clear, concise, and punctual. Overall, Daisy is the only mortgage broker we'll be using! Will be recommending to all friends and relatives.
William h Brown have been very helpful all the way through. Daisy has been excellent with helping me get my mortgage sorted. As a first time buyer she has made everything easy to understand. Would highly recommend
I am so incredibly thankful for the team at Colchester for helping me secure my first flat (renting)! The process was very smooth and simple, also quick which was amazing!! Hannah did an amazing job showing me around my apartment, and answering any questions I had! Along with Emma who has been communicating and guided me through the whole process with me really well. Thank you so much Hannah & Emma 😊
It’s the second time we’ve had the pleasure of having Daisy as our mortgage advisor. Firstly purchasing our first property & now selling and buying a second a year later. She has always gone above and beyond to help us and answer any questions we have. As silly as they sometimes feel, there is never any judgement from Daisy and she is always willing to explain things in easier terms for us. Can not recommend her enough! Next time we are ready to move we will 100% be going back to Daisy.
William H Brown have been very helpful in helping us find our home, cannot fault them. Communication was amazing
Finding our new home with William H Brown has been the most pleasant experience I have had. I haven’t felt any stress in the process it’s been completely professional and communication has been on point from the start. I can’t thank them enough for helping me find a home for me and my daughter. Highly recommend. Thank you Hayley :)
Wow! What a privilege to have Daisy, W H Brown Colchester on our side with arranging a mortgage and purchasing a home. It’s Top Tier customer service . Daisy is extremely knowledgable and made us feel comfortable and at ease in a situation which was very new to us. Communication was superb, with constant updates of the current process of our applications. I with confidence would happily suggest Daisy, W H brown to anyone that is thinking of starting the process of purchasing a home.
Great service, very helpful and professional team. Smooth and easy process. Highly recommend.
Me and my partner had a very good experience with william h brown, we had very little knowledge on the house buying process but was supported and educated throughout the whole process. Daisy in particular was very helpful and always available to any queries and questions we had. She made us completely aware of everything involved and made sure we fully understood every step of the process. Overall she made the usually really stressful experience a lot more calming. Very thankful for her help! And we can't recommend her enough!
Hannah, Jack and Emma were all absolutely amazing so helpful and so easy to work with would definitely recommend
We are incredibly grateful for how smooth William H Brown made our rental process go, especially Hannah. She showed us probably a total of 8 different flats until we saw one we were happy with. After she knew we wanted to move-in ASAP, she sent all of our required paperwork over and quickly responded to all of our emails. It’s our first time renting (for me, in the UK) so I appreciated how clear she made everything.
I had a great experience with William H Brown during my first-time purchase. The team was professional and supportive throughout the process. Daisy, in particular, provided amazing service and helped me understand everything clearly. She was patient, knowledgeable, and always happy to explain each step, which made the whole experience far less stressful. As a first-time buyer, I really appreciated the support and would definitely recommend William H Brown.
Had an amazing experience with William H Brown! They’ve been so friendly and helped so much! Particular shout out to Daisy who’s been incredible! She’s supported us every step of the way and gone above and beyond! Highly recommend!
Emma and Hannah were great, easy onboarding fast reply, great to deal with. Will look to purchase a property via them when I leave my rental.
I am so incredibly grateful to Daisy for all of her help, hard work and support throughout my mortgage journey. From our very first appointment, she was friendly, approachable, and explained everything so clearly. She made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and reassured me that no question was ever too much trouble. Daisy was always quick to respond and made sure I felt informed and confident every step of the way. Even during the more stressful moments, when it seemed like things might not work out, she remained calm, positive, and incredibly reassuring. She truly helped to ease so much of the stress that naturally comes with securing a mortgage. I honestly cannot thank Daisy enough. She has been absolutely amazing, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely caring mortgage advisor.
We exchanged on our first property today after using Daisy Cornell as our mortgage broker. She is an absolute star!! As well as being an all round lovely person, she went above and beyond to help us with our purchase, through 2 failed mortgage applications and a long 6 month leasehold negotiation. We genuinely couldn’t have done it without her and I couldn’t recommend her services enough.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had a fantastic experience with William Brown in Colchester. The whole process was smooth and stress-free, and that was entirely down to Hannah. She made the application process super quick and efficient from start to finish, keeping everything clear and well organised throughout. Her professionalism and friendly approach really stood out.
I can’t speak highly enough of William H Brown and the outstanding service I received throughout our house sale. From start to finish, the whole team were consistently professional, polite, and genuinely supportive. Even something as simple as answering the phone was always a pleasant experience — nothing ever felt like too much trouble. A special thank you goes to Lisa, whose support was exceptional. She truly went above and beyond at every stage of the transaction. Her communication, reassurance, and dedication made the entire process feel smooth and well‑managed, and I’m incredibly grateful for everything she did. I’d also like to thank Jason and his team for their professionalism and the confidence they inspired throughout. It’s rare to find a team that combines efficiency with such warmth and care. I highly recommend William H Brown to anyone looking for a reliable, supportive, and genuinely customer‑focused estate agent. Much thanks to the whole team for making a stressful process feel so much easier.
What an amazing team! I dealt with Hannah mainly, but between Hannah and the letting team, I’ve had the best experience with tenancy. I was starting to lose hope with Estate Agents, because of other experiences, but having Hannah and team to work with has changed my views but only with William H Brown Estate Agents. They have been very professional and very helpful every step of the way until getting the keys. They are very responsive, and are quite prompt. Finally, an Agent actually looking to let out a property! Thank you all for your help and especially Hannah, we really appreciate your service! I hope other homeowners can see who to come to as I’m not convinced some other agents are putting in effort to let out their properties! 😊
Really happy with William H Brown. The team is super organized and professional. Big thanks to Jack for helping me find a place that ticked all my boxes. Highly recommend
Great service from William H Brown. Very professional and organized.Letting stuff was a huge help in getting me the property I wanted with everything I needed. Thanks!
I had a fantastic experience with William H Brown. The team is incredibly organised and professional, making the whole process smooth. A huge shout-out to Jack, who went above and beyond to help me secure a property that met every single one of my requirements. I couldn't be happier with the service!
I had a genuinely excellent experience with William H Brown Estate Agents on Culver Street West in Colchester. From start to finish, the whole process felt professional, smooth and far less stressful than I had expected. A special thank you has to go to Jack Percival, who was outstanding throughout. Jack was approachable, patient and always happy to explain things clearly, no matter how small the question. He kept me well informed at every stage and was incredibly reliable — exactly the sort of person you want on your side when dealing with property. What really stood out was the personal touch. It never felt rushed or transactional; instead, it felt like I was being genuinely looked after. That level of care makes a huge difference. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this branch, and especially Jack Percival, to anyone looking for an estate agent they can truly trust. A fantastic service all round.
As a landlord, my experience with William H Brown was extremely disappointing. I trusted them to manage my property professionally, but instead dealt with poor communication, lack of transparency, and minimal proactive management. Updates were infrequent and often only provided after repeated follow-ups. Issues with the property and tenants were either not flagged early or were handled slowly, creating unnecessary risk and stress. At times, it felt like I knew more about what was going on with my own property than the agent managing it. There was little evidence of active oversight or accountability, and problems were reacted to rather than properly managed. For the fees charged, I expected far better organisation, attention to detail, and landlord advocacy. I’ve since moved my property elsewhere and would not recommend this agency to other landlords looking for reliable property management. Stay well clear of this company! Sounds good at the start once they have your money they do not care!
Daisy has been brilliant with helping us sort out a mortgage and always there if we need help with anything
We were recently recommended Daisy Cornell by the friendly William H Brown team for mortgage services as first time buyers and were extremely happy with the experience! From the first conversation through to approval she has been friendly, flexible and always able to answer any questions. Daisy is clearly knowledgeable in her field and passionate about supporting her clients through the entire house buying process, so we would be more than happy to recommend and use her services in future.
The Team at WH Brown from the start are very professional, knowledgable and extremely helpful with our offer on a property advertised for sale through them. Daisy being appointed as our broker, has been super helpful in our application for a mortgage as first time buyers, explaining the full process and covering all details making what would seem a complicated/stressful process seamless. Especially with being first time buyers, there is no doubt that everything is taken care off with no worry of horror stories you hear of. Extremely grateful to the whole team at WH Brown, couldn’t recommend enough to anyone looking at properties.
Daisy has been absolutely exceptional in helping me apply for my mortgage and get approved by the bank literally within days. She’s so reassuring and always goes the extra mile to put your needs and preferences first. Thank you so much for everything, Daisy. 🩷
Hannah, Emma & have been super helpful throughout the process of our move, they answered all our questions about the property clearly and quickly. And helped organise our move-in date, rental agreement and deposits, etc. helping ease the stress of moving. A lovely team to work with – highly recommended!
Hannah, Emma, and Jack have all been great helping us find and sort out a new home in Colchester. All super responsive and helpful!
The experience has been super smooth and awesome, and this is all thanks to Daisy Cornell, who is extraordinary and takes the time to reach out and assist in every way she can. Even when we became worried she would say to my partner she has got this and not worried 👌 I admire how she carries herself so effortlessly when doing her job 😁 she made it possible for us to get our mortgage and we are thankful to her for every assistance rendered, calls, chat and text message. Oh did I mention she is so kind, easy-going and accessible I will definitely be recommending her. Xoxo...
I’m extremely grateful for the support I received from Daisy Cornell. From our first conversation through to approval, she was professional, approachable, and always quick to respond to questions. Daisy took the time to understand our needs and worked diligently to secure the right mortgage for us. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would confidently recommend her to others.
Jack, Hollie, and Hannah were absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. They answered every question we had about the viewing of the property with professionalism and clarity. Once we agreed to rent, they acted swiftly and efficiently, ensuring that we had a confirmed moving-in date in no time. Nothing was ever too much trouble for this team. Their dedication and responsiveness made the experience stress-free and enjoyable. Truly exceptional members of staff – highly recommended!
I just want to say thank Hannah for helping me securing our rented house, and also Emma and Jack, very lovely agents, the team were very quick to responding to emails and calls, they answered all of my questions and the process was very quick and easy, am very pleased with the whole process, would definitely recommend them if you looking in renting or buying. Very happy 😊 well deserved 5 stars!!!
We recently used Daisy Cornell for our remortgage, and we couldn't be happier with the service. The entire process was seamless from start to finish. Daisy was knowledgeable, quickly understanding our needs and presenting clear options. She secured a new rate that will save us a fair amount of money each month. Her communication was excellent, always keeping us informed and making a typically stressful process feel easy. We highly recommend Daisy Cornell to anyone seeking remortgage advice; you won't be disappointed!"
Jack Percival is the kind of professional you hope to meet when searching for your dream home. From the moment you begin working with him, his attentiveness is unmistakable—he listens closely, asks the right questions, and pays attention to the details that matter most to you. Jack doesn’t just show you houses; he guides you through every step, making sure you understand the process and feel confident in your choices. He negotiates with care and skill, always striving to secure a fair price and a deal that truly benefits you. William H Brown is incredibly fortunate to have someone like Jack on their team—a dedicated, thoughtful expert who turns the stressful task of finding a home into a smooth and reassuring experience.
Thank you to the team at William H Brown in Colchester, Alexis and Jordan helped with the sale and quickly agreed a new sale for us within only 1 week when the first purchasers withdrew close to exchange. Lisa in particular has been outstanding, she has been an absolute saint with her patience and has chased non stop to help to progress both the sale and the purchase. Lisa was always quick to step in when solicitors went quiet and get us the answers and updates we needed. She’s very responsive, quick to communicate and professional. We’re so grateful to have had Lisa’s help, she has made a stressful situation a lot less stressful than it could have been. The team are lucky to have you!!
Daisy Cornell was amazing to work with. As first-time buyers, we had no idea what we were doing, but she made everything feel simple and manageable. She explained every step clearly, answered all our questions with patience, and guided us through the whole mortgage process with real expertise. We always felt supported and well-informed. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!
The best Estate agency I have come across in the whole of UK thank you so much Hannah from William H Brown I got the best from you with you guys letting is very easy no hustle everything just went smoothly Thank you once again
We didn’t view this property beforehand—we were hoping we would like it, so we finalised everything and paid without seeing it. We had our very first viewing on the day we received the keys and oh my gosh, the property was everything we wanted and more! It was so beautiful, the space was perfect, and every single detail was amazing. My kids absolutely loved it. Thank you, William H Brown, for finding us the perfect place. Even without a viewing, you knew exactly what we were looking for. A special thank you to Hannah McCreath for making the letting process so easy. We truly appreciate all your help.
Jason at the Colchester branch of William H Brown promised me a personal service in moving my mother out of Colchester to a new home. For various personal reasons, I had quite a tough brief for him and he DELIVERED in spades. He located a buyer rapidly after some aggressive and competitive marketing. He managed my expectations regarding the value of the property. He helped us overcome various hurdles regarding maintenance and possible works requirements. When he had to be away, he neatly handed over to his very capable team. Basically, Jason and the W H Brown team did EXACTLY as they promised, when we really needed things to go smoothly. I couldn't be happier. Thank you Jason and team.
Hello, You can work with William H. Brown with complete peace of mind. When I was purchasing a property and later renting it out, I first spoke with several companies and even attended some property viewings. Eventually, I received support from William H. Brown’s Colchester offices. Both during the purchase and the letting processes, the way they managed everything, the experience they provided, their attention to detail in correspondence and procedures, and their close follow-up were all very successful and made the process much easier. I would especially like to thank Ms. Hannah for her clear and prompt communication. It has been a very positive customer experience, and I believe I will continue working with them again in the future. Thank you.
Hannah is very professional, good manners and approachable. Very helpful in providing and assisting on my renting application process. Highly recommend William H Brown .
I’m not usually one to leave any type of review. The last time I left a review was 2009 to inform Colchester united that there new stadium had no atmosphere and that they should have never moved from layer road! Anyway, this review will be a lot more positive! Buying a house can be extremely daunting and stressful, especially for a man who is now 60 years young. However, the younger gentlemen who has helped us find our dream property has been nothing but exceptional! This young man is named Jordan and all I can say is what an extraordinary lad! Not only did he help me and my wife Jaqueline find the property for us but he has restored our faith in the younger generations work ethic (our own son would rather travel to Thailand than do a honest days work). We thank you whole heartedly for finding this property for us Jordan, Jaqueline did want to bake you some cookies but don’t worry son, I told her you wanted to keep your teeth!! Thank you once again, Stephen (Big Steve).
Thank you so much to Daisy for helping me obtain my mortgage under quite tricky circumstances! She was certain she could help me take over my current mortgage alone, using only one years accounts as a self employed person. I didn’t doubt her once and she provided! Professional but extremely welcoming, and was there every step of the way with all my questions! Highly recommend. Thank you again Daisy for being the best!
Very lovely and helpful team. We had Jack’s help from beginning to end, he was very understanding, polite and patient - I would definitely recommend!
We have had such a good experience with Daisy through our house buying process, she has been so helpful and has definitely made the whole process a lot less stressful! Would highly recommend Daisy
Had a wonderful experience with Hannah and Emma at W H Brown, Colchester. Efficient, pleasurable and swift service from start to finish. Highly recommended.
Daisy has been absolutely amazing, she has gone above and beyond to help us in our house buying process. No matter how difficult things got.. Daisy was always able to fix it, and we are so grateful for her help along the way. Whatever we needed she was just a quick message away no matter what the time of day, always there to help which was really great! I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough she has been so amazing. Thank you Daisy xx
Daisy has been amazing in supporting me with my move and helping me to understand the whole process. As a first time single person buyer it has been a daunting process however Daisy has been incredible taking the time to explain everything to me and make me feel at ease. She has been so on the ball with everything and there to answer my questions and worries whenever I have needed. 100% recommend!!
I cannot express how amazing Hannah is. She made the process of my first time renting so smooth and easy. She is very professional, knowledgable and understanding. She made sure she explained each process in detail and made sure everything was done correctly. I am extremely grateful for her support and guidance through the process. Thanks.
Hannah has been incredibly helpful in finding us a new home, she brought us to the perfect house and did everything she could to make sure it was ours! Very kind and always replying to our case super quickly but also incredibly professional and always with a good energy! My partner and I are extremely grateful to have worked with her! Great work!!
we had such an amazing experience with jack, he made finding our first home so easy and quick. we are so thankful, you did a wonderful job jack, thankyou!
I cannot recommend Daisy more highly! If there were 6 stars, she’d get them. She has made me feel at ease with the entire house buying process since the moment I met her. As a first time, single buyer, I was daunted by my lack of knowledge and experience with buying a property. Daisy fully took me under her wing, has been there for me throughout the entire process and I know she’s only at the end of the phone for any query (no matter how silly). She’s made me feel supported, at ease and removed all my initial worries. She has a magic ability to explain complicated things in a simple and straightforward manor, while still being incredibly professional. Who knew it would be possible to look forward to a mortgage meeting!? But with Daisy, this is definitely the case! Cannot thank Daisy enough or recommend her more!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an amazing experience with Daisy at William H Brown. She was incredibly professional, friendly, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. Daisy made everything easy to understand and went above and beyond to help me find the best mortgage option. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for expert advice and outstanding service!
We both bought our new home and sold our property via Jason - professional, empathetic, and had a much better understanding of the current market than other agents we spoke with, so we were able to achieve what we wanted fairly quickly. There was a lot of effort to make sure both sales completed in a timely manner and we were always kept informed. Thank you!
Being older customers we've had a lot of experience with Estate Agents over decades. I rarely write reviews. However, Jason Baker(Manager) and his colleague Kirsty Primmer-Gafoor have given us their full attention for several weeks, solved problems every step of the way and most of all they've been compassionate during a very difficult season of our lives. They've brought a sense of humanity back into all aspects of selling, buying, tricky sharejd ownership arrangements . And on a personal level, they've been a comfort to us during serious health issues.I can't thank them enough. We'd pick them EVERY time.
Daisy is an absolute diamond. I went to see her for some mortgage advice & she was so helpful, informative and really friendly too. The mortgage advice she’s gave me was amazing & anything I didn’t understand she made sure to explain it to me until I understood. She has made what can be a really daunting experience, as a first time buyer, a lot smoother and a lot less stressful for me. Couldn’t recommend more!
I’ve never left a google review before in my life, but dealing with Emma, Hannah and Jack has made feel like I need to let everyone know how good they are as a team! It’s my fist time dealing with WHB but they have been so helpful from the start, they have made my life as a Landlord easy and would absolutely recommend to any other struggling landlords out there.
We’ve had a huge amount of help from Jack Percival from this estate agents. Jack has always been very attentive, very polite and always willing to help. Always actively looking to help us find a property that would suit our needs. A great asset to this branch. Thank you!
We are very happy that with the help of Emma and Hannah, we were able to rent a great apartment very quickly. They are very considerate and efficient!Everything is great!
I would like to express my sincere thanks to Emma and Hannah for their exceptional professionalism. 😀 For foreigners like us who have no prior experience renting in the UK, their proactive and efficient assistance made it possible for us to find a lovely apartment quickly and with peace of mind. Through our frequent communication, it was clear that they truly understood our needs and handled everything with great professionalism and care, which made us feel very reassured. 👍 Once again, thank you, Emma and Hannah, for your dedicated service — it has been our pleasure and honor to meet you here in the UK.🥸
I had a very good experience. From the beginning, the process was handled professionally and efficiently. Jack and Hannah were helpful, approachable, and always available to answer any questions I had, which made the entire rental process smooth and stress-free. I definitely recommend. Thank you Jack
Antonny is amazing he’s the best estate agent I’ve ever encountered, very kind, caring and extremely good at this job. Not only did he get me more viewings than any other agent, he also helped me get the price I hoped for and also helped me negotiate my new house. I couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you!
Thank you William h brown Colchester, especially Antonny who sold my house before it even went on the market! I was so impressed considering I had 2 other agents that had my house on for over 3 months and I only had 2 viewings! They said Anthony was great at his job but he really showed me how good he is by getting me sold like that.
Both Emma and Hannah have been absolutely amazing! The level of support and advice from our initial phone call through to acceptance has been incredible. Highly recommend these girls as they are fantastic at their jobs and making people feel welcomed and supported throughout the process. Thank you both!
Had a great experience with William H Brown! Big thanks to Hannah and Emma for being so responsive and quick to sort everything out – they made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend! Thanks for everything.
A very positive experience with William h Brown especially with Lisa Dove who oversaw the completion of the sale, which at times became a little problematical, although this was mainly due to poor communication from my recommended conveyancer. Also a mention of Jack who was very helpful in securing the sale.
I recently completed a tenancy agreement from overseas, and although I was not fluent in English, the letting team was very supportive and responsive throughout the process. They provided help through various channels and made the entire experience smooth and reassuring. Thank you again!
Jack at William H Brown provided an excellent service throughout my letting process. He was highly professional, efficient, and consistently responsive, making the experience smooth and hassle free. I would confidently recommend him.
WHB-Culver St West, Colchester Having bought and sold several houses over the years, unfortunately this was by far the worst experience I’ve had with an agent. Two sales fell through-not the agents fault but still had to part ways after the second fell through. Positives: -Jack Hicks in mortgages is amazing to deal with. Knows his stuff and very efficient, making the mortgage application a smooth one. -Lisa Dove is a real asset and reassuring presence. Ultra professional, credible, trustworthy and feels like she is working in your best interests. These two individuals are the reason for the two stars in this review. Negatives: -I thought that the days of the stereotypical disingenuous, pushy, frustrating, incompetent estate agents were a thing of the past, however, WHB at Culver St West, Colchester have Anthony Cordeiro. Never felt like he was working in my best interests-doing the bare minimum to get what I needed then having the nerve to act like he was doing me a massive favour. Worst of all, he repeatedly tried to pressure me into breaking my chain unnecessarily—purely to push the sale through faster, regardless of the impact on me. Every interaction felt like a battle, I dreaded getting a call from him in the end and couldn’t bear the thought of having to deal with his nonsense for another 4+ months. There are plenty of other estate agents in Colchester but if you do/are using WHB in Colchester I strongly suggest that you ask for Lisa to progress your sale, her professionalism makes a significant difference. **UPDATE** Following this review I was contacted by Chloe Mcgarry, sales complaints handler who advised they’d be investigating any issues I had. Letter dated the 6th August stated I’d be contacted in 15 days or advised if that is extended-haven’t heard anything since. Also says in there complaint has been shared with the branch manager and area director-heard nothing from them either by way of addressing my issues. I guess they’re not bothered about the morales or ethics of their staff as long as the PnL looks good.
We had such a positive experience with William H Brown. From start to finish, Jack and Hannah were incredibly helpful, responsive, and supportive throughout the whole process. They made everything smooth and stress-free, always taking the time to answer our questions and keep us updated. What really stood out was the personal touch. They even gave us a welcome box when I moved in, which was such a thoughtful and sweet gesture. It made us feel truly valued. We can’t recommend William H Brown enough, especially Jack and Hannah, thank you both for making the whole experience such a good one!
Great service, honest, reliable feedback on rental prices in the area, explained their approach to marketing and why. Helped us with enabling access for trades people into and out of the property to prepare it. Kept us informed throughout, excellent tenant credit checking and went beyond the checks to clarify additional points. Thank you Hannah & Jack who made this very easy and hassle free, who are both personable and very professional.
Recently moved into a gorgeous property, rented through William H Brown. The entire team was super helpful and kind, which I really appreciated. I was nervous as this is the first time I'm not renting a house share, but they made the entire process very smooth. Highly recommend!
Hannah McCreath is an outstanding & senior member of the team at William H Brown on Culver Road, Colchester. As I am finally on my way to Colchester to study to become a history teacher I'm highly delighted with the expert, friendly, knowledgeable, polite & efficient way that Hannah has handled getting my new apartment in Colchester sorted out. Each stage of this process has been far more pleasant & painless thanks to Hannahs skill, diplomacy, kindness & sheer hard work. My only regret is not filling this in sooner as I owe Hannah an enormous debt for doing an excellent job by calming my fears & getting things done both properly & as quickly as possible. Please do name her employee of the month for consistent delivery of customer service excellence. Am sure that her boss must be very proud of her !
Had a great experience recently viewing and renting a property through William H Brown. The process was smooth and easy throughout and I'm very thankful to Jack Percival for going out of his way to accommodate my moving day plans. Highly recommended!
William H Brown have been so helpful in me finding my first property to rent. Hannah is a star, even when things haven’t been easy she’s found a way to help. Incredible customer service. I would highly recommend!
Jack hicks (William H Brown) - Made the process seamless Called Jack after getting a recommendation from a friend who had recently completed. I was a first time buyer and didn't know about a lot of things. Jack dealt with a lot of patience and answered each and every question of mine. He made me understand things which was not his job to do. I always looked up to him for advice, sometimes not mortgage related but since he is an experienced professional he gave me some advice which really helped me. The onboarding process was seamless, we had a teams call where he made me understand everything including insurance. Got the application of interest from the bank within a few days, after I made an offer, i kept in touch with Jack. Best thing is - he replied back on the same day itself. Always clearing all doubts i had. I had a lot of problems with the solicitors and my overall completion was quite delayed but he helped me get on a much lower interest rate. He changed the offer for me 4 times without complaining a single time. If you're a first time buyer I would definitely recommend Jack Hicks from William H Brown, he's the best in this industry, highly recommended.
Ive had the pleasure of being shown around a number of properties by Jack. He showed up on time to every appointment, had extensive knowledge about the property and local area/amenities and was also friendly and professional
Absolutely fantastic! I have just moved in to my new rented flat and the process and there help was amazing! I would definitely recommend William H Brown to my family and friends!
I’ve worked with William H Brown's lettings team on multiple occasions to find tenants, and each time they’ve delivered exceptional service. Their proactiveness, flexibility, and clear communication have made the process smooth and efficient from start to finish. Special thanks to Hannah McCreath and Emma Marfleet, who have both been consistently professional, approachable, and genuinely helpful. They understood my requirements, kept me informed at every stage, and went the extra mile to ensure things moved quickly and smoothly. I highly recommend the team at William H Brown to any landlord looking for a responsive and reliable agent. Their dedication and attention to detail really set them apart.
An extra ordinary exceptional customer services from the team of Hannah McCreath and Emma Marfleet at William H Brown Colchester. Your services was fantastic and exceeded my expectation.

We recently bought a house through William H Brown and I can't express enough how helpful and supportive they were, especially Jack Hicks who happened to be our helper through the whole journey! I am not sure we would ever get a house at all if it wasn't for Jack! We are first time buyers and looking at all of that with wide open baby eyes, but Jack was so patient explaining everything, helping to sort all the paperwork and making sure we actually understand what's happening. He basically sorted everything for us including mortgage, insurance, all the checks, solicitors, literally everything! Very happy customers and new home owners we are thanks to Jack and the rest of the amazing team at William H Brown.
We had the opportunity to view several rental properties with Jack Percival. Although we did not proceed with any of them, Jack was exceptionally friendly, professional, and informative. He went the extra mile to show us a range of options, demonstrating a genuine interest in helping us find the right home—unlike many other agents we’ve encountered. We truly appreciate your effort, Jack, and would be delighted to work with you again in the future. Please do keep in touch.
First class service, Hannah, my agent, Kept me well informed throughout the process. Everything went smoothly, their professional and friendly service reduced any stress associated with moving home. Highly recommend.
Jack, Hannah and Emma have been great! Really helpful, very informative and knowledgeable. Helped to get a quick viewing for a property and supported me throughout. Would definitely recommend them as a quality estate agents.
Great service from start to finish! Hannah communicated well throughout the rental of my property and answered any queries quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend using William H Brown and will be using them in the future.
Great communication. Responded quickly and were able to arrange a viewing for me on the same day which I am grateful for . Jack and Emma are very professional yet friendly and I felt comfortable throughout the process
Jack Hicks has been an absolute star throughout our entire home-buying journey. As first-time buyers, we had a lot of questions and uncertainties, but Jack’s professionalism and expertise made all the difference. From the very beginning, he provided clear, insightful advice, and always made sure we were informed and comfortable with every decision. His efficiency in securing the best mortgage deal for us was impressive, and we truly felt supported every step of the way. Jack’s dedication and personalized service made the process smooth and stress-free. We couldn’t be more grateful for his help, and we highly recommend him to anyone in need of a top-notch mortgage broker!
Jack is absolutely amazing! From start to finish he kept me updated with the mortgage process. The team also kept me in the loop with how my purchase was going. I really recommend using them for mortgage advice. Jack helped me to secure an exclusive deal so I saved more than I thought I would! He also would help with any enquiries. I highly recommend!
Jack is absolutely fantastic! Putting in extra work to help out and make sure that our move goes as smoothly as possible. Even ensuring that we got another viewing where he drove all the way out from another property that he was working on. Job well done!
Can't speak highly enough of Hannah for helping me with my search for a rental property. She was very communicative and accommodating from the outset, and kept me updated every step of the way with a personalised approach. A credit to William H Brown
I am thoroughly impressed with the rental experience I have had with Jack and Emma. The process was seamless and devoid of any significant stress. Jack demonstrated exceptional professionalism, responsiveness, and a genuine willingness to address any inquiries I may have had.
Hannah at William H Brown is absolutely amazing. She has made the whole process so easy and smooth and kept us updated the whole time through the whole process. I couldn’t recommend her enough and she is the absolutely sweetest. Well done Hannah and the whole team at William H Brown. You’ve made our family very happy.
I've worked with WHB for about a year, and the experience has been fantastic. Jack, Hannah, and Emma are professional, attentive, and always go the extra mile. For anyone seeking a reliable letting agent in Colchester, I highly recommend their services.
I have had nothing but a POSITIVE experience with my current move, Hannah has been helping me with everything and honestly it has been so stressful free and she has always been very quick to answer my questions and calls, I am honestly so greatful everything has been sorted prior to me moving in which has helped make the whole experience so much easier. Thank you so much Hannah. Katie 😄
I worked with William H Brown Colchester and specifically both Emma and Hannah during the search for a new tenant for my property in Colchester. They were professional, worked fast and communicated well. I would happily recommend them and use their service again based on this experience. Thanks for your help.
I’ve recently just started going through the process of renting my first apartment with my partner and I’ve had the most pleasant experience, Hannah has been an amazing help and was extremely patient with all the issues I faced with referencing. I can’t be more thankful. 👍
Emma and Hannah have been handling the letting of my property. Both have made the process very simple for me, they have always been on hand to answer questions and are very helpful. 100% would recommend their services. Massive thank you to both
We rented out our house recently thru WHB and it has been a real pleasure working with them to get this sorted. Emma, Hannah and Jack have been really helpful during the whole process and were always a phone call away to get thing sorted. Kudos to the team.
I had a great experience with Jack Percival at William H Brown while searching for a rental property. Jack was a nice letting negotiator – professional, friendly, and always positive. He made the whole process much easier and was really helpful in finding the right place for me. Highly recommend!
I recently had the pleasure of working with William H Brown to find a rental property, and I am extremely pleased with the experience. Letting negotiator Jack Percival provided exceptional assistance throughout the process. Jack went above and beyond to help me find the perfect house that met all my requirements. He was attentive, professional, and patient, taking the time to answer all my questions thoroughly and ensuring I fully understood every aspect of the process. He guided me clearly through the contract and made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Thanks to Jack’s expertise and dedication, I found a property that was exactly what I was looking for and I am very satisfied with the service.
Having dealt with many Estate agents over the past two months, I can honestly say William H Browns customer service is far superior to the rest. Hannah was so helpful and friendly, she kept in constant contact with me which eliminates a good portion of stress that finding a suitable property incurs. Finally someone who not only is extremely capable within their job role, but clearly enjoys it too! Thank you
I recently reached out to William H Brown Colchester Culver Street as I wanted to put my property on the rental market. Emma arranged to meet me at my property very quickly indeed. Emma was friendly, warm, and you could tell she was very well informed on the local market. The house went on the market, and just 2 or 3 days later I had an offer for a rental for 12 months! Incredible speed. Hannah was the agent that showed round my current tenants and she was also excellent - friendly, informed and worked with speed. Over all, I could not speak more fondly of the experience I had, and I would not hesitate to use them again. Anyone looking to rent their property in the Colchester area should reach out to Emma or Hannah! Thanks, ladies. Rob :)
Hannah is friendly and approachable, yet very professional. She has worked very hard to help me find a house that fitted my needs and circumstances. She also kept me updated at all times and offered great advice. I would recommend Hannah with my eyes closed! I will forever be grateful for all she has done for me. Thank you so much Hannah! 😊
Hannah has been amazing with my property search. She’s kept me up to date with new properties on the market, is thoughtful and flexible with viewings around my shift work. Very professional, very thorough and she really listens. I would use WH Brown again and that’s purely down to Hannah.
I have been dealing with William h Brown for over a year now, having sold my property only for the buyer to pull out and have to start the process again. Lisa Dove the sales progression lady has been amazing, very supportive and understanding when I haven't been too happy as to the time things are taking . She is an asset to the company and to be quite honest I have no idea what they would do without her. Well done William h Brown and especially well done Lisa, I will be forever grateful to you.
Dear WHB team, I would like to express our deepest appreciation to the WHB team, first to Antonny who initiated the sale, for helping me first go through the process of finding and securing a place to purchase, and then especially to Lisa, who continuously and carefully followed up the legal issues concerning the purchase process in a timely manner. Without their valuable support, I wouldn't have been able to follow up and finalise the process. Further appreciation goes to Emma and Hannah for everything they have done for my first property to be let out as quickly and as smoothly as possible after it was purchased, ie, cleaning, painting, decorating, flooring, etc, and now, I am definitely sure that they will continuously show the same dedication for the new property recently purchased. They have always and will always keep me updated regularly when necessary. Dear WHB team, Your efforts are very much appreciated and we will be recommending your office to anyone and everyone. Thank you.
We were introduced to the team at William H Brown by Jack who was very welcoming and gave us some useful pointers. Further down the line Lisa was always at the other end of the phone with any enquiries we had, we were super happy with the support and would recommend this estate agents. Thank you to the team and in particular Lisa and Jack
I had a great experience while renting my house, and I can’t recommend them highly enough! Jack and Emma were very helpful hroughout the entire process. They were both professional, friendly, and always available to answer any questions I had.
My partner and I have recently used William h brown to move into our first flat together and could not be happier with the customer service and support we have received. Jack in particular who has been dealing with our tenancy, has been prompt with reply’s and extremely organised. He has been friendly and approachable and made the whole process very smooth and stress free ! He has answered all our questions and made sure we felt supported. Thanks again !
I find this estate Agent William Brown, we were purchasing through very good, our messages were pass to our seller good communication at all times. Can’t say the same for our solicitor. We had to go through our sellers for queries. That’s where we see the difference. Thank to the Team of William brown. Especially Lisa🙏🏽 Mr & Maguire.
I completed the sale of my property yesterday and received efficient, friendly and supportive assistance throughout the process. I'd like to extend my special thanks to the branch manager, Jason, as well as the sales progression manager Lisa and the senior negotiator Antonny for their patience and great service. Your professionalism made all the difference - thank you so much!
Excellent letting service. Hannah has been amazing throughout the whole process. I couldn’t have asked for anything more from a letting agents. I received regular updates and Hannah has always been so prompt to reply to my many questions/emails and gone out of her way to help me. I can’t wait to move into my new home.
I had an excellent experience with this letting agency. Hannah and Jack were outstanding—always prompt with their responses and incredibly professional. Hannah’s dedication to finding the perfect home for me and her insightful guidance were truly impressive. They always took the time to understand my needs and found me the perfect home quickly. Their attention to detail and efficiency made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend their services for anyone looking for a great home!
Based on my experience this is an excellent and extremely efficient letting agent. This is my first property for letting from the initial surveying to signing the contract, everything was made so easy and straight forward by the Hannah and Emma. They were nice friendly, polite and easy to deal with, explained what i needed to do, never had any problems apart from minor confusion, any reports have been dealt with immediately.
Not very happy with the customer service we were promised - we viewed our new property and even the person who showed us around said it’s very poor needs a deep clean and attention to works. Hannah said works that needed doing in the property like wear and tear before we moved in and wasn’t all done it’s just a hassle to get done and now the contracts been signed they don’t care at all and just pass us to property management. They also put the tenancy date the same day we got the keys however it was gone 5pm in the evening even though we said we needed to move in the next day due to their times being so late and rushed everything and didn’t complete all the works and started the tenancy from that day. They said they wanted us to be happy in our new home. Jack and Emma have been brilliant and tried to help as much as they can. Wouldn’t recommend if trying to rent. We are starting to regret this a little but hopefully the issues get resolved.
Fantastic team doing a great work behind the stage. I bought a flat using their services and they have all the patience in the world to conduct me from the beginning to the end of the process. A genuine pleasure having them as professionals on my side on this process. Again, said, fantastic team! Thank you! A big Thank you!
Excellent Lettings service. Hassle free vetting procedure and genuinely friendly staff. Jack Percival Lettings Negotiator was a fantastic point of contact and guided us through the process with ease. He went over and above, always smiling and helpful. Highly recommend.
Jack Percival has been so helpful, patient and polite from the start! Helped me find my flat! He made my home renting experience incredibly smooth and enjoyable. He is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly cared about finding the perfect property for me. I highly recommend William H Brown for anyone looking to buy or sell a home! Thank you again Jack✨☺️
So so chuffed with my experience so far with William H Brown Colchester. From start to finish from finding the property to being approved on our dream family home we have been treated with respect, communicated with often and provided with clear and concise information through each step. I cannot wait to move into my new home and I’m thrilled that we have found a property through William H Brown. Huge thank you to Jack for responding to my endless emails and helping us get the family home of our dreams. We look forward to continuing our journey to move in day with you.
My experience with William H Brown at Colchester branch was very wonderful. Jack and his team who were responsible for the letting were very professional and proactive. The response time to every clarification was swift. I give the team 5 5-star rating for timely support in securing the accommodation.
We have recently been assisted by the lettings team at William H Brown Colchester in the process of viewing and then related admin for a local rental. Both Jack and Hannah have been brilliant! Speedy response via email and phone and they explain everything clearly and have made the whole process easy! Both are very helpful and polite.
We have recently started renting a flat through William H Brown. It has been an easy process thanks to Hannah and Emma. They have been wonderful and so helpful! Would recommend to anyone going through this company if they wanted to start renting.
William H Brown have been fantastic!! As a first time buyer I was a little unsure of the process and what I thought would be a daunting and stressful time has been the complete opposite! The whole process from beginning to end has been very easy and Lisa Dove has been amazing! Lisa kept in touch the whole way through, answering any questions I had and kept me updated every step of the way, so a big 'THANK YOU' to you Lisa. I would highly recommend W.H Brown and the team to anyone who is looking to buy a property and will defiantly be using them again in the future!!
Hannah was great by helping us with each and every process of renting our new house through William H Brown . She was patient with us during the process of verifying our information . We had a lot of questions and she answered them and made us feel very comfortable and at peace with the rent process. Even when we requested for the house viewing after the initial virtual tour . She accommodated that and made that happen with her team. Thank you Hannah and the team at William H Brown.
Whilst selling our house we spoke to Matty who valued and completed our viewings. Matty was brilliant and made each appointment feel relaxed (something I really valued whilst looking after my energetic 8 month old and rescue dog). Would 100% be a returning customer if we hadn't found our dream home!
Our experience with William H Brown at Colchester branch was very good. We walked in the office one Saturday day desperate because our favorite house was gone, and asked the staff to have a viewing on the same day but they said it is very difficult. After half an hour or so, we received a call from them telling us if we could attend to see one of our choices. We went there and we finally were so lucky and ended up taking one of the properties that Hannah McCreath showed us very kindly. I am putting in 4 stars because our experience is just starting and I don't know how the agency will continue during the tenancy, but I'm very happy so far.
Would 100% recommend. Jason and Antonny have be great and we have sold and found our new home in under 3 weeks so very happy. They replied to emails and answered all our phone calls very quickly and done everything we asked of them. Our house sold within the estimated range originally given which is great. Couldn't be happier. They were also very kind and welcomed us into the office for meetings with our baby and toddler which was incredible helpful. Giving them paper and crayons ect to keep them happy. Small things but it makes all the difference for a process which could easily be stressful. Wouldn't use anyone else in the future if we for some reason move house again. Thanks again, Tanya and Ant.
We decided to use William H Brown to sell our house in Great Horkesley, Antonny and the team has been incredibly helpful even in a difficult market they managed to get many viewings and gave us feedback after every viewing and also were very honest to us with their advice on what we can do to get us sold quickly for a very good price. I strongly recommend using their whole team for their services!
I have had the absolute pleasure in dealing with Kirsty the last few weeks whilst applying for a mortgage. She was incredibly professional and we instantly felt at ease with her and her excellent advice. She made the whole process painless and easy and I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat
5***! Jason and the team have been amazing! The team at William H Brown sold our house in less than 2 weeks over the Christmas period. Within minutes of sending an enquiry to value our home, we received a call back! Jason came to value our property the follow day (a couple of days before Christmas) with the property going live on Boxing Day and we sold the property the first week of January! Jason has now also found us the house of our dreams and our 'forever home'. He contacted us first to let us know about a new property that was coming to market and that it was going to tick all of the boxes for us, which it did... it is everything we were looking for and more. Jason secured us a fantastic deal on the property and our offer was accepted this morning and we now cannot wait to move in! Jason - we honestly cannot thank you enough.The service has been completely faultless. Very professional, friendly and responsive! We would not hesitate to use Jason and the team at William H Brown again and would recommend to anyone. Thank you!
Generally, it an interesting experience with Williamhbrown and a very positive one. The staff member Jack Percival was professional and responsive, promptly addressing any inquiries or concerns I have had regarding my housing needs. I believe the official website is user-friendly and provides valuable information on availability of properties. I appreciate the agency's commitment to transparency and efficiency in facilitating housing arrangements.
Being first time buyers, we didn’t really know much about the whole process but Anthony took his time with us. He was patient, very informative, helpful and always happy to guide us and answer any questions we had. He has been truly amazing and helped us find our first property. It has been easy to get hold of him and he’s very professional and easy to speak to. He has made a daunting process as stress free as possible and we are thankful! Anthony is excellent at his job and we will be recommending to friends and family.
Jack has been absolutely amazing. After not finding what we were looking for at our first scheduled viewing, he managed to pull up 2 additional properties there and then to show us, and took us to view them straight away. If it wasn’t for Jack putting the effort in & going the extra mile, we would’ve quite literally been homeless when our current tenancy came to an end. His efforts did not stop there, after going forward with a property he has continued to go above and beyond for us. Communication has been incredible, and he got everything sorted for us in such great time. Couldn’t be happier, definitely recommend.
Amazing team. William H Brown is the best when it comes to buying properties. Ashley Sampson and the team are extremely professional and very helpful. They helped me from start to finish without any problems. I am amazed as to how without putting in a lot of effort the buying process was completed with in a very small time scale. I will always choose them in future. Thank you all very much once again.
We were looking for a property to rent in Colchester following an unexpected move from Ipswich and feel really lucky to have dealt with Emma. After really bad experiences with other agents in the area she went above and beyond to find a property for us that was suitable and even called a few days after we moved in to check we were ok and wish my daughter a happy birthday. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the team here, they made our move stress free and easy.
We had a fantastic experience with William H Brown and especially Hannah. From start to finish Hannah was extremely friendly and helpful, truly professional and her kindness and dedication made the process very positive and stress free. We would highly recommend this agency.
Jack, Hannah and Emma have been absolutely wonderful! My fiancé and I are moving into our first home together and they have all been brilliant. The customer service is amazing, they have all been very attentive and the communication has been great. They have answered all our first time renting questions and given us a lot of information and advice on what to do. 100% recommend renting or buying through them. The letting agency will be our go to again when we change properties!! Thank you guys so much <3
Absolutely fantastic service, they were always available whenever we wanted to view the house we were in the process of buying. It took us longer than expected to complete on our dream home but the people at William H Brown were patient with us and kept us informed every step of the way. We absolutly can't fault them. Thanks you William H Brown!
My first time to rent property with this agency. Hannah is very helpful and with quick response. She answers to all my enqiuries with patient and help to arrange for a property view ASAP. Emma also helps me a lot in guiding me when property view, so that I can make a quick & right decision. Thank you Hannah & Emma.
An extremely warm and kind person, Elena is one of the best advisor at William Brown. Even though we haven't found anything yet, her kindness to go out of her way and ask about well being is just so highly appreciated. I truly like her approach and she will be a true gem where ever she goes. She is a great asset to William Brown agency.!
We had a wonderful letting service from William H Brown, especially Emma and Jack. They were very professional. Since the day from viewing, they had regular follow-up with us and were always available whenever we had any kind of queries. Thanks for this amazing service. Highly I recommend. Cheers
We had a fantastic experience with the agency, especially with Hannah. Her assistance in finding and renting a house was invaluable. She was not only incredibly helpful but also displayed a high level of professionalism throughout the process. Hannah's kindness and dedication truly made the entire experience positive and stress-free. I highly recommend this agency, thanks to the supreme service provided by Hannah.
I had an outstanding experience renting a property through William H Brown. Their customer service was top-notch, and I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Hannah, Emma, and Jack for their exceptional support throughout the process. They made the entire renting experience incredibly smooth, and I couldn't be happier with their service.
I have just rent an apartment managed by William H Brown and I am really satisfied with all the support provided by Hannah and Emma during the whole renting and moving process. All the communication was clear and timely, with all the hiccups in the process being sorted out quickly and professionally. I am really thankful for all the effort they have put to ensure that I had an accommodation in time for my overseas move.
I have recently completed a property let with WHB Colchester and I am happy to state that I have had a 5 star experience; Emma and Hannah have been amazing throughout and made sure that we are kept updated with everything and helped us all the way through. Good, timely communication, excellent service, outstanding response time and relentless efforts put in. Thanks Emma and Hannah.
Having had a nightmare journey selling my property if it wasn’t for the team at William H Brown I would be in hospital with a breakdown!! The team went far and above what you would expect of an Estate Agency. Always patient, always doing their best to get the job done ! Even the members of staff who were not actively involved in my sale helped when I called in or phoned in always ensuring I got what was needed! As said , all the staff were brilliant but I have to pull out Lisa the progress agent who without her the whole thing would have collapsed, Rachel who stood in when Lisa was away , Owen who patiently suffered my constant viewings and questions ! As a business this team is outstanding and I cannot praise them high enough! The care and passion to get the job done is second to none! As a person who has written and taught customer care in my career I feel I have the knowledge to know this team is special. And no, I don’t work for them and I am not being paid by them. You want an outstanding Estate Agency you will not do better than this one. I thank you all most sincerely!!!
Having dealt with various other letting agents before and my experience always being just 'ok', I honestly wasn't setting my hopes up when I placed my property with William H Brown. How wrong I was. The staff there are so thorough and genuinely care about my property and my preferences. Emma and her team are always able to answer any queries I have and the communication is above and beyond any other service I've experienced elsewhere. I will always recommend William H Brown and specifically Emma's team to other people when looking to let their property.
Our experience with Wlliam H Brown has been fantastic. Jack has been exceptionally brilliant from getting us a tenant in less than 3 days. He has been really good in relieving the stress that comes with letting Property. Thanks Jack, absolute star you are.Vida
UPDATED REVIEW: Originally, I had a great outlook on William H. Brown. However, I can’t help but believe this was a facade that has not lasted. The organisation has become unprofessional and, later, began treating me with negligence towards my requests. My original review: I’m a student who wanted to move into his flat instead of continuing to live in on-campus accommodation. I found a great property with William H. Brown, and to say the service was outstanding is the least. Emma, Katie and Hannah are three phenomenal ladies who made my first official move a pleasant experience. Responsive, caring and genuine - are three words to summarise the experience.
I cannot speak highly enough of the team at WHB at Culver Street. Emma and Hannah have both been absolutely first class from the start and all the way through the process, keeping me informed and working so hard to negotiate, what in my situation was less than a straightforward contractual situation. I would not hesitate to recommend them to landlord or tenant alike. As a Landlord I have dealt with my own tenancy previously; but quite frankly, seeing the professionalism of the team, what they deliver and the expertise they employ, I will return to the team at WHB without hesitation. They totally reassure me that all the legality and processes have been comprehensively covered, and more so, they clearly care about their work! Thank you Hannah & Emma so very, very much!
I rang William H Brown Estate Agents in the hope of finding a property to rent in quite urgent circumstances and got through to Hannah, who I must say has been nothing short of magnificent. Hannah has genuinely been amazing! She was compassionate to my situation but remained professional. She went above and beyond as far as I am concerned - she's clearly a busy lady but always remained in contact with me and answered every mundane question I had for her. She was knowledgeable on the geography of the area I will be relocating to. Hannah is most certainly an asset to William H Brown and, I would 100% recommend William H Brown off the back of my experience.
Both Hannah and Emma have made renting a property from William h brown so easy for us . Had a few problems on my side but they were able to help solve them. Can’t thank them enough for all that they have done over the past few weeks . They have been in constant contact with me about emails that need to be looked at and things that needed to be electronically signed ( I’m no good at this email thing lol ) . They are both a credit to William h brown . And extremely good at what they do . So had to be a 5 star rating.
I'm giving my 5 stars to Hannah McCreath for outstanding soft skills. Hard has been extremely professional in handling my rental process. She responded to all my emails promptly and was always willing to help. She's invaluable for her agency and I hope her managers can reward her hard work with promotion and a RAISE! Hannah You're a super star and I am grateful for your service 💛 Best regards ✨️
Great communication from everyone, Emma, Hannah and Jack work as one team, they all responded quickly and clearly communicate with each other. Found a tenant within 4 days of listing, they answered all our questions quickly and talked us through the tenancy agreement and tenants reference findings. Nothing was too much trouble, We would recommend them 100%,
I had a great experience with William H Brown recently. Hannah was very supportive and always available. She answered all of my questions and gave me advice when needed. The process of renting was very fast even though I was still abroad!
Colchester branch were fantastic, proactive and good communication throughout, well negotiated and special mention for Lisa Dove who was amazing at progressing the sale. If she ever decides to move to Norfolk there is a job waiting for her! Thank you to all the team for a great job. Highly recommended!
The experiences with William H Brown in both sale and letting team are exceptional. Lisa Dove gave us lots of support for the property purchase. Hanna and Emma in the lettings team are very professional and friendly. Both my husband and I feel reassured that they are managing the property. They kept us well informed at every step. Thank you!
Emma and Hannah recently helped me in renting my Colchester Property and they were both amazing. My property was rented in a few weeks without bothering me, communication was excellent on updates and documentation. Everything was managed so well. would highly recommend them
I have just begun the process of renting through william h brown and i have to say the care and speed with which Lucy handle our enquiry was exceptional she is truly a great asset to their team and is such a great pleasure to speak too and interact with. She went out of her way to pair us to the right property she looked at what we wanted and found a perfect place for us, she called us rather than emailing so was quickly told about a property and able to book a viewing the same day where upon seeing it we decided to take it.
Recently moved to a lovely new apartment with William H Brown and right from the very start to finish Hannah has been extremely helpful and readily available to answer any related queries. Hannah, Emma and Lucy are very professional and make a marvellous team. Massive thank you to Hannah for being so proactive and making the moving process an enjoyable one. I have had an amazing experience and would highly recommend Hannah, the entire team and William H Brown anytime :)
My Partner and I have recently moved into our first home together and William H Brown made the whole experience go incredibly smoothly! Hannah and Katie have communicated clearly and consistently throughout the whole process and we cannot thank them enough for their hard work and commitment. Both of the property viewings were informative and easy, and Hannah has been on hand to answer any questions from the get go. We are confident that they will be reliable and quick if we run into any troubles throughout the duration of our contract. We would both recommend them, and William H Brown in general, and are extremely grateful for their work in getting us settled.
I cannot recommend Phil and his team highly enough. From initial contact to completion we had nothing less than brilliant service. Our house sold quickly and the support we received from Jo whilst the move progressed was fantastic and very reassuring. Part of our chain was with a well known online estate agent and the difference was immense you really do get what you pay for! We had reliable, professional people working for us who were committed to excellent customer service throughout and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Phil, Jo and the rest of the team!
