A severe lack of communication ability

I now know why this estate agent has such a poor reputation. As a result of living a good distance from her, we have been searching for a retirement property near our daughter for some time and chanced upon one in a very good location. We e-mailed the office that advertised the property with a few pertinent questions as we would find a return journey on the off chance of being able to get the answers and to gain a viewing almost impossible in a reasonable timeframe.It would appear that others who have had dealings with this company are totally correct as the request has been totally ignored without even an apparent willingness to acknowledge receipt let alone be a little proactive.I would advise any pensioner considering using this Estate Agent to seriously consider whether they would be able to elicit any response let alone information from them.Extremely poor service for both the seller and any prospectve buyer.

Absolutely disgusted and disappointed!

I am one of the landlords, who has made a huge mistake of giving one of my properties to rent and manage @ Norwich branch.Without going into too much details, all I can say that I am still waiting after months, for my shortfall of the first rent payment (though the tenant has paid in full) and my struggle and agony is still ongoing as the person concerned neither takes my call nor pays me. The rest of the staff is either rude or very abrupt, it's completely a mess if you ever made a mistake of dealing with the Norwich branch, I guess it may be similar story in their other branches.Hoping that the company will see some sense and remit the shortfall, as I am going to KEEP CHASING them for money due to me.SO FAR a horrible experience!!!

Absolutely diabolical

Absolutely diabolical. Not very good property management what so ever. The store to the property management is really bad communication. Does not reply to emails. Constant ignorance and even when a complaint was raised with enough evidence to prove they were not managing my property and ignoring my emails, the complaints team were even very rude. They changed my tenancy contract from fully managed to rent collect without consent. Didn’t keep up with inspections on the house during my short time on fully managed. Took weeks to get replies for issues with my tenants and faults. Didn’t chase up when the tenant was breaking the tenancy agreement. I don’t know what they did when managing my property but it wasn’t what my new estate agents does which on paper is suppose to be the same thing. They charge for all sorts of fees that no other lettings agency does! Would not recommend at all! The only good experience I had was with the deposits department and accounts departments. Very friendly and helpful! I’m now with a different lettings agency and they work above and beyond for their landlords and tenants!

If your looking for illegal HMO WilliamHBrown with Sequence Homes Bridge Street Northampton

Ifyour looking for illegal HMO this is the company you want, because I have told them about one next door to me and they don't give a S- -t and this is not the first time this as happened this is the second time so they don't learn as long as they get there money, one of the couple that should live there has only been here for 3 weeks in what will be 1 year this weekend. And she's due again early August sometime because some of the man and vans have moved on for what could be a week or two from past experiences. And yesterday blocked me for telling them this on social media because they don't like the truth, this is the Bridge Street branch Northampton town, and the so called manager of this branch put the phone down on me and told me I didn't know what I was talking about. There's wooden pallets everywhere even use one as a door step out the front and also a shopping trolley out there as well which has been there for a year and they fill that with crap, the back garden looks like a homeless area with drink cans everywhere.

WHBrown Norwich ‘Select’Firmly believe…

WHBrown Norwich ‘Select’Firmly believe we lost our purchase at the last minute and after spending £1500 due to the Chinese whispers of their sales staff. Rude, arrogant, didn’t tell us vendor had withdrawn a fortnight earlier, tried to make it our fault for not picking up a mobile phone call when advised we had no signal and we’re both working. DONT go near them, unprofessional and untrained. Refuse to allow solicitors to do the job, constant interference in sales process.

Through Taylor, my family got a very nice residence which we still miss now. Very spacious and situated in the town accessible to shops, schools, the NHS, and transport. Lovely landlord. All the services were quick and on point. Great service. We recommended it to our friends. I suggest this to others as well. Well done Taylor and thank you for your service.

Disgusting customer service

Disgusting customer service, all talk no action, took advantage if an 80 year old couple to tie them into a contract, now to be told another 28 days notice on top of that is required!!!! Will NEVER ever recommend this agent to any body! This is the Ware branch! Forever breaching their contract! Have got in touch with solicitors and now have an amazing court case against them! They’ve destroyed my grandparents future because of this contract!

Made on offer on a house they had

Made on offer on a house they had. 4 days later finally got a letter confirmation. Didn’t hear nothing back for another 4 days asking if we would increase it. Offered 5k more. 2 days later he apparently rejected our offer and is going with another seller. From what we was told on the phone they have another offer but their house isn’t sold. But had now sold. I’m guessing this agent was delaying us as much as possible so they could sell that house and make double commission. We’ve made another higher offer and shock they are ignoring us and not forwarding our offer

We are landlords with a tenant that refuses to leave, they totally refuse to help, saying there is nothing that can do, we were given notice , and needed to move into a bungalow we were renting, but they refused to help, even though we have a 3 month old baby, effectively making us homeless, saying well your tenant has rights, what about ours, all they want is your money, and you as a person is not important, avoid, avoid , avoid.

Unprofessional

Had a viewing with this company for 1pm. Arrived at 1.03 -thanks to working as an NHS nurse and of course it being busy. Tried calling them en route (6 times, no answer to any of them) and then got to property and EA was gone. Tried calling again, still no reply. Just called (after they did not respond to my voicemail, I contacted them, though they told me they were aware id called repeatedly - why didnt they call me back then?) and spoke to a very aggressive person who basically said they are too busy to answer the phone and that the website isn't up to date. Really unimpressed - I appreciate i was 3 minutes late but they could have at least given me 5 minutes or answered their phone. As a community NHS nurse, petrol is really valuable to me and this was a complete waste of time after a busy and stressful morning. This was further compounded by the rude person who answered the phone. Absolutely would not use this EA again and do not recommend at all.

Worst ever for letting management

I am a landlord of 35 years. Lettings management (Harlow) are simply awful. Expensive quotes for basic maintenance jobs, poor administration, charge for things not approved, don't call back, having to chase refunds due, no apologies for errors. These are not one-off problems. I'm so fed up with the lack of management that I pay dearly for monthly, I've decided to sell up. Another tenancy off on the market pushing up prices for the poor renters! Thanks WHB

They did not take the time to respond to my rental enquiries. I am disappointed as I believed Taylors to be a reputable name. Update: I heard from the Northampton branch, but they then ignored my response. The flat I was interested in has now been let. I regret to say that the service I have received has been dreadful.

This company is terrible

This company is terrible. Totally waste of time. So unprofessional. The staff in the office have zero customer skills this branch is in Nottingham. I put my property for sale with them. And they advertise the property for 4 weeks and not floor plant no EPC which they charge me 60 pounds for. They keep saying we are updating the website for 2 week's. Everytime you call the office there is no one there to answer. Zero information nothing waste of time. So much frustration.

Dreadful, beyond belief and blatantly lie!

Dreadful! I would not want anyone to go through the same experience that I have had with this company!Tried to cover up what they had done by deleting part of an email which they thought was evidence! Caught them out and reported them.I was waiting for a response from them with regards to a new build property that I had paid a deposit on and instead of getting back to me after being strung along with lies for months they placed the property back on the market (Found on Rightmove without informing me ) whilst their client still had my deposit. They then lied on numerous occasions saying they had asked their client to refund the deposit but it was proven that they hadn't requested and were just lying despite emailing me confirmation! Do not use this company even if it is for your dream home! just hope that another agent has the property up which is quite often the case.

Hard to get your deposit back

I rented a house with them. The deposit they took off me still haven't been returned after over a month now. They, along with the landlord, try all they can to reduce the amount of it flagging things that needs to be sorted that had already been there when I moved in. You won't get your deposit back, at least not in full. I Do NOT recomend them. They're quite dishonest.

Poor staff

The bizarre staff works at this agency. spoke for twenty minutes and then booked to view a house, but got no text no email of address and time. When I rang to inquire about my viewing, they had no record of me, hence no booking. Such a good house in S2, Sheffield, cant view or buy because of the staff working at Sheffield branch.

WHB Loughborough - Shocking

Me and my partner were to rent a house with WHB. I went to view the property, which was a very rushed viewing by the agent. Apart from it being a very rushed viewing, the property seemed alright. The current tenant was still living there so the house was still furnished. We ended up agreeing to rent it.Moving day comes, we get to the now empty house, and the landlord is there, decorating. We go in, he immediately says "right let me tell you whats wrong with the place". RED FLAG We take a look around, and the place is absoultley disgusting. Dirty, rising damp on the Walls, paint peeling off. the kitchen was so dirty, with grime everywhere. The landlord himself made us feel very uncomfortable, he wanted to check on us every 2-3 months. He clearly had no idea what he was doing.He had tried to cover up the rising damp by painting over it, so the paint was just peeling off. We immediately backed out and got our money back.It seems that WHB will just let any old fool rent there disgusting houses out. They dont vet the landlords.They are also terrible at getting back to you, they say they will do something and you have to chase them up weeks later because they still havent done it.Me and my partner are now looking to buy a house. We are actively avoiding any houses being sold through WHB. Even if we see the perfect house, we are NOT buying through them.Avoid this company at all costs.

A shambles

Never have I experienced such a shambolic hand over of keys after completion on my property. WhB had no record of my keys nor did they know where they were. After 4 hours of waiting I finally got them (one was a neighbour's key) after a locksmith had to change the locks so that we could get into the property.Whilst the staff were polite and friendly I'm afraid it did not reflect well on the business.

Horrible experience - BE AWARE

Agency in Loughborough / WHB in general. Very poor customer service. Lack of communication. Many promises but just lies. Properties advertised on Friday night. I rang them on Saturday at 9AM, they said that they needed to check availability from vendor and they booked a mortgage advisor for Monday. I kept calling them on this day but no answer.Monday, their advisor called me and said that the appointment is booked for Tuesday and he will confirm that with me on Tuesday morning. And I never have him contact me back. I also rang the agency to book for the viewing and they said that I have booked for Thursday and 'the confirmation email will be arrived shortly'. Nothing in my mailbox. I kept calling them again but no answer. Their Letting department promised that they took a note and will ask Buying department to ring me back. And again nothing back.Tuesday. I rang them again and they said that the property is under offer and they promised to ring me back to confirm. Again nothing is back.Truly their customer service is very poor. You can see around that there are many people have the same experience.
