Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Nice area, very close to shops and transport. Often get groups of people outside being loud and looking in windows, but overall couldn’t fault location.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Very dismissive, just gives me excuses or tells me to do certain things to manage the problem instead of them actually correcting root causes.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That management would let it down so much and that there would be a mold issue

Wish I’d known more about valuations and surveys etc
What is the best feature of your home:
The view and balcony, the living room and kitchen open plan arrangement

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The transportation links and commute to work is for me very convenient. I'm very close to Piccadilly line and Victoria. The street is quite but close to a very busy and noisy area
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Not very well. I'm still have a pending issue with old payments, before I bought the flat, and the NHG never came back to me with a proper answer.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
NHG is not very professional and never listen and answer
What is the best feature of your home:
The very central position and being close to the public transports
