William H Brown were the best agents in Colchester - Jonathan, Sam and Ellie were all very professional and kept us up to date even before the solicitor at times! Lovely people that cared about their work and people. Thank you. show more
Mr H, Essex, Dec 2025
After a long drawn out moving process we finally thought we were going to get a date to exchange and another hiccup, Sam was right on top of this, made the necessary calls and helped resolve the problem efficiently and swiftly, without Sam helping out I think it would have gone on for a lot longer. We finally exchanged and moved 6 days later. Sam was professional at all times and he never made me feel a nuisance when I kept calling. Thank you Sam for everything. I would highly recommend William H Brown at St Christopher Road, Colchester. show more
Mr B, Essex, Dec 2025
My parents choose this Estate Agents to sell a flat they owned, after loosing my mum I took on the role of dealing with the sale of the flat. I dealt with Sam Wooldridge who went above and beyond, made a difficult time a lot easier, he was brilliant at keeping me updated with the progress and although it took a long time for the sale to go through, which was due to other communications, nothing to do with Estate agents, Sam was brilliant as where the solicitors. Thank you. show more

Feefo Reviews

Great Service

Professional & prompt service

Outstanding service

Connor Cook provided an excellent service to us throughout the entire experience, from being transparent with all the information, to sharing all the required details on a timely manner. Going above and beyond to provide us with our desired Mortgage (he went as far as staying after 9pm to close the perfect deal for us) and maintain constant contact during the entire process, we couldn't be happier we've been provided such an excellent service by Connor.

Great service

I can’t recommend Connor highly enough! He went above and beyond to make the whole mortgage process as smooth and stress-free as possible. From start to finish, he was incredibly helpful, patient, and thorough, taking the time to explain every detail in a way that was easy to understand.
What I really appreciated was that Connor spoke like a normal person - no confusing jargon or overcomplicated explanations, just clear, honest advice that made everything make sense. He always made me feel supported and confident in my decisions, and nothing was ever too much trouble for him.
Thank you, Connor, for all your help, you truly made the process as good as it could be!

Amazing service from Connor Cook

I cannot recommend Connor Cook highly enough as a mortgage broker. From my very first conversation with him, Connor impressed me with his professionalism, warmth, and in-depth knowledge of the mortgage market. He took the time to understand my individual circumstances, goals, and preferences, and then tailored his advice to suit my needs perfectly.

What really stood out about Connor was how approachable and patient he was throughout the entire process. Buying a home can be stressful and complicated, but Connor went above and beyond to make everything as clear and straightforward as possible. He explained every step in detail, answered all of my questions (no matter how small), and always made me feel confident in the decisions I was making.

Connor was proactive in finding the most competitive mortgage options available and worked tirelessly to secure the best deal for me. He kept in regular contact with timely updates, so I never felt left in the dark. His attention to detail and commitment to getting things right gave me complete peace of mind.

Above all, Connor genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for me, which made the whole experience feel personal. His professionalism, reliability, and dedication made a potentially stressful process feel smooth and even enjoyable.

If you are looking for a mortgage broker who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and truly client-focused, I wholeheartedly recommend Connor Cook. He is an absolute asset to anyone navigating the mortgage process.
