I would thoroughly recommend Charles David Casson and the service they provide. There are numerous employees who I have dealt with over the 12 years and never had a problem that they cant help me with. Everyone seemly has superb communication with one another, as they all pass on messages very well. I feel they all know their clients' needs very well too, making sure they get to know their clients on a more personal level, if thats the relationship you want. I think they have the balance between professional and friendlier level just spot on actually. Which makes me feel my opinion matters! A very excellent team of people who its apparent are there for the landlord as well as the tennant. Thank you!

I am renting at an excellent location with an affordable price. My property manager Anjali is extremely good and quick at responding to the queries and problems. A big thumbs up to her in terms of resolving issues quickly.

Avoid this agency! Never again! I'll outline why I consider this agency incompetent and not worth recommending. I'll start chronologically. 1. The agency is lying. Before renting, I was told the mess was due to renovations. It turned out the agency doesn't deal with tenants well. I had to ask Colchester Council for help. 2. The agency tried to charge me for rubbish removal that was there before I moved in. 3. The flush tank leaked all day for over a month. The water consumption was exorbitant. 4. They tried to charge me for cleaning the room after I moved out. The agency loses again. This is a highly incompetent agency. As for the security deposit, that's the least of my worries. You forced me to live in a filthy house where no one cared about cleanliness, especially your agency. I hope people think twice before using your services!

We understand whenever there is a deposit claim it is an emotional time and that is why there is a deposit protection process in place. We are sorry to hear you feel this way and wish you all the best for your future.

Fantastic service from Charles David Casson! They found a great tenant quickly and kept me fully informed throughout every stage of the process. Professional, responsive, and incredibly efficient from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend them!

Extremely bad service, charged us over £500 for cleaning after leaving for a dirty oven and fridge. Terrible estate agents, left us with no heating during winter for 2 months and had the audacity to do this.

We're very sorry to read your review. As you have used an anonymous name we cannot investigate this. Please feel free to send in a complaint to our directors who will review this. We appreciate deposit deductions are an emotive subject and that is why we follow the deposit dispute process and deductions can only be made by agreement or via an independent arbitrator in line with deposit protection policies.

Service was wonderful at first in my sales process -listing the house, great photos, board up promptly. But as soon as the house was under offer, the service fell off a cliff. The estate agents representing the house I'm buying can't get hold of CDC, even for urgent queries, so come to me. My buyer had a survey 6 weeks ago which sparked a bit of renegotiation. This could have been relatively straightforward with prompt communication but over a month of chasing CDC and we're no nearer resolution (and almost every time I call I speak to a different team member who is now covering it with no idea of background or what is going on.) I've tried establishing deadlines - those Im buying from are getting nervous- but these are ignored. I've told them since I've signed a gazeal for my purchase I need to keep moving forward, but this is ignored too. I dont know if its lack of capacity, or competence, or simple disinterest, but their inability to offer the most basic support is pushing me to the point where I'll have no choice but to walk away from an advanced sale and start again. I'm only hanging in there because were got so far down the line, and its not the buyer's fault. But that can't go on forever. I genuinely feel this process would have been less stressful and moved more quickly had these estate agents not been involved at all. Such a shame.

Faye · 8 October 2025

Agent replied · 5 June 2025

Hi Faye, I believe the team are in contact with you and this is being handled. We appreciate the sale stage is very difficult when buyers renegotiate etc and it must be handled sensitively and if we've fallen short in any areas we will do our best to put that right.

"I solemnly and earnestly urge ..."

I solemnly and earnestly urge anyone considering renting with Charles David Casson agency to completely avoid. It was winter months, and within just the second week of renting. There was (No Heating), (No Hot Water), (No Communal Cleaner), even though all was officially declared in the contract. I called and emailed the agency as a matter of urgency due to the ice cold winter, the response was extremely slow and unbothered, they replied weeks later “we will sort it out”. A month went on and they didn’t. Still winter, Again I called and emailed, Another agent told me that my property manager had been “fired from the agency due to complaints”, didn’t surprise me in the slightest, so I told the new agent the problems with the property. After two additional months went on, an agent came and topped up the property meter, this agent said to me “the tenants had used to much heating why everything ran out”. I had never heard such nonsense in my life, it was winter and heating is a necessity. I also mentioned the cleaning, she said: “they are finding a new cleaner”. It didn’t sound sincere, it sounded like an excuse. Not to mention I also heard shuffling, like something living in the attic, I asked the another tenant who confirmed it was indeed what I thought, (RATS) living in the attic. This tenant told me that he also complained about the same issues but the agency did nothing. To cut a long story short, the property was utterly filthy and unhygienic, I’ve never seen anything like it, the same reoccurring issues happened many months after this and Casson was unbothered to fix them, they thought I was a fool, they thought wrong. So this time I called the council who came promptly to inspect the property. They found out the boiler had issues, hence no heating, no hot water. The second business director who was notified by the council was also at the property, he was simply unqualified, Unintelligent and lacking in every quality to run an agency. He tried his best to be condescending with me by making it out as if the issues were in my head, fortunately the council was there and could see the Issues, I put him in his place with words of wisdom and he went as silent as a mouse, which made me laugh Inside my head. I knew it wouldn’t be long before I left. God is great.

PHD · 17 August 2023

Agent replied · 16 August 2025

Whilst your personal comments are not appreciated, we are sorry you felt this way. You lived in a shared house and yes the heating did break down a few times due to a boiler failure but this was attended to promptly on every occassion. As discussed with you in detail we were let down by the regular cleaner and so a new one was found, however it was also the responsibility of all tenants to keep the kitchen clean and not leave washing up etc. As you are aware the council attended the property and found it to be n a compliant state and they did not require any further action. As a gesture of goodwill we did instruct a pest controller to investigate at the landlords expense and there was no evidence of rats in the loft. We did not receive complaints from the other 5 tenants you shared the house with. We wish you all the best with your future.

I’ve been living in this flat since 2019, and throughout that time Dawn has consistently been excellent. She’s always prompt, helpful, and reliable whenever I’ve needed support. Her clear communication and willingness to follow things through have made my experience with the agency genuinely positive. I really appreciate her professionalism and the way she makes everything feel straightforward

I have been impressed with the marvellous services received from Charles David Casson Estate Agent from Chelmsford. The reason why I had chosen this agent was that other estate agents were not willing to help me to rent with the support of a guarantor as I started my business less than a year ago. So I can not prove my income due to not submitting tax returns yet. Macey was extremely helpful. I was amazed to experience her dedication, enthusiasm and communication skills. She is simply the best! I am extremely grateful to Macey Smith and her team for their time, attention, understanding and tremendous help in every aspect of this letting. I am more than happy to recommend Charles David Casson and especially Macey Smith to my family and friends in the future. Thank you so much for everything Macey!!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
