Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Moda in Leeds is a 10 minute walk from the city centre and so the main facilities are easily reachable.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They were always very responsive and nothing was ever a big deal for them.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing springs to mind. Living in the development was very stress free

location is excellent

Mustard Wharf at Tower Works, LS1
Jul 2026
Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
location is excellent, walk-able to work and all of the amenities of Leeds. ideal for a social lifestyle. essentially next to the train station also helps a lot with commuting out of the city. Bad is minimal, area is reasonably safe, im never bothered by any noise outside as its just far enough from the center that any suspect behavior doesn't appear often.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They responded promptly, Amie was excellent with my issue raised and managed it very efficiently.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing explicitly, its what you will expect it to be.

Rigid Management & Lack of Support for Families
Muhammed Al Hashedi (Tenant)
Verified Resident
Spinners Yard, LS7
Jul 2026
Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Spinners Yard is situated in a convenient area in Leeds (LS7), offering quick access to the city center, local amenities, and reliable transport links. The surrounding neighborhood is generally walkable and pleasant, though traffic noise along Skinner Lane can occasionally pick up during peak commuting hours.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Management was completely unhelpful and inflexible when issues were raised, defaulting strictly to corporate policy rather than working with residents to find reasonable solutions.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known how strictly management enforces property inventory rules without offering any on-site storage solutions, making it very difficult for families with children to adapt room space to their needs.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Decent location though the college kids screaming and shouting is annoying. Heat can be unbearable in summer.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Kit came to help assist with a hot water problem and was very quick and efficient. 5 stars for him!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
As mentioned above may want to consider heat during summer
