Grasping, deceitful and full of excuses, this is a company to be avoided at all costs. They hike the service charge without consultation, fail to deliver on promises, and plead poverty on the basis that they say they can't recover money owed to them. This refrain is never ending - it went on for years in my case - which means they can't be very good at what they get paid way over the odds to do. Any work they finally get around to doing is often shoddy and substandard. You have been warned.

Poorly maintained property. Bins overflowing with rubbish. Outside doors unsecured. Car Park unsecured. Maintenance men are confrontational and talk down to you when presented with issues. Residential parking spaces rented out to private businesses as a bit in the side for the firm. Victimise ... Read Full Review

I understand that Bright Willis have been in business in Birmingham for a very long time; the fact that they have survived for over a hundred years is evidence that their services offer value for money.

As a leaseholder of my residence since 1964, I have seen Managing Agents come and go over the past 54 years. I can truthfully say that Bright Willis are the best of them all.

Thieves and con-artists of the highest order. I've lived here for over 22 years; they demand at least £1000 a year for maintenance and insurance from me, yet do NOTHING in return, NOTHING, even when simple issues - such as blocked guttering - are repeatedly reported. It's a battle ... Read Full Review

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
