What Our Customers Say

Charlie showed me around two properties recently and was excellent. He was genuinely one of the best agents I’ve met during my search. He was proactive, knowledgeable, and clearly well-informed about both the properties and the circumstances of each sale far more than many of the other agents I’ve encountered. He really elevated the whole viewing experience and made it significantly better. show more
Mr T, Essex, Feb 2026
William H Brown was great to deal with. The sale took a long time due to many issues along the way. Both Sally and Ashley were superb and always helped in whatever way they could. These were really great people to deal with and I am very grateful for the service they provided. show more
Mr M, Essex, Nov 2025
Dear Lee, a big thank you for visiting our property on Thursday. Organising a prompt evaluation the next day is really appreciated. With these figures, we can look at our options going forward. show more
Miss N, Essex, Feb 2025
William H Brown Chelmsford are amazing! The whole team was brilliant during the sale of our flat. They went above and beyond to help us secure a cash buyer and sell our property in 8 weeks. If you want estate agents who are professional, efficient and actually communicate then look no further (I have tried other agents in Chelmsford and can safely say that WHB are the very best!) highly recommended. Special thanks to Ash and Sally who are both fantastic at what they do! show more
Mr S, Essex, Jan 2025

Mrs J, Essex, Oct 2024
We cannot speak highly enough of Sally at William H Brown. Throughout what was supposed to be an eight-week process that stretched into an arduous eight months, Sally was our constant pillar of support. Her patience, perseverance, and proactive communication were truly fantastic! Sally called us regularly, always providing updates and reassurances, never letting us feel forgotten or neglected. She went above and beyond to move the process along, tirelessly working behind the scenes. show more
