Looks great from outside

The Clarendon, WD17

Jan 2025

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

Excellent location 4 mins walk to Watford Junction and 3 mins walk to Watford High St and shops and restaurants.

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

Should have known more about the developer and their service and quality history. Clarendon may just be a really bad apple amongst their portfolio of properties. Insist on completing the snagging before you complete your purchase.

What is the best feature of your home:

The views from the roof terrace are the best. Cinema room is fabulous. Location is second to none with main station and High street within 3-4 mins walk with a vast range of shops and restaurants. Central London is a quick 15-20 mins by train.

Landsby, Wembley Park, HA9

Jan 2025

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

The local area has excellent acess to local shops and the Wembley Outlet as well as Jubilee and Metropolitan line on the tube

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

Categorical yes. The team, and particularly Faysal, has always gone above and beyond to make sure any problems or issues are resolved quickly and to my satisfaction.

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

You realise when you move here that there is a nice little community of neighbours in the flats who have always been pleasant!

Gravity Co West Court, TW3

Jan 2025

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

There is no parking near the building. So if you brought your luggage in a car or van like I did, you are screwed. Management will not help you with this. I had the moving van park outside Poundland on the opposite side of the street and had to cross two roads moving my luggage bit by bit. Lucky my family was there to help me.

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

They demanded a cancellation and cleaning fee. They told me to write to three different email addresses and passed me around different people. They ignored my emails and only wanted to bill me for more money. Their sense of community is non existent.

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

I wish I had viewed the property in person and not have relied on their inaccurate video appointment.

While the development itself is beautiful, there’s a growing feeling among residents that the management needs to better

Gallions Point, E16

Jan 2025

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

Living at Gallions Point in E16 is fantastic. The modern apartments, scenic Thames views, and excellent transport links make daily life convenient. Nearby amenities like Gallions Reach Shopping Park and green spaces add to the appeal. The area’s ongoing regeneration creates a vibrant community, blending tranquility with easy access to central London.

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

Parking can be limited and expensive, which might be an issue for those who rely on a car. This is worth considering beforehand.

What is the best feature of your home:

The best aspect of my home at Gallions Point is undoubtedly the breathtaking views. I can watch planes gracefully take off and land at London City Airport, and the glittering skyline of Canary Wharf creates a stunning backdrop, especially at night.

Gallions Point, E16

Jan 2025

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

I really like the location right next to the dlr with new shops opening up and how close it is to the Thames path and greenway which are lovely to run and cycle along

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

How much the value of new builds drop after first purchase

What is the best feature of your home:

I think the finish is lovely and size is great for a 1 bed in for London.
