Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Overall, living at the Almere has been a smooth experience. There are plenty of high-quality shops and restaurants nearby to suit any mood. Whether you're after a quick bite or a fancy meal, there's no shortage of options. The green spaces are lovely, with places like Willen Lake providing a great spot to unwind. Bin collections are generally reliable, and anti-social behaviour doesn’t seem to be an issue. Most streets feel quiet and safe, though some roads can get a bit noisy. The train station is convenient for London trips, making commuting easy. All in all, it’s a comfortable place to live.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The building management has been responsive and efficient, quickly addressing any concerns raised. Maintenance requests are handled promptly, and communication is clear, making it easy to resolve issues without hassle. Overall, they provide a smooth and well-managed living experience.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
We only did the viewing online since we were moving from abroad, but the process was smooth and hassle-free. The online viewing service provided was clear and well-organized, giving us a good feel for the apartment despite not seeing it in person. We had no issues throughout the experience, and the platform made it easy to explore the property remotely.

Life at the Almere

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The location of the Almere is second to none! Sainsbury's is across the street and we're surrounded by restaurants and bars of all cuisines and budget. The road links are great to get in an out of the City via car, plus one of the best Malls in the country is in walking distance. Its quite at night with no road or City noise and it feels safe to walk around at night too. The garage underneath provides excellent parking plus there's electric chargers for vehicles too.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The Building Management team have been amazing and have gone way beyond the norm to help us settle in and answer any questions we have. They are so genuine and friendly and it resonates in the environment and atmosphere within the Almere building.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The unit doesn't come with a microwave (but maybe that's normal in the UK?)

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Living in Almere is pleasant with many green spaces, good shops, reliable public transport, and low crime. Parking can be tricky at times, but overall it’s a clean, safe, and family-friendly area.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Jasmine, Christina, and the entire Almere team have demonstrated exceptional professionalism and efficiency in addressing all concerns. Their dedication greatly contributes to the building’s high standard of management
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known how friendly and helpful the building management and neighbours would be. It’s a very welcoming community, which made settling in much easier than I had expected.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
We are so pleased with ourselves for finding and choosing the Almere - it is perfect in every single way. The location? We are surrounded by restaurants, we're across the street from our favorite massage studio, Sainsbury's is also just across the street for easy grocery getting, we're a three minute walk to the mall, MK Centre which includes an M&S and John Lewis, etc, etc. We're also very close the MK station for easy access to London on a fast train! Although we haven't used them yet, there's always a few Lime scooters nearby if we want to scoot somewhere faster than walking. The parking garage is excellent, safe and clean. The bins for trash and recycling are easy to access, they have plenty of them and the bin area is kept clean and tidy. Our apartment is very quite - no noise from neighbors or the stree/outside.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Jasmine has really helped us out tremendously with the parking garage to make sure we have a spot that really works for us. So appreciative of her above and beyond help with that!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
How to use the washer/dryer unit is still a mystery to me - I wish there was a video on how to use it, I find the written instructions unclear.
