What Our Customers Say

William H Brown have been fantastic throughout my journey selling my house. They made the process clear and easy, in particular Sarah Rhodes kept communication channels open and answered all my questions promptly. Sarah and Liz (branch manager) were very understanding when we decided the best course for us was to not go through with a sale, and rather purchase the full share of our home ourselves. Kirsty Ellis has also been excellent when dealing with our mortgage queries. Excellent branch. show more
Mr C, Nottinghamshire, Feb 2026
My sale of a rental property, turned out to be more complex than expected, but Sarah Rhodes handled it with unwavering professionalism, despite numerous delays Sarah was proactive and persistent. Her meticulous due diligence caught issues early, and her tenacity in resolving them ensured everything ultimately went through seamlessly. Truly a first class service! show more
Mr T, Dorset, Jan 2026
We are extremely pleased with the entire team at William H Brown. They efficiently managed the sale of our house, handling everything promptly and presenting our property very well. Their excellent work led to a quick sale, enabling us to secure the deposit for our new build house without delay. Sarah was particularly helpful throughout the process. She provided invaluable peace of mind and support when the developers of our next house began making threats. We were also very satisfied with their mortgage services. The team helped us secure a great deal and handled all the necessary administration. We truly believe we couldn't have navigated this process as smoothly without their assistance. Due to this exceptional service, we have become lifetime members. If we ever sell again, we will definitely choose William H Brown. show more
Mr C, Nottinghamshire, Dec 2025
I’ve had both selling and purchasing experiences with the Retford team, and they have always been fantastic. Nothing is ever too much trouble—they keep you fully informed throughout the process, and sometimes that’s all that’s needed to keep what feels like an almighty process moving forward. They are always available to answer any questions, and the team is incredibly understanding of personal circumstances, doing their absolute best to ensure your transaction runs as smoothly as possible. A special thank you to Robbie, Liz, and both Sarah’s (I’ll always get them mixed up!)—all very down-to-earth and approachable. I would gladly use their services again in the future. I highly recommend W H Brown and would like to personally thank all the team at Retford for their support over the years. show more
Miss L, Nottinghamshire, Nov 2025
Many thanks to Liz and Sarah K for all the help with our sale. The process took much longer than expected due to unexpected complications down the chain. We were constantly updated on progress with the sale and nothing was too much trouble. Many thanks again show more
Mr J, Nottinghamshire, Sep 2025
Elizabeth Dinmore and Sarah Rhodes along with all the other members at William H Brown Estate agents in Retford were so friendly and always helpful. I would have no hesitation recommending them if you were looking to sell. Very professional yet so down to earth. Love group of people. show more
Mr P, Derbyshire, Sep 2025
This is the second time I’ve used W H Brown’s estate agency. The first time didn’t work out too well basically because my house was put on sale at the wrong time - period leading up to Christmas & New Year. So I took it off sale and tried again in spring and within a couple of weeks my house sold. I must give special praise to Sarah, she is such a delightful person with a positive attitude and attention to detail. Any issues I had was dealt with by Sarah with efficiency and ensured I was happy with the outcome. I would recommend anyone to use W H Brown’s whether it’s to buy or sell but please be patient, all house sales take a long time. show more
