5/5
GoogleThe staff at William H Brown was very quick and supportive. I was able to move in less than 2 weeks! They guided me as a new renter go through the whole process of referencing and everything else (did I mention, in less than 2 weeks!!!!). I talked to Ashley, and he was very helpful and handsome too.

TrustpilotRegretted signing the contract. Beware!
Signed up to sell house with William H Brown and regretted it. For some reason the Branch i was dealing with took it upon themselves to string me along for 6 months. In short, the property never went 'live'. No For Sale sign, no photo's online. I got the impression they worked in their own bubble, and took on the business to possibly stop me going elsewhere. Beware!

TrustpilotAwful
Awful. Was interested in a property marketed by this company and got myself booked into a viewing. The person who showed me around the property had quite clearly just memorised the fact-sheet (which anyone could have done) and could not respond to simple questions. He was more interested in making sure his car did not get ticketed than showing me around the house.Why would anyone use these people as selling agents? Absolutely add no real value.

TrustpilotThey viewed my property to rent
They viewed my property to rent, then changed energy suppliers without my knowledge or agreement. I only found this out after I had rejected their services. I was told that they were in partnership with 'Smart' energy, and it was in the contract (which was never accepted or signed)BEWARE! There are a lot of hidden charges in contract which are generally inclusive with other agents.Read - check - read again, before giving instructions!

It's like dealing with 2nd hand car sales, all promises, pressures and disappearing acts.Avoid these..... there are far more open and communicative estate agents out there.

Staffs of William H Brown (a division of Sequence Ltd) are full of bullies and harassers with no sense of good customer's value. Thye breached my confidentiality which had caused me and my family serious emotional distress but when I raised compalint, everyone began denying claiming that it wasn't them and niot investigation has been provided to support that it was actually investigated, no interview had been granted in person. Too bad.

TrustpilotRude office staff
Rude office staff, close early with no notification. No call backs, agent showing property had zero interest or knowledge in the property. Waste of time! I viewed a house at 1645 and tried to call the office to put in a offer at 17:05. The Office stated on their website and on the voice mail there were open until 18:00.

GoogleI cannot recommend William H Brown enough. I am in my 3rd year of using them to let an apartment in Chelmsford, and they have made the process so effortless. Both Ashley and Aggi have been amazing - always keeping me updated every step of the way, and making sure things go smoothly. Thank you so much!

Made and enquiry as a buy to let property investor on Wednesday. I am still waiting to hear back. Check out the board/management team. There are 11 members listed. However they are all 100% male. You dont need to know any more about how this business thinks and operates. I guess that is reflected it its TP scores. Although they are an estate agency what do you expect!

GoogleI have had the pleasure of communicating with Ashley Whitaker and Beth Living for a few months now and the service I have received is amazing. I appreciate their warm friendly but professional approach. Yes from my personal experience I would recommend William H Brown.

GoogleBooked a viewing, estate agent turned up without keys after waiting for them to arrive at the property. Phoned 3 times to arrange the next day but received no return call. Went to another agent advertising same property who informed me that it had been viewed and taken that morning! Requested viewings for other properties from this company and they have not responded. Very unprofessional and frustrating, save yourself a lot of trouble and use another agent.

Stephen Creed does not deserve his job title I called him for weeks about my property that was for sale and he never got back to me. So rude and up himself would never use them again.

TrustpilotIf you want an agent who will NEVER call back.
If you want an agent who will NEVER call you back, then look no further than William H Brown. Absolute joke, and the only refreshing note is that I'm not alone in my experience. Run away from this agent if you can. I fail to believe they are still able to be a success based on this level of incompetence.

TrustpilotSequence are terrible avoid avoid avoid
We have been without heating and hot water for a significant time now and sequence have shown zero ability to assist or rectify the situation. Sequence have repeatedly taken inordinate amount of time to book in work to property.Sequence / William h brown are a woefully inadequate company. Staff do not care and communication is poor. Read the many other similar reviews and avoid at all cost

TrustpilotWilliam H Brown
William H Brown, the estate agents who make your move stress free .... really?? It’s been nothing but stress. We have been trying to liaise with this company in Suffolk for nearly 6 months in a supposed chain free purchase. They are not truthful and do not act on your instruction. Not worth their fee in my opinion and rude into bargain. It’s a miracle if they even return your calls!!!

GoogleThanks a lot for Ashley, Aggy and all Chelmsford branch team, you handled a so complex business in so short time, and got the best result, well done! I and my wife are all very happy to put our house in your hand!

TrustpilotOne star is one star too many
One star is one star too many. If you want your property to go live in an unorganised order without your approval, do not want any feedback from viewings, have your phone messages and emails ignored, receive no updates on progress and want your sales negotiator to be disrespectful then use these.

Jamie was great when we were interested in a property. Always kept us up to date and delivers great customer service.

GoogleI was looked after by Ashley & Agathe, both of whom were fantastic. They helped find me 2 properties in the Chelmsford area matching every requirement I needed. I cant express enough how amazing they were, making the whole process so easy & stress free. Thank you so much to you both.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

If i could give this company a 0 I would. Terrible company who have stolen our deposit and refused to answer emails. Borderline criminal conduct going on there so stay well clear. The boiler failed twice during our last month at the house. They tried to charge us for that damage which was absolutely not our fault. Still considering whether to take to court.

Worst company to deal with don’t let them sell your house don’t let them deal with your house at all because they will not sell it for you but you have really bad customer service avoid the best you can because they will only waste your time and your money the worst communication and the worst customer service
