I wish I had known beforehand how well-managed the property is and how responsive the team would be. It would have significantly influenced my decision to move in sooner.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Close to west end and city centre with loads of bars and restaurants. Close to public transport. Relatively quiet.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Joshua was amazing in dealing with some early issues I had with the flat. He changed the shower head, repressurised the hot water system and got my hob replaced all super promptly.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I would have wanted the option to move a few furniture items out of the flat and take some of my own items with me.

I LOVE LIVING IN CANDLERIGGS!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
There is a tesco, morrisons, sainsburys and M&S all in walking distance from the building. Being in Merchant City there is a whole range of restaurants, bars and coffee shops nearby. I see the candleriggs staff picking up little surrounding the building to keep the area looking nice.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They responded very quickly with solutions that worked for me
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The viewing was very informative. The only thing which is not quite advertised is that only one of the sliding wardrobe doors is mirrored. the non mirrored door was tucked behind the mirrored door at the viewing and I wrongly assumed that they would both be mirrored. I would prefer if they were both mirrored.

Canddlerigges make Glasgow feels like home

Candleriggs, G1

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Canddlerigges is in the best spot in Glasgow City Centre. Everything is in hand reach, from tesco, seinsbury, parkings, shops such as M&S, and many restaurants and coffee shops. The only down side, since it is in the city centre, of course at night the streets become hectic , but the security in the building is high and well maintained.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Once I have an issue with my bathroom, and the team management dealt with it efficiently.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Saskia shared everything about how living in Candleriggs will be. One bad thing is the ben room, is it always full due to high numbers for residents.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
It’s a great location, close to the west end but also on the river. I think it’s very underrated as a location.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I had an issue with my washing machine - it was sorted quickly and efficiently
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I’d engaged more with the social events when I first moved in, they made a huge impact on connecting me with others and that made me feel at home. The granary quays apartment block had a great feeling, staff and residents were respectful and kind and everyone gets on well.
