A Great Place for Young Professionals

A. S. (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Milliners Yard, L3

Apr 2025

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

Milliners Yard is perfectly located. I dont drive so I really appreciate how city center is a stone's throw away.

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

We had a faulty light when we moved in, they were prompt to fix things.

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

My only complaint - which is more like a small annoyance is how the furniture feet need a cap that distributes its weight more equally. These caps do come off a lot and furniture leaves marks on the floor.

Quiet area sutiable for families

Queen Mary Place, L9

Apr 2025

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

I really like that is a quiet area with only families around. The only bad thing was that my bike was stolen in front of my house, but it was unlocked to be honest.

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

There is a portal online, we use, and it is an effective way to communicate and track the repair requests.

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

No Window Shutters are installed to any window and I need to buy shutters and hire some one to install them.

A few things were not fully functional when I moved in, building management was prompt to sort everything for me!

Welsh Streets, L8

Apr 2025

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

The location is quiet and away from the city centre. There is a big Tesco nearby, but restaurants and cafes on Lark Lane or the city centre are far unless you drive there. There is an ongoing problem with google maps incorrectly showing nearby bus routes. There is no assigned parking, it's just street parking that the landlord takes no responsibility for. There is a moderate amount of traffic noise, not as bad as in the city centre but definitely not quiet.

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

I typically get contacted about seeing to any repairs works within a couple of weeks. Other than that, management response to problems and issues is vague and unsatisfactory.

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

I wish I had known that they would raise the rent by amounts far exceeding inflation, and force us to sign a new fixed term contract in order to stay. I wish I had known that there are huge inconsistencies across the different properties in the policies they apply to tenants, rents and fees tenants pay, and the information they tell tenants.

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

The area is very central and very close to Lime Street train station. It is also very close to attractions such as several museums, libraries and shopping areas. Whilst we have private parking there is also public parking immediately next door. We have not personally had any issues with antisocial behaviour or traffic noise.

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

The building management team are excellent, very friendly and approachable and have dealt with any issues raised immediately.

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

Nothing! Everything is as expected and we are happy.
