Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The area is great in general for local shops as there are small corner shops less than a minute walk away and a big Aldi for big shops 5 minutes away. There are also a lot of local businesses very close to the building as well as large areas of grass / benches to sit and relax in. Transport is great as there is a train station 5 minutes away and a tram stop 3 minutes away as well as multiple bus stops around the area. Parking is almost always available, and the noise from cars is never heard despite being very close to a main road. The bins are emptied regularly so I always have space to dispose of my rubbish and there is no antisocial behaviour in this area.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Building management has responded within the same day or the day after depending on the time the concern was raised. Maintenance issues are typically fixed within 1-2 days and other issues are usually resolved within 1-3 days.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Before moving in I wish I knew there was 24/7 night staff who are friendly and will always welcome you home after coming back from a night out.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Lovely area and very accessible to shops, restaurants and bars in the local area. Not much traffic noise or anything like that.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
With my flat, any issues raised have been responded to with in a few days and repaired. Only thing I have found difficult is getting familiar to the systems used to communicate.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I’d asked more questions upon viewing or getting keys just make sure I knew where things such as internet requirements & meter readings where located and also how some things worked in the flat

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Have lived in this area for a few months now and have really enjoyed the house itself. Modern design and great facilities, have really made our house into a home. Parking availability can be a pain after 5pm clock in a two car household who both work full time. Shared back alley and neighbouring houses let the area down, with bin bags piled up.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Maintenance issues have been resolved quickly and with good communication.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Wish we would have known more about neighbours not looking after their gardens, and parking.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Enjoy have a Lidl nearby. Good bus links with 50, 53, 192, 142/42 close by. Green spaces with Birchfield and Platt Field parks nearby. High car traffic volume and noise with poor behaviour and poor parking from car drivers. Large amount of litter on the streets and fly tipping down alleys (I have tried to clear but it keeps coming back...). Bin collections generally good, even when residents don't adhere to waste disposal rules.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Very good, either by email or via the PlaceFirst app. Usually within the same day or as soon as.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Maybe having recycling containers inside the flat and/or coffee table. Space for a small hoover.
