How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Building management is generally responsive and professional, but communication around utility bills remains unclear and sometimes confusing. I also feel that pets should be strictly prohibited from being unleashed in communal areas for the comfort and safety of all residents.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wish I had known how busy the development and surrounding area can feel at peak times, particularly with traffic and shared facilities. It would also have been useful to have more information beforehand about parking availability and the occasional level of city noise. Overall, however, the development is well connected and convenient, and these are relatively minor considerations.

It’s amazing to live in Quintain living, there are lot of amenities inside the building and around Wembley park as well it’s very busy and safe. The only downside is recently increased violent crimes in area which needs some strong police attention.

Resident team is very responsive , there is 24hr concierge which is always very helpful for any query.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Nothing as such, everything has been pleasant surprise only.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The local area is excellent, with great public transport connections. There are frequent bus services, and the tube station is just a couple of minutes' walk away, making it very convenient to get around. There are plenty of shops, cafés, and restaurants nearby, so everything you need is within easy reach. The neighbourhood is lively, clean, and well maintained, with several small parks and relaxing green spaces that have plenty of benches to sit and unwind. The only minor inconvenience is during events at the stadium, particularly music concerts, when the area can become quite noisy. However, this is mainly noticeable when you're outside or on the balcony. Other than that, everything has been great, and I'm very happy to be part of Quintain Living.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Building management are always approachable and readily available when needed. They are kind, considerate, and grounded in their approach, providing assistance in a supportive and professional manner. They are responsive to requests and consistently offer the necessary help, guidance, and information whenever required.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wasn’t aware of the discounts and exclusive offers available across Wembley Park stores, cafés, and restaurants for Quintain Living residents before I moved in. It’s really great to find out that residents can benefit from these exclusive perks. Definitely a lovely added benefit of living at Wembley Park!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The shops and restaurants nearby are very convenient and the discounts provided to residents is appreciated. The surrounding area around our building is kept clean and there are lots of bins in the area. Although it is nice to have the park just outside our building we have experienced high levels of noise due to the people who gather in and around the park. The noise carries on into the early hours of the morning and so has a significant impact on our sleep and quality of life. We are on the lower levels of the building so perhaps it is not as loud in the top floors. Event days can be difficult due to the crowds. It takes a lot of planning to try to avoid the crowds due to the nature of my work where I rely on public transport and have a changing schedule of work hours.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

The building management respond very quickly to household problems and issues. Unfortunately, I have not had any response to my complaints about noise levels outside the flat which may have been resolved by way of better security.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Good - the staff and maintenance responses are exceptional compared to renting elsewhere. Bad - noise levels and anti social behaviour around the building.
