Good building, some problems with management of the building and app development

M N (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Newfoundland, E14

Oct 2026

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

Great restaurants and bars, amazing open spaces, there should be more open spaces for very young toddlers and there are not enough mid class clothing shops. Amazing transport links. Parking available at Westferry Car Park.

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

They are not quick enough. Tenancy progression team does not even reply. You have to chase them through your agent.

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

That they wouldn’t update the toys and mats in the playroom.

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

This building is perfect location to schools, grocery, retail, battersea power station, etc. Noise level is low. Feels like a busy city setting within a nice community where everyone knows each other.

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

Maintenance and management have been great! Ty & Reuben helped me this week in maintenance. The girls that work the front desk are also fantastic. Anu & Sydney to name a couple, but they are ALL great!

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

Getting parcels can be an issue so I try not to order anything online. They should have someone organizing that room more because the mailmen don’t put things in the correct flats.

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

Good quality local shops, transport links minutes away. Unfortunately parking is expensive. The people in the area are friendly.

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

Within an instant. I feel whenever a have a problem it’s no issue to get resolved.

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

Only that we couldn’t choose an Internet provider. ASK4 is twice the price from almost every internet provider you can find.

An amazing place to live

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

I'd never heard of Earlsfield before I lived here and now it's my favourite place in London. The high street has everything you need and has some great restaurants/cafes. The area has a very family feel to it and I've even built friendships with some of the vendors in the area. Its also just a short bus ride from Southside shopping centre.

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

Never had any issues here. The issues I had were always resolved quickly and communication from staff were good.

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

I didn't know there was air con before moving in and that was such a bonus!
