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

We just moved in, it is very lovely. Close to train station and high street area with plenty of shops and supermarkets.

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

Very professional, positive while providing solutions. All was done in a short timeframe.

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

Can’t find anything specific, maybe it would’ve been easier to set up if we know how the heating system works so we can diagnose the issue.

Alot of nice food places, groceries and clothing in the high street. I feel very safe around with my family and everything is in walking distance

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

Very promptly, put in a request last night and it got fixed in the morning. Stuart was quite professional and helpful

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

The train noise is a bit much. But eventually you get used to it and barely notice

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

Icons homes is the worst agency you could ever rent with. never make the mistake many of us did. uncooperative and do not care what any of us tenants are going through, as long as they’re making bank.

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

management never respond to maintainance emails. i have a maintainance issue outstanding for the past year and a half. they also never respond to regular emails, unless it’s something to do with money. go figure.

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

i wish i had known that renting here would be the worst mistake of my life.

Quick and Helpful Management Response

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

다음과 같이 자연스럽게 영어로 쓸 수 있습니다: Example (100자 이상): Sutton is very convenient because there are many shops, restaurants, and supermarkets nearby. The station is right behind the area, so it is very easy to travel to the City. Transport links are good and commuting is convenient. The area is generally quiet and safe, and there are also some nice green spaces around.

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

I live in flat and had an issue where water was leaking from the ceiling. I reported the problem and the management team responded very quickly. Stuart was very kind and handled the situation promptly. He visited several times to check and help resolve the issue, which I really appreciate

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

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is how good the underfloor heating is. It keeps the flat very warm and comfortable. The soundproofing is also excellent, so it is very quiet and you rarely hear noise from neighbours. These are great features of the building.

Manager response

Thank you so much for your kind words — it really means a lot to us. We're so pleased to hear that you feel comfortable and well looked after in your home, and that the team has been able to support you when needed. Stuart will be especially glad to hear your feedback. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are very happy to have you as part of the community 😊
