Top class service from start to finish from Charlotte, George, Tom and Janet. George kept us updated and informed every step of the way and offered advice when needed. Browns did all the viewings for us which was a great help as it was Mums home we were selling. All the staff were very helpful and friendly and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone wanting to sell their home. I will certainly use them in the future if the need arises.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Tom, George, Jan and Charlotte were all fabulous when selling my house. They were excellent and keeping me up to date at all times. From the valuation to completion I am glad I went with them. After the sale to completion Tom was still involved making the process as smooth as possible speaking to lawyers and moving things on. Brilliant service, made everything easy and they are all so personably, friendly and genuinely care about what they do. Thank you!

Brillaint service! We sold our property in Otley using the Yeadon Branch of WH Brown. Charlotte made the valuation process so easy and she was extremely helpful. George and Tom managed the viewings and liaised with us at all times, everything was handled very professionally. Tom was always updating us and chasing actions throughout the chain. He was totally dedicated to our sale and went above and beyond to help along the way. Thank you to all the team!

I can’t thank George, Tom, Charlotte and Janet enough for their help with the sale of my house. From the start with the evaluation, house viewings through to pushing the solicitors on at the very end. Communication has been amazing the whole way through. Every member of the team were aware of each stage which has been great when phoning for updates. George genuinely is the nicest guy and is passionate about his work. Thanks so much again x

Well what can I say about Yeadon William H Brown? I wouldn’t sell my house with anyone else if they paid me. 3 of the most brilliant lads (Tom, George and Ben) helped us out massively every step of the way. No hard talks or massive pitches, just great communication and a brilliant laugh along the way. They say buying/selling a house is one of the most stressful things in life. Not with these guys it isn’t. Thank you for everything lads! See you next Tuesday!

I do not have words for this level of unprofessionalism and incomptence

Just poor on every level. Communciation has been abysmal from the start. I feel I have been lied to on several occasions and it is clear most members of staff don't give a damn. Avoid I have the great displeasure having to deal with these people over the last fortnight regarding a property I want to rent. There have been issues right off the bat, including an agent called George not turning up to a viewing because he forgot and it taking four days and six phonecalls for me to be told that no-one in the office I was calling was going to call me back and I needed to call elsewhere. No apologies offered at all. It got worse when I put in an offer on a property though. When I put in my offer I was asked some questions and these identified I would need someone to guarantee my lease. That's fine, I'd anticipated that and my parents were willing to do this for me. I dealt with an agent called Sam who called them before putting in my offer to ensure they would meet the criteria for a guarantor. At this point, or at any point during the process, Sam never gave any indication that they did not. This only came to light approximately a week before I was due to move in (my parents are semi retired and generate a portion of their income through investment property and the stock market. This was apparently unacceptable for a guarantor. Which would have been fine, if Sam had told them that from the start). We found a solution, where my parents would pay my first six months rent and I'd then rent from the landlord. I had to chase (approximately four phone calls) to get this answer from him and even then, I had send him back to renegotiate as he had not done this properly (he attempted to agree a six month lease when both me and the landlady wanted something longer). When putting in my offer, I had agreed to go into a zero deposit scheme and paid £250 in order to do this. The issue with the gaurantee also took my out of this scheme, although this was never communicated to me at all. If I had known, then I would have reconsidered my position. Because Sam did not mention the problem when it arose, I was not afforded this opportunity. The only warning I had that extra money was needed, came to light when the invoice arrived and they had stuck an additional £1200 onto the fees. The only possible inkling we had about this was a phone call from Sam about 20 minutes before the invoice was sent, which lasted for all of 30 seconds and briefly mentioned a deposit. Something that I thought had already been paid and had no reason to suspect otherwise. I want to be clear here, the fact I failed the checks is not the problem (I'm a recent university graduate moving from part time to full time work and separating from my partner. I'm not naive to the fact I do not look good on paper). The lack of communication and the lack of care from Sam and his director, Rachel is. They prevented me from making a decision with the full facts. I have been left feeling utterly lied to and like I have no choice but to find an additional insane amount of money or leave me and my children homeless. Salt was further rubbed into the wound as when I called Rachel to discuss this, she sadly decided to double down on the lie that Sam had discussed this deposit with me and implied I was making it up. I have emails to confirm this deposit was never mentioned. No apologies were forthcoming, just a shoulder shrug and an offer to refund my holding deposit as well as a sly comment that it's a landlord's market right now, which is just further confirmation of how little they value potential tenants. No property is worth having to deal with these people.

After just completing on my house, I would like to say thank you to WHBrowns Yeadon for their help in the process. Although they were my sellers solicitors and not mine, they were so supportive and helpful, always keeping me informed. Tom was so positive and reassuring and always there if I was stressing! In fact all the team were great..thanks Tom, Charlotte & team. 👍

I have been more than happy with the service and support from the WHBrown team in Yeadon from beginning to end. Particularly George, but also Tom and Charlotte, have been approachable, available and proactive at every stage. The whole process has gone smoothly and I'm delighted with the outcome. I've already been recommending WHBrown Yeadon to family and friends who are thinking of moving and will certainly continue to do so. Big thanks to everyone who was involved.

Its Rental Payments

I found my letting agent to be brilliant Mr N Bourne and I prefer to only deal with him as I found him to be quiet honest and extremely fair, I don’t like dealing with other people in the office as they don’t seem to be able to keep to their word.

Not forgetting Ethan who warmthly welcomed us and assisted us when we first visited William H Brown.

William H Brown or Sequence, both the same... crap!

This is basically the same review as my Sequence Review, but since they're essentially the same company, why re-invent the wheel?I honestly like to see the best in people or companies, but William H Brown is one of the worst.As a tenant, dealing with them is a nightmare. Everything from arranging repairs, to dealing with contracts.Everything is outsourced; they're nothing but secretaries throughout their entire company.Living in Yorkshire, why do I need to ring someone in Liverpool to tell them a tap is loose, and then wait weeks for a response?And if that 1 person is off work, no one else can pick up that task?Why do I have to send multiple emails and make several telephone calls to get answers, and then be badgered by them for "not doing something", or anyone external to their system?Or the fact that they don't know, nor have access to, their own systems in order to answer any of my questions.Literal blame shifting to anyone but them.And I've only dealt with them for 6 months.

Tom in the Yeadon Branch was very helpful when we were purchasing a property marketed by W H Brown. Clear and quick communication, willing to push things forward when required as well.

Tom was the estate agent dealing with the sale of the property I’ve just bought, if it wasn’t for his help hounding both sets of solicitors I wouldn’t be moving in today and I’d imagine I’d have lost the rate on the mortgage we were offered. Professional and friendly, as were the rest of the team involved at WH Brown. Can’t fault them throughout

An incredibly poor service

Quite possibly one of the worst estate agents we have dealt with.We were contacted by one of the agents from the Welwyn Branch, who repeatedly told us that unless we had our house valued, we would not be taken seriously by Vendors. After being called on the third occasion by the agent, we decided to get a valuation and I contacted him by return, to let him know that we had. Even though the valuation had been the day before, the agent told me that it would be useful if he also valued my house. This would have been the fourth valuation in the space of 6 months.We were then called by someone from their call-centre and although, seemingly impossible, the service was even worse.All that the lady we spoke to wanted to do, was sell us a product. No real interest in us, or what we were looking for in the housing market. I finally gave in and asked how much the service would cost - she had no idea. When I questioned how she could try to sell me a product, where she did not know the cost, she became flustered and told me that her she would liaise with her "boss". The first time, he apparently told her that he would provide me with info, as he was in my area. When I asked when, she told me he was not, but he could be. When questioned further, he was not going to be in our area. So, I asked her to get him to email me - he was not able to. I then asked her to get him to call me and I was told he would. One week later, she called me back, not remembering me at all. I then got the whole sales pitch again. Enough was enough. I asked to make a formal complaint and was told her "boss" would call me, as he took these things seriously. Still waiting.You are treated as a number and not a person. I am not really sure how they can still be in business.

Fantastic turnaround in Lettings

I have had a very difficult relationship with WH Brown over my years as a professional landlord and considered them to be among the worst agents in my area .However they really have got their act together, in recent times, due to a change in Management in Lettings starting with Izabela and latterly with Olivia .Olivia has been fantastic not only has she done what she said, she has achieved more than 30% more rent than I was getting and a new tenant was found interviewed and signed up within a week with no hassle or inconvenience to me .Thanks for making my work life easier Olivia I cant recommend you enough and won't hesitate in using WH Browns in future .

Unprofressional and tell lies to get you to sign. We rented a house that was with them but also with another estate agent (weird) they advertised it as one price on right move with no deposits and they tried to change the prices after we signed. Promised us the house was going to be painted and plastered before we moved in and when we moved in it was a horror show, including mouldy food still in the fridge! Baring in mind this was the middle of a pandemic. When we called to complain we were told they no longer worked with the other company and did not deal with this property at all anymore. Keys were lost in their offices when we went to move in, and just a total lack of organisation or care for their tenants. A year later when we move out surprise surprise it is them that want the keys back to rent the house out again.Unless you are desperate for a house I would avoid!

The service offered by the whole team at Yeadon goes very much beyond 'house sale'. All advice offered was given in a considered,professional yet very friendly manner. Queries by email or telephone message were answered promptly. The support offered by the team in potentially stressful situations was invaluable. I cannot thank them enough.

Let down and disappointed

After careful consideration I decided to use the estate agent william h Brown to sell my house. After signing the agreement I was waiting 2 weeks for the photographs which I thought was way to long. When house finally went live It sold within a few days. After some weeks I heard nothing I was also using their solicitors Black's. My house was in joint names but I was the main name and stressed I would like all correspondence. I understand it has to be sent to both but it was all sent to my daughter from solicitor which she didn't notice as it was in her spam email. This delayed us by 2 weeks I was very angry as william brown had given them the details. I received no explanation so I dealt with Black's solicitor if I wanted updates etc the were absolutely brilliant. For the money estate agent charged I expected better service. I was not going to give a review however after weeks of completion I received a call off william brown asking if I lived at my old address and would I be interested in selling!!! I can't believe they still had me in their books and did not know I had completed what utter horrible and inconsiderate service. Hopefully I will not be selling in the future but will think very careful about who will sell my house.

Great service. We just bought a house with Thomas through this branch. We are first time buyers so didn't really know what we were doing but Tom was very patient and helpful with every step of the process and would call to check how everything was going along the way. Very grateful and would recommend to anyone looking for a property
