Warning - Terrible Experience with WHBrown Letting Agent

I am writing this review to share my utterly disappointing experience with WHBrown Letting Agent. My encounter with them has been nothing short of a nightmare, and I feel compelled to warn others to avoid this agency at all costs.To start, the level of incompetence displayed by WHBrown is astounding. Their complete disregard for the well-being of their tenants is shocking. My attempts to address maintenance issues were met with negligence, as my complaints about moulded bathrooms, paint falling off walls, and faulty electrical work were conveniently ignored.Moreover, the racial insensitivity exhibited by WHBrown is deeply troubling. The lack of respect and condescending behavior from their staff members is not only unprofessional but also unacceptable. It is disheartening to experience such blatant disregard for human decency, making it clear that they prioritize profit over people.The final straw was when they left me and my children in a cold, uninhabitable house for a week. Despite consistently paying rent with no arrears, we have been treated with disrespect and utter disregard for our well-being.I implore anyone considering WHBrown Letting Agent for their property needs to steer clear. The level of service provided is abysmal, and their practices are not only unprofessional but also border on neglectful. My experience has been a stark reminder that tenants deserve better treatment and respect.Avoid WHBrown Letting Agent like the plague, and spare yourself the stress and anguish of dealing with such an unscrupulous agency.I have encountered them on two occasions at two different location and they are absolutely rubbish.

Avoid at all costs

Avoid at all costs, don't do what they say they are going to do, complete waste of time, told people viewing no need to remove shoes before entering my house even when they asked if they have too "just rude" didn't get the right type of people viewing one couple didn't even want this area they wanted about 5 miles away! Promised an open day that never happened. Now getting threatening letters about payment for an EPC they had already been given card details for payment, phoned 3 times no response just more threatening letters in the post, absolute shambles!

Great service from the sales team at William H Brown, Loughborough. Little issue during the whole buying process but any that did crop up were dealt with as smoothly as possible. Rich and Richard were extremely helpful, and the staff were all friendly and approachable. Would recommend!

Avoid at all cost!

It took us over a week to get a viewing of a house that we planned to buy. On the day of the viewing we had agreed to meet the agent outside the property. It was obvious it was a house of multiple occupation because when the agent failed to turn up we knocked on the front door. The estate agent had not told us the house was occupied and had no good reason for not showing up to show us round. I would advise to avoid these people if possible.

Don’t bother

Don’t bother, looked at a house that turned out to be rubbish anyway and they won’t leave you alone after getting details to see if they can sell you something or sell your property even if your not interested. They will call every week to annoy the hell out of you. Even kept calling when I was arranging my dad’s funeral!

Stevenage branch is a waste of time…

Stevenage branch is a waste of time recently a neighbour sold up and moved the new owners have decided to rent the property out for two years.Problems started to arise about a month after tenant moved in bins not put out prefers to hire a skip ( what do you pay council tax for) takeaways being delivered at 2am bright lights in my bedroom windows I don't mind people having a takeaway but show a little thought for others.Recently loud voices at four am then people coming to stay playing loud music very early in the morning ( two am)Being a shared drive parking in a manner that makes it difficult to use drive.Guttering falling down Stevenage branch notified months ago still nothing done in regards to this and other complaints now other neighbours have had enough and are complaining things like parking on the front lawn which now resbles a badly ploughed field.Landlord just as bad comments oh the tenants got issues it's upto them if they put the bins out (so rats are not a serious issue) loud music from car radios at two am is classed as anti social behaviour as stated if they want to eat takeaways about eight times a day that's fine but have some thought for the neighbours when ordering early in the morning this used to be the best area in the town with a five star rating now people feel their being pushed out by vermin.

I feel that I have to write a review

I feel that I have to write a review. I was asked to provide proof of ownership from the Land Registry before they put us on the market? I’ve never experienced having to do this with any other Estate Agent before? Felt it intrusive and unnecessary, and too personal? Is this ethical? Is it permitted? I thought this level of enquiry was up to the conveyancing solicitor, only on agreement of offer from prospective buyer. During the time with this company, not one person turned up. We did have several appointments just no shows. I know it can be a challenge when viewers may book but not follow through but we gave up with these agents.

If I could I wouldn't even give them…

If I could I wouldn't even give them any stars, I am a tennant from spalding branch and we have had problems after problems and takes ages for it to be "sorted" they send cowboy builders out that can't even do the job properly and the guy still hasn't gave us our money back, me my partner and our 3 year old son are currently sleeping in the living room as we can't even sleep in our own bedroom because of mould and damp, this started around the same time as last year. It is so cold we are using more heating then we should be, they say we are always waiting for the contractors to get back to them which can take weeks/months with no updat or no communication.

This company is absolutely hopeless

This company is absolutely hopeless. Unprofessional is an understatement. Chasing them for well over 3weeks to get back my tenancy deposit back and no one seem to be able to tell me when I can get my money back. I wish there was something less than one star.

Not trustworthy …

We applied to this company about a property we wanted to rent the day after it was advertised, when we finally got through to the office, they said they weren't arranging viewings at that time but they would keep us informed, the next day, this property was unlisted.We phoned the office and asked why and they said somebody had agreed to rent without viewing, how convenient!!!

My experience with William H Brown was overall a really positive one! Ram was professional, friendly and eager to help. He organised viewings quickly, and was keen to present other good options to me, when my first choice was snapped up. Would recommend their services when renting in Loughborough, they're the best agents I've been through yet.

Totally poor

Totally poor, left me over 3 months without universal credit. Needed a letter with priof of what rent i was paying yet repeatedly fobbed off and lied to, when they finally did after 2 and a half months, the amount was incorrect, then the 2nd attempt was the first with the correct amount written on a post it note stuck on top of the incorrect amount. Took the local councils intervention to get a correct one. Totally unprofessional .

Don't use them to "manage" your rental!

In August I decided to rent out my house. I was very nervous about the whole process as it was my first time and had 0 knowledge of what I needed to know as a landlord, so I decided the best road to take is to use an estate agent and pay them for the full management service...WRONG! I have had to chase the estate agents to sort out issues as I want to make sure my tenant is happy and looked after. I have been chasing since September and still not resolved. Their communication is poor and frankly I am disappointed in how once the contract is signed and you're paying their money, you don't hear anything from them...My tenant are also feeling the same way. Waste of money Don't do it!!

As an International Student at Lboro, Ram was fully supported and professional throughout the letting process. Responsive time was truly appreciated and crucial for me! Especially during these tougher times (Covid) and dealing with moving to a new country. Go with William H Brown, they are truly knowledgeable of the local market!PositiveResponsiveness

Thanks to Elliott Benson for helping me…

Thanks to Elliott Benson for helping me get my mortgage offer in 5 days, I always thought it would be so hard. With Tammy and Elliott at the other end of the phone, I was in my new home in 8 weeks. I couldn’t have done it without their help. Thank you so much guys!

Worst customer service. They were unresponsive, unprofessional, and failed to communicate effectively throughout the process. I had to chase them constantly for updates and information. I would not recommend them to anyone."
